What to Watch calls The Holdovers one of the best movies of the year in our official review, so if you are curious where you can watch the movie to enjoy it for yourself, we've got everything that you need to know on that right here.
The movie reunites Paul Giamatti and Alexander Payne, who previously worked together in 2004's Sideways, which was a critical darling and won Payne his first Academy Award (should have earned Giamatti an Oscar nomination too, for our money, but alas). The Holdovers is looking like it could have similar success with the 2024 Oscars.
But before any awards are handed out, here is what you need to know on how to watch The Holdovers right now.
