This year’s selection of Christmas movies on Max is looking decidedly slender compared to last year’s variety. It seems that the streamer has whittled down the library of holiday hits that once had a home on the streamer formerly known as HBO Max. In their place are a lot of low-budget Lifetime made-for-TV Christmas movies, courtesy of David Zaslav’s Discovery networks.
Only half of our selections from 2022 remain on Max for this year’s Christmas season — but that doesn’t mean you can’t find some holiday merriment here. In our newly updated list of the best Christmas movies on Max, we’ve added Elf, A Hollywood Christmas, The Polar Express, Holiday Affair. Together with A Christmas Story, A Christmas Story Christmas, and more, you’ll be able to enjoy some heartwarming films on Max just in time for Christmas.
Looking for more holiday picks? We’ve also assembled guides to the best Christmas movies on Netflix and the best Christmas movies on Amazon Prime.
