Holiday Heist Hits the Right Notes on Netflix
LondonFri Nov 28 2025
A new movie is making waves on Netflix this holiday season. "Jingle Bell Heist" is a comedy about two thieves who team up to rob a big department store in London. Sophia and Nick, played by Olivia Holt and Connor Swindells, start off as rivals but end up falling for each other while planning their heist. The movie is directed by Michael Fimognari and written by Abby McDonald and Amy Reed.
The film has a 60% score on Rotten Tomatoes, which is not amazing, but it has become a hit with viewers. It's currently number one on Netflix's Top 10 Movies in the U. S. today. It's even beating other popular movies like "Champagne Problems, " "In Your Dreams, " and "KPop Demon Hunters. " However, it hasn't made it to the top 10 globally yet.
Netflix releases a lot of holiday movies each year, and this one stands out. It's a light-hearted film that captures the spirit of Christmas. The story is about two criminals who become lovers, but it doesn't go too deep into their romance. Instead, it focuses on the fun and festive aspects of the holiday season.
Critics have mixed feelings about the movie. Some say it's a fun and enjoyable watch, while others think it could have been better. But no matter what the critics say, viewers seem to be loving it. It's a perfect movie to watch during the holidays, with plenty of laughs and a festive atmosphere.
