The Princess Switch
Vanessa Hudgens stars as the Duchess of Montenaro who decides to switch places with a "commoner" from Chicago who looks just like her. This fun and light-hearted movie came out in 2018 and usually trends on the streaming website around Christmas, so it's clearly popular.

A Bad Moms Christmas Film
If you're after something a little more grown-up and less cheesy, A Bad Moms Christmas Film could be the one for you. Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell and Kathryn Hahn all feature in this hilariously raunchy film that follows the original title, but with a holiday twist.

The Grinch
One for the kids, perhaps, but another story that would be rude to exclude at Christmas. Benedict Cumberbatch voices the classic Dr. Suess character as the grumpy resident of Whoville who seeks to ruin Christmas.
