Take several seats, Home Alone, Die Hard, and Love, Actually, because The Ref is actually the greatest Christmas movie of all time.
This is The Ref. It is the greatest Christmas movie of all time.
In case you haven't seen it, Denis Leary plays Gus, a cat burglar who is forced to take bickering, on-the-verge-of-divorce Caroline and Lloyd Chasseur (played by Judy Davis and Kevin Spacey) hostage when his plans go awry. With the Chasseurs' delinquent son and snooty in-laws on the way home for Christmas, Gus is forced to play referee between all of them and navigate all the drama a family can offer, or risk being captured by the police. It is as black as a black comedy gets, and it's incredible. Here are 16 reasons it is the greatest Christmas movie of all time.
