There are plenty of holiday-related movies but some stand out above the rest. Ahead, find out what films are considered by Rotten Tomatoes to be the 10 best Christmas movies ever made.

But first, here's how the site put the list together. They started by narrowing down Fresh movies — the term "Fresh" means more than 60% of its reviews are positive — that focus on the holidays and the spirit of Christmas.
