Ranking November 2018's Movies From Worst To Best
16. The Christmas Chronicles
Rotten Tomatoes Score: 66% (5.8/10)
Box Office: The Christmas Chronicles went straight-to-Netflix.
Verdict: Netflix traditionally dumps a heap of forgettable Christmas films on their streaming platform this time of year, and the one actually worth seeking out this year stars Kurt freaking Russell as a gruff, quick-witted Santa Claus who loves to sing.
The core of the film may be pure, generic holiday schmaltz, but Russell gives a genuinely stellar performance, fully committed to the part and playing it surprisingly straight for the most part.
The definition of easy viewing, and Russell's involvement ensures adults should get a kick out of it alongside their kids.
