Itâs beginning to look a lot like chaos⊠and weâre absolutely here for it. Oh. What. Fun. is the holiday movie we didnât know we needed â a witty, heartfelt, and slightly off-the-rails Christmas comedy starring Michelle Pfeiffer as the matriarch whoâs had enough of picture-perfect holiday pressure.
Streaming exclusively on Prime Video on December 3, 2025, this festive treat from director Michael Showalter (The Big Sick, Hello, My Name Is Doris) promises laughter, family drama, and a much-needed reminder that sometimes the best holiday magic happens when everything goes wrong.
đ Plot: When Mom Goes Missing, the Holidays Really Begin
Meet Claire Clauster (Michelle Pfeiffer) â the unshakeable holiday hero in her family. Every December, Claire transforms her home into a winter wonderland with Pinterest-perfect cookies, beautifully wrapped presents, and holiday cheer on demand. But this year, her grown kids, distracted husband, and self-absorbed grandkids are too caught up in their own drama to notice what (or who) makes the season special.
And thatâs when it happens: they forget Claire.
But Claireâs not sitting around waiting for an apology. Instead, she vanishes on a holiday adventure of her own, complete with mistletoe, mayhem, and a long-overdue serving of self-care. As her clueless family scrambles to find her and fix their Christmas, Claire rediscovers the joy of a holiday thatâs just for her.
đ Cast: A Glittering Ensemble of Holiday All-Stars
