It’s entertainment gifts across the board on Netflix this month, as the streamer goes above and beyond the usual December fair.

The unexpected sequel to the 2003 classic Chicken Run definitely makes our top picks for December, along with the first part of Zack Snyder’s epic Star Wars fan-fic Rebel Moon. Then there’s Bradley Cooper’s latest bid for an Academy Award, Maestro, an intriguing, hard-to-describe apocalyptic thriller with a heavyweight cast, and an adorable stop-motion Pokemon adventure for the whole family.

And that’s just Netflix’s original content. Also look out for this year’s sequel Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, which debuts on Christmas Day, and a host of big name video games coming to Netflix’s mobile gaming offering, so you can play wherever the holidays take you.
