I think we've run this one before, but it's a holiday tradition to pointlessly argue it.
So, let's do it every year! It's not even December yet!

I say that it is, most emphatically.
It's much better than dumb Tim Allen movies pontificating over "the true meaning of Christmas" with vapid "teenage elves" with vocal fry in their voices.
Or Hallmark Christmas movies showing love to zombies.

Sure, why not!

Attaboy!
That's how most elections are decided!

Absolutely it's a Christmas movie. Consider:

1. It takes place at Christmas; ergo it is a Christmas movie.

2. It is a heart-warming story of families being together at Christmas, and one man's trials & tribulations as he journeys to be his family for the Holidays.

3. It is a morality tale that reminds us that even though it is the season of good will to all men & women, naughty boys & girls do not get the presents they asked for.

Yup. It's not Christmas until Hans Gruber falls off the Nakatomi Tower.

Yep! What McKinstry said! Not Christmas till Hans Gruber falls off Nakatomi Tower!

I would go the other way. It is an action film that happens to be set at Christmas time. Not a true Christmas movie.
