Home Alone (1990)
Comfy clothes, hot cocoa, and the best Christmas atmosphere of any Christmas movie.
Juwon Kim

It's already December, which means Christmas is creeping closer. Honestly, nothing is better than wearing comfy clothes, a cup of hot cocoa, and a Christmas movie in the background for the Christmas vibe. For Christmas this year, I would like to recommend one of THE best all-time classic Christmas movies for all ages: Home Alone (1990). This movie really gives that feeling of nostalgia, with comedic elements, but most importantly, it gives the best Christmas atmosphere out of all the Christmas movies.
The film follows Kevin, an eight-year-old boy, and his family, who are planning on going on a Christmas vacation. On the day they were leaving, the family was so occupied that they accidentally left Kevin alone at home. This is where HOME ALONE begins… While Kevin was so excited to have the house by himself, he encountered two burglars who were trying to rob his house. Kevin, who was fearful and excited at the same time, finds a creative way to keep the burglar out of his house.
I would recommend Home Alone (1990) mainly because of how the movie is watchable without much thought, contains many comedic elements, and (most importantly) also has many Christmas elements. It is fun to watch with families and friends, acting as something to bring your family and friends closer together.
So, if you are looking for a fun movie to watch during Christmas, I would definitely recommend Home Alone (1990) to watch.
