- These films vary from sweet to forgettable, but one has been deemed unwatchable.

- "Our Little Secret" comes in at third place and has a lot going on in terms of plot.
- In second place is "Hot Frosty," this film makes near to no sense but has a sweet message to it.
- "That Christmas" comes in on top, with a similar structure to "Love Actually," it features an all-star cast and a perfect runtime of 92 minutes.
- Netflix has clearly made strides in creating their own Christmas movies, becoming a rival to industry giants Hallmark and Lifetime.

If Monument Valley 3 can’t get eyes on Netflix Games, what can?
- Monument Valley 3, another mesmerizing puzzler that’s custom-made for small touchscreens, is the latest high-quality mobile release of 2024 that feels destined to slip under the radar.
- It closes out an odd year for services like Netflix and Apple Arcade, both of which have long struggled to be treated like top-tier gaming subscription services despite their increasing hit rates.
- Monument Valley 3 doesn’t change its predecessors’ formula that much, but it doesn’t need to.
- The first Monument Valley was a hit for a reason, as it gave players a soothing puzzle game filled with mind-bending imagery.
- The innovations to that formula are small, expanding its array of illusions.
- Outside of that standby puzzling, Ustwo sharpens its chops elsewhere.
- It ups the ante aesthetically with richer colors and more visually inventive set pieces that play with new art styles.
- Netflix isn’t the only mobile gaming service that struggles to earn recognition.
- There’s no point in putting much stock in awards, but they can tell a broader story.
- Perhaps it’s a chicken-and-egg situation. If the press isn’t covering a game, that generally means that they don’t believe there’s much reader interest in it (i.e., traffic).
