There are tons of great movies to watch during the Holiday season.

From funny movies like National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation to wholesome family movies like Little House On The Prairie: A Merry Ingalls Christmas or It's A Wonderful Life, but I am here to tell you that the greatest Christmas movie of them all is Die Hard.

Now, I know what you may be thinking: Die Hard Is NOT a Christmas movie?! However, you're wrong thinking that, am going to tell you why.

There are a number of things that make a Christmas movie a Christmas movie, things like family gatherings and get-togethers, nostalgia for the holidays, Christmas accouterments, your typical seasonal cliches, and of-course winter.

The next time you watch Die Hard, watch it with these things in mind and you will see just what I see, Die Hard is the greatest Christmas movie ever.

There is a point in every Christmas movie when the protagonist realizes what really matters and then fights with everything in their heart to achieve that.

Those are just 4 reasons why Die Hard is the greatest Christmas movie ever. I bet the next time you watch it you will agree with me.
