Each year at RunPee we get a little closer to reviewing all the Christmas films — at least, all of the good and/or notorious ones that popular culture appreciates. One year I tried to take on some Hallmark Christmas movies and found I couldn’t quite go that far down the sickly sweet rabbithole, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have a full Santa sack of great film reviews for your browsing pleasure.
Choose from Modern, Classic, and Non-Christmas Christmas films, as well as a few Holiday Specials & Shorts, and some RunPee Holiday Errata. We add new review links to this list all the time, so keep checking back. (And keep checking it twice, to see which movies are naughty and which are nice). What are your favorites? What hits your annual Xmas rewatch list?

Update: We’ve added a bunch of new Christmasy reviews for 2021 and more are going up through the holidays until January 2022. In fact, UK RunPeep Rob is making an entire section for every movie and TV episode based on A Christmas Carol. It’s going to be huge. Stay tuned. 😉

A Merry Movie Christmas – The RunPee Family’s Favorite Holiday Films
Don’t miss your favorite movie moments because you have to pee or need a snack. Use the RunPee app (Androidor iPhone) when you go to the movies. We have Peetimes for all wide release films every week, including Matrix: Resurrections, Spider-Man: No Way Home, and coming soon Morbius. We have literally thousands of Peetimes—from classic movies through today's blockbusters. You can also keep up with movie news and reviews on our blog, or by following us on Twitter @RunPee. If there's a new film out there, we've got your bladder covered.
