Mary

You might not have anticipated finding a touching coming-of-age story about Mary and the birth of Jesus on Netflix this December, but they are releasing the film “Mary” on Dec. 6. The movie follows Mary’s loneliness after the miraculous conception and birth of Jesus, compelling her to flee with her newborn and Joseph to avoid those seeking to harm Jesus.

Carry-On

Hey there! You know how everyone always talks about Christmas movies being all about magic, joy, and cheer? Well, I’m here to argue that a Christmas thriller can be just as captivating!

Starring Taron Egerton, Jason Bateman, Logan Marshall-Green, Sofia Carson, and Danielle Deadwyler, this movie is set to become the next big thriller sensation on Netflix when it premieres on Dec. 13.

The Six Triple Eight

Instead of “Skip!”, consider rephrasing as: “Perhaps not for everyone, especially during the holiday season, ‘The Six Triple Eight’ is a captivating war movie. Kerry Washington, in her role as a major in the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion during World War II, delivers an outstanding performance in this film directed by Tyler Perry.
