Jingle Bell Heist

On a frosty Christmas Eve in London, two down-on-their-luck hourly workers, Sophia and Nick, hatch a plan to pull off a daring heist at a posh department store. The job is risky and the city glitters with holiday lights as they dodge alarms, crowds, and their own doubts. As they improvise, old insecurities collide with a surprising attraction, and a stubborn spark grows between them. What starts as a score becomes a test of trust, ambition, and dignity, and the clues along the way hint that the true payoff might be a chance at a fresh start together. By night’s end, the caper promises more than loot, offering a playful promise of romance amid the season's chaos.

Directed by Michael Fimognari, Jingle Bell Heist is an original screenplay by Abby McDonald and Amy Reed. The festive crime caper leans on witty dialogue, warm chemistry, stylish London visuals, and holiday energy with Olivia Holt and Connor Swindells headlining.

Reception will likely stress the movie's breezy mix of holiday atmosphere and caper humor, along with a theme of resilience and second chances. The romance feels earned, not forced, and the humor keeps pace with suspense, making this a light but warm seasonal option.
