What’s new on Amazon Prime Video in December 2023

Blair Marnell

In Christmas lore, the good children of the world can expect presents under the Christmas tree, while bad children will get coal in their stockings. Looking at the films and TV shows coming in December to Amazon Prime Video, we can only conclude that Prime Video thinks that we’ve all been very bad this year because our Christmas present on December 25th is the Prime Video premiere of this year’s biggest box office bomb, The Flash, to be followed two days later by another infamous bomb, Terminator: Genisys. That’s not the most auspicious way to close out 2023.

It’s not all bad news for Prime Video subscribers in December. Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City is arriving this month, as is Reacher season 2. Sound of Freedom, one of this year’s most controversial titles, is also coming to Prime Video on December 26. Keep reading for our complete roundup of everything new on Amazon Prime Video in December 2023. Our picks for the month are in bold.

The best Christmas movies on Amazon Prime Video right now
Dan Stevens and Christopher Plummer in The Man Who Invented Christmas.

Most of the major streaming services are currently overflowing with cheesy Christmas movies that never saw the inside of a movie theater. Instead, their Christmas flicks are either streaming originals or films that migrated from Lifetime, Hallmark, or any other TV network that pumps out dozens of Christmas movies every year.

Amazon Prime Video has a lot of those films, too. Fortunately, Prime Video is also the home of actual Christmas classics that offer so much more than these made-for-TV flicks. For this holiday season, we're throwing the spotlight on The Man Who Invented Christmas, Scrooged, Last Christmas, and Violent Night as they join our roundup of the best Christmas movies on Amazon Prime Video right now.

What’s new on Paramount+ in December 2023
The cast of Finestkind.

Have you ever gotten a gift that was so awful that you weren't sure if it was meant as a joke? Paramount+ has something like that in December with its new original movie, Finestkind. It's a crime drama with a top-notch cast including Ben Foster, Toby Wallace, Jenna Ortega, and Tommy Lee Jones. The film was also produced by Paramount+'s go-t0-guy, Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone), and directed by L.A. Confidential screenwriter Brian Helgeland. However, Finestkind also has some truly awful reviews that gave it a dismal 25% score on Rotten Tomatoes. So we don't have a lot of faith in that one.

A more promising new addition this month is Thriller 40, a documentary special about the impact of Michael Jackson's most famous record, Thriller. Additionally, several films have been added to the lineup, but most of the A-list titles appear to have been reserved for the highest tier, Paramount+ with Showtime.
