Better yet, the movie is celebrating its 15th anniversary. Four Christmases was released on Nov. 26, 2008, and it's a true look at late-aughts culture and style.

The movie stars Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon as a couple who reluctantly must visit each of their parents' separate Christmas events. The comedy has a seriously impressive supporting cast, including Mary Steenburgen, Tim McGraw, Kristin Chenoweth, Sissy Spacek, Jon Favreau, and Robert Duvall.
