Or do men just say that to wind women up? Who seem to get really annoyed by it to much amusement.

I’ve never met anyone who actually took offense in that statement. Of course it is.

Set at Christmas? Check
Use of Christmas songs? Check
Is Christmas/Christmassy things used in dialogue? Check
Is it being Christmas time an actual part of the films plot? Check
Is the film about bringing a family together? Check

There is no way that it is not a Christmas film.

Maybe, maybe not.

But the answer is yes. By far the best one.

I mean, he's literally trying to reunite with his Wife to rekindle/save their marriage at Christmas Time...

It's pretty much the same plot as Home Alone.

It's about a man overcoming the odds to be with his family at Christmas. Of course it's a Christmas film.

Bit much no? I can’t imagine pep or any of the city all stars making a joke like that.
Wanted to make it myself but you beat me to it

I think only those who haven't watched it can claim it isn't.

It's not a classic Christmas tale nor does it have santa but then neither does Home Alone so if that is then die hard is.

It's no Muppets Christmas Carol though...

Jingle All The Way is the only christmas film that matters.

It contains snow, angels and Jimmy Stewart as a subprime capitalist pigdog, of course Die Hard is a Christmas movie. Just have to accept that women get it wrong about movies.

Die hard is to Christmas movies what the Martian is to comedy.
