A warm and fuzzy holiday movie, 8-bit Christmas revolves around Jake, now an adult, as he recounts a story for the ages.

Jake tells his daughter all about how he got a Nintendo Entertainment System on Christmas Day in 1988, the most coveted video game system of the time. But how far did he have to go to see his dream of owning it come true?

The movie is earnest and funny, with a solid cast and heart-warming throwbacks. If you're looking for a festive watch, you can't go wrong with this one.
