RRR Glimpse: A grandeur that we expected from SS Rajamouli


10 new Christmas films to stream on Netflix, Prime, Disney+, iPlayer and ITV this week
So, you are looking for something to watch. The TV is on, the lights are twinkling, and every streaming service claims to have the perfect Christmas film. It is overwhelming. This is not another vague list of hundreds of titles. It is a straight-talking guide to what is new and worth attention in December.
We cut through the clutter, from the big streaming launches to the one-off television specials. Here is what to stream and when to tune in.

A single mother pretends to be Santa at a ski resort and enters a holiday romance. It is pitched as light, easy streaming and sits in Netflix’s December rom-com lane.

A corporate executive sent to France meets a champagne heir and a slow-burn affection follows. It wants to be a Christmas film without leaning on garish tropes, more lifestyle fantasy than tinsel. Netflix has concentrated its December slate up front, which explains the clustering.

Michelle Pfeiffer plays a mother sidelined by her demanding family before Christmas. It is a comedy about resentment rather than goodwill, and Amazon is pushing her performance as the draw.

Richard Curtis returns to festive storytelling in animated form. Instead of one plot, the film connects several stories across a coastal town. Netflix is aiming for cross-family reach.

Final word
A week like this shows why festive streaming keeps expanding: platforms do not need a single dominant hit; they need multiple titles covering distinct moods. December becomes individual choice, and services respond with volume, risk and enough novelty to reduce the scroll.
Right, that should be enough to be getting on with. Happy watching, and try not to eat all the mince pies in one go.
