From war dramas like “The Six Triple Eight” to heartwarming holiday movies such as “That Christmas”, there’s truly something for everyone.
Netflix consistently delivers a wide array of enjoyable and enriching films to its subscribers, and their December lineup is no exception. Although several holiday movies have already been released, more are due in the coming weeks. But fear not if you’re not into holiday flicks; Netflix has an abundance of other options available too!
Next month offers a diverse selection of movies, ranging from high-octane action flicks to heartwarming true stories. No matter if someone is seeking inspiration, an adrenaline rush, or a dose of festive cheer, Netflix caters to all tastes and preferences.
That Christmas
Stream on December 4
This Christmas movie is set in the animated town of Wellington-on-Sea, where multiple stories intertwine among its residents. However, when a massive blizzard strikes the town, disrupting everyone’s plans – even Santa Claus’ – the story unfolds as it shows the relatable struggles that families often face regarding high expectations for significant events like Christmas. The film explores how things can sometimes go awry on these special days, leaving one to wonder if the day is ruined, only for unexpected moments of joy and connection to emerge.
While the show seeks to underscore the essence of what truly matters in life amidst family’s usual turmoil, it’s often the mere presence of loved ones that makes everyday moments memorable. A touching tale encompassing themes of love and solitude during the yuletide season, That Christmas transcends the glamour and sparkle of gifts and decorations. Stream That Christmas starting Dec. 4.

Mary
Stream on December 6
Mary narrates a profound biblical story, portraying the mother of Jesus Christ during his divine manifestation and nativity. In her youth, Mary resided in Nazareth with her parents, Anne (Hilla Vidor) and Joachim (Ori Pfeffer). Her life was about to take an unexpected turn as she was betrothed to Joseph (Ido Tako), a man who was essentially unknown to her. Subsequently, an angel appeared to her, revealing that she would bear the son of God.
In spite of being engaged, Mary’s miraculous conception necessitates her concealment. Accompanying her is Joseph, as they both strive to find a safe haven. Upon the arrival of Jesus, whispers about his lineage challenge King Herod’s (Anthony Hopkins) authority, causing him to issue an order for the Slaughter of the Innocents – a horrifying event where countless babies are slain. Forced to escape, Mary, Joseph, and Jesus seek refuge in Egypt. A tale that beautifully portrays love above all else, Mary is essentially a moving coming-of-age story suitable for viewers of all faiths. Mary will be available for streaming on Dec. 6.

The Six Triple Eight
Stream on December 20
Under the direction of Tyler Perry, the film titled “The Six Triple Eight” is a gripping war drama that focuses on the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, an extraordinary all-female and all-black battalion during World War II. This unit’s story is derived from a 2019 article by Kevin M. Hymel in WWII History magazine. The movie recounts the true tale of this unique Women’s Army Corps unit of color, who made an indispensable contribution to the war effort despite facing discrimination and navigating an alien country amidst a colossal global conflict. Their mission was to clear a three-year backlog of mail for soldiers fighting far from home.
6 months before the internet and GPS, an astonishing team of 855 courageous and gifted women took up the challenge to deliver 17 million letters across the nation, bringing solace and hope to our war-stricken frontlines during a time when America desperately needed it. You can watch their inspiring story unfold on December 20th, in the movie Six Triple Eight.
