The 20 Best Christmas Movies On Netflix In 2019

2) The Christmas Prince: A Royal Wedding After people lost their collective sh*t over A Christmas Prince, Netflix did what it does best: makes a seriously corny sequel. And, just like another princess-themed franchise (cough The Princess Diaries cough) this time, theres a royal wedding going down. Expect ridiculous hijinks, cringe-worthy banter, and truly insane wedding dress designs. File this Christmas movie under "So Bad, It's Good."

While shes there, she meets a woman who looks just like her and is engaged to a prince. The two switch lives for a bit andsurprise, surpriseromantic entanglements ensue.
