New on Netflix: November 2023: Top Picks

All the light we cannot see .

Based on the international best-selling novel by Anthony Doerr, All the Light We Cannot See is a sweeping drama set during World War II. It centers on two characters: Marie-Laure (Aria Mia Loberti) and Werner (Louis Hofmann). Marie-Laure is a blind French girl who takes shelter at her uncle’s house in Saint-Malo after Paris is invaded by German forces, and Werner is a highly intelligent but naive German boy with a talent for repairing radios. In ordinary circumstances, these two people would never meet, but the brutal conflict sees their paths collide in ways that are surprising and heartbreaking. Set across four episodes, All the Light We Cannot See will be a must-watch for readers of Doerr’s acclaimed novel.  

Premieres Nov. 2 on  Netflix .

Selling Sunset Season 7

You might think that after so many years of non-stop drama, real estate agents of The Oppenheim Group might have finally found a way to work in harmony. But you’d be wrong. As the trailer for Selling Sunset Season 7 displays, the O Group is about to weather another storm of office politics, constantly shifting alliances and a housing market that has never been more cutthroat. This time the stakes are even higher as the agents compete for a jaw-dropping new listing and some old friendships are tested. As series regular Chrishell Stause declares “The gloves are coming off” this season, so expect explosive arguments, heated encounters and some shocking revelations. And in between all the drama, they might even sell some houses. 

Premieres Nov. 3 on  Netflix .

Sylvester Stallone has always been an underdog. Growing up his love of cinema was a way to escape his difficult childhood, and even as he got older he never lost his scrappy spirit. He’s spent the last 50 years entertaining legions of fans through his beloved characters and legendary Hollywood franchise, from Rocky to Rambo. Even when facing countless knockbacks, Sly has always pushed forward and this documentary tells the behind-the-scenes story of his journey and how it's reflected in the characters he’s brought to the big screen. This retrospective doc offers unmatched insight into Sly’s life and career with input from the main himself and the people who know him best. A true must-watch for anybody with a fondness for 80s action stars, or a desire to see the underdog succeed.  

Premieres Nov. 3 on Netflix .

David Fincher, the critically acclaimed auteur behind the likes of Seven, Fight Club and Gone Girl, returns to the thriller genre in The Killer. This new Netflix Original has generated plenty of buzz already and sees Michael Fassbender step into the eponymous role as an emotionless assassin. The methodical hitman is thrown into an international manhunt after a job gone wrong, and forced to battle his employers, he must grapple with his own inner demons in an increasingly complex mission that he insists isn’t personal. With Fincher behind the camera expect a slick and stylish thriller that will keep you hooked until the very end. Plus, with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross on the music, it’ll sound as good as it looks.   

Premieres Nov. 10 on Netflix .

The Crown Season 6 Part 1 

It’s the beginning of the end for The Crown this month as the hugely popular drama kicks off the first part of its sixth and final season. Four episodes will premiere on Thursday, Nov. 16 and these will follow Princess Diana (Elizabeth Debicki) in the final weeks of her life leading up to her death in August 1997. As her relationship with Dodi Fayed (Khalid Abdalla) develops, the paparazzi's interest in the so-called “people’s princess” only intensifies. The infamous Paris car crash shocked the world, and there’s been much speculation as to how The Crown’s creator Peter Morgan will balance being respectful to the real-life tragedy while also wringing as much drama as possible from the events. We’ll shortly have an answer.  

Premieres Nov. 16 on Netflix .

Best. Christmas. Ever! 

Charlotte (Heather Graham) and Jackie (Brandy Norwood) are former childhood friends, but now only stay in contact via a boastful holiday newsletter that Jackie sends every year to a dissatisfied Charlotte. After fate brings the two back together, and forces them to spend the festive season together, Charlotte becomes obsessed with proving that her friend’s life is not as perfect as she portrays. With her reluctant husband (Jason Biggs) in tow, Charlotte’s mission threatens to derail everybody's Christmas with predictably comedic results. This glossy holiday movie should be a treat for the whole family this Christmas.  

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off

2010’s Scott Pilgrim vs, the World was a box office disappointment, but over the last decade, it’s developed a cult following and has stuck around in the pop culture lexicon. While a proper sequel is highly unlikely, this month Netflix are offering up the next best thing: An animated series with pretty much the entire cast reprising their roles. That means Michael Cera is back as Scott Pilgrim while Mary Elizabeth Winstead returns as Ramona Flowers. Other notable returning voices include Anna Kendrick, Chris Evans, Kieran Culkin and Brie Larson. The limited series will span eight episodes and original graphic novel author Bryan Lee O’Malley is acting as showrunner. Plus, movie director Edgar Wright is on board as a producer. For Scott Pilgrim fans this is pretty much a dream come true; let’s hope it lives up to the hype.

Premieres Nov. 17 on Netflix . 

Squid Game: The Challenge

While the wait for new Squid Game season 2 details continues, Netflix is offering up Squid Game: The Challenge in the interim. This gameshow spin on the juggernaut South Korean drama, sees contests compete in recreations of the deadly schoolground games from the original series. Of course, eliminated participants won’t be executed here, but don’t think the stakes won’t still be pretty high. 456 players will be competing to win $4.56m, which is the largest single cash prize in reality TV history. While this goofy gameshow probably isn’t going to fully satisfy those desperate for the next installment of the Squid Game universe, it does look pretty darn entertaining. Just be sure to note that episodes of Squid Game: The Challenge will be released weekly rather than the entire season dropping all at once.

Premieres Nov. 22 on Netflix .   

Virgin River Season 5 Part 2 

Virgin River wraps up its fifth season this month and after the revelations in the finale of the Season 5 Part 1 finale, it’s fair to say that longtime viewers are desperate to find out who Mel and Joey’s mom has been receiving love letters from, and if we’ll finally learn the identity of Mel’s biological dad (perhaps the two mystery figures are one and the same?). It’s also been confirmed that Virgin River Season 5 Part 2 will include two holiday-themed episodes, so it’s set to be the perfect watch now that the evenings are getting a little longer and the festive season is almost upon us. Of course, it's been announced that Virgin River will also get at least one more season so don’t expect all the unanswered questions to be resolved in these new episodes. 

Premieres Nov. 30 on Netflix .

One of the reasons that Amazon Prime Video hasn't quite captured the zeitgeist like Netflix, Max, or Hulu is that the best Amazon Prime original series just aren't quite as critically acclaimed or culturally popular. Even though Prime Video trails only Netflix in subscriber count, the original content library doesn't quite excite people the same way.

Prime Video's first show, Transparent, won multiple Emmys, but it has struggled to find its culture-capturing hit like Stranger Things. But with a heavier investment in original programming recently, Prime Video is working to close the gap both in quantity and quality. As more shows release, we're here to keep you up to date on the best Amazon Prime original series. We’ve also rounded up the best Netflix original series and the best Hulu original series if Prime Video doesn’t have the originals you’re looking for.

Hulu has transformed into Huluween for the spookiest season of the year, so it's only appropriate that most of the new additions to the best movies on Hulu are horror films. For Stephen King fans, there's It: Chapter Two, one-half of his most successful adaptation, and the really underrated sequel to The Shining: Doctor Sleep. Also on tap are the Hulu original film, No One Will Save You, and the modern remake of Nightmare Alley.

Do you want to keep up with everything new on Hulu? If so, you've come to the right place. Keep reading for our rundown of the best movies on Hulu right now.

When you need a little space, a movie is a great way to keep the kids entertained, but you want to know they're watching quality entertainment.

Netflix has a massive library of kids' movies, including many original choose-your-own-adventure stories. To help you filter out the duds, we keep tabs on the collection and update this list every month with the best options.

The 70 Best Movies on Netflix Right Now (November 2023)

It's time to go Across the Spider-Verse

Fall is the season when Netflix courts Oscar voters by releasing its best original films, and with movies like David Fincher's The Killer (Nov. 10), Todd Haynes' May December (Dec. 1), and Sam Esmail's Leave the World Behind (Dec. 8) about to blow our minds, it's going to be one of Netflix's best seasons for movies ever. But before that happens, why don't you settle in with a sequel to a bona fide Oscar winner?  Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is now on Netflix. The animated feature is a feast for the senses that's good for the whole family, and one of the best-reviewed films of 2023. 

This is a list of the best movies to watch on Netflix right now . To keep things relevant, we're specifically highlighting the best recent releases, Netflix originals, and some of our own personal favorites.

Last updated Oct. 31; newer additions are at the top.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

For fans of: Spider-versity and Spider-people, sequels that are as good as the original

Director:  Joaquim Dos Santos, Kemp Powers, Justin K. Thompson Stars:  Shameik Moore, Hailee Steinfeld, Jake Johnson Genre:  Animation, Action, Fantasy Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   86

Rarely do sequels match the energy of the original, but in this case, Across the Spider-Verse , the sequel to 2018's Oscar-winning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse , should clear some space for more trophies. Miles Morales ( Shameik Moore ) returns as a more established hero and travels the Spider-Verse with Gwen ( Hailee Steinfeld ), where they, along with a group of various Spider-People from different universes, must stop a new evil. The animation is incredible, the beats are delicious, and the emotional story hits hard. This is as close to a must-watch as there is. - Tim Surette  [ Trailer ]

The Saint of Second Chances

For fans of: Going to baseball games but not to watch baseball, fathers and sons and daughters

Rebecca and Mike Veeck, The Saint of Second Chances

Director:  Jeff Malmberg and Morgan Neville Stars:  Charlie Day, Jeff Daniels (narrator) Genre:  Documentary, Sports, Comedy Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   71

This documentary is less a historical document and more of a series of true tall tales passed down from generation to generation about the Veeck family, notably Bill Veeck, the beloved and fun-loving owner of the Chicago White Sox in the 1970s, and his son Mike, whose up-and-down relationship with his dad — which hit a low after Mike's brainchild, the infamous "Disco Sucks" night, tarnished Bill's reputation — eventually left him clawing his way back up in the world of baseball and reflecting on his relationship with his own family. Mike is charismatic as he talks about his dad and his life, and Malmberg and Neville have fun with the direction, bringing in Charlie Day to play a young Mike Veeck in reenactments. It's a heartwarming story that transcends the world of baseball. - Tim Surette  [ Trailer ]

They Cloned Tyrone

For fans of: Blaxploitation films, sci-fi/comedy

Jamie Foxx, Teyonah Parris, and John Boyega,  They Cloned Tyrone

Director:  Juel Taylor Stars:  Jamie Foxx, Teyonah Parris, John Boyega, David Alan Grier, Kiefer Sutherland Genre:  Comedy, Sci-Fi, Mystery Rating:  R Metacritic score:   76

It would be a shame if  They Cloned Tyrone  got lost in the Netflix shuffle. The sci-fi mystery is director  Juel Taylor 's feature film debut, and boasts a trio of standout lead performances from  John Boyega ,  Teyonah Parris , and  Jamie Foxx , playing three people thrown together by circumstance who, after a shooting in their neighborhood, find themselves wrapped up in an increasingly bizarre government conspiracy. Their search for answers leads them down an eerie path, and to say more would be a disservice to this funny, inventive film. - Allison Picurro  [ Trailer ]

The Deepest Breath

For fans of: Sacrifice, stunning underwater shots,  Fire of Love

Alessia Zecchini, The Deepest Breath

Director:  Laura McGann Stars:  Alessia Zecchini, Stephen Keenan Genre:  Documentary Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   70

The A24-produced documentary about a couple at the top of the freediving world really delves into what drives people to risk everything to be the best. World champion freediver Alessia Zecchini and Irish safety diving instructor Stephen Keenan seemed destined to meet, but their passion for exploring beneath the surface and risk-taking meant danger would always be near what they loved to do. There are some interesting storytelling choices made by director Laura McGann that some say border on manipulation, but the end result is worth it, and no one can deny that the stunning and treacherous underwater footage of the dives will make your heart pound.  -Tim Surette [ Trailer ] 

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

For fans of: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse , cats, cool as heck villains

Antonio Banderas,  Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

Director:  Januel Mercado and Joel Crawford Stars:  Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Florence Pugh, John Mulaney, Wagner Moura Genre:  Animation Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   73

A member of the excellent class of 2023 Oscar nominations for Best Animated Feature, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is a dazzling sequel to the 2011 Puss in Boots film, though it exceeds it in every way. Slightly darker than its predecessor, as its main focus is on death — Puss comes dangerously close to expiring his nine lives — The Last Wish still manages to be very family-friendly with its colorful characters and comedy, thanks to an excellent voice cast that includes new franchise members John Mulaney, Florence Pugh, and Wagner Moura. It was also clearly influenced by Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse , which you'll notice in its animation style. I love this movie.  -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

• What to watch on Amazon, Hulu, HBO Max, and more in August 2023

For fans of: Queer-friendly messages, dazzling animation

Director:  Nick Bruno, Troy Quane Stars:  Chloë Grace Moretz, Riz Ahmed, Beck Bennett, RuPaul, Lorraine Toussaint Genre:  Animation, Action, Sci-fi Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   75

This charming animated movie about not putting labels on people may seem pretty typical, but it relays that message well and is the rare family-friendly film with LGBTQ+ themes. (The film was reportedly delayed multiple times and eventually canceled in 2021 by boneheaded Disney leadership because of its LGBTQ+ storyline , before being revived by Annapurna and Netflix.) Based on the award-winning graphic novel by ND Stevenson, Nimona features  Riz Ahmed as the voice of a disgraced knight whose only chance at redemption is a rambunctious, shapeshifting teenager ( Chloë Grace Moretz ). Set in a world that evokes science-fiction and D&D fantasy, it's a feast for the eyes, but it's your heart that will feel the fullest by the end.  -Tim Surette [ Trailer ] 

King of Clones

For fans of: Ethics, science, cloning, dogs that look alike

Director:  Aditya Thayi Stars:  Woo-suk Hwang Genre:  Documentary Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   n/a

Scientific breakthroughs aren't without their moral dilemmas — sure we COULD have jetpack backpacks, but how do you keep grandma from rocketing into a wall? — and this Netflix film focuses on the moral and ethical questions of cloning. The idea is framed around the story of South Korean scientist Woo-suk Hwang, who rose to fame as a pioneer of xeroxing living things but then became vilified for breaking the rules.  -Tim Surette [ Trailer ] 

Extraction 2

For fans of: Chris Hemsworth, brutal action

Chris Hemsworth, Extraction 2

Director:  Sam Hargrave Stars:  Chris Hemsworth, Golshifteh Farahani, Adam Bessa, Olga Kurylenko Genre:  Action, Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   57

The sequel to one of Netflix's biggest movies ever continues the "story" of a mercenary (Hemsworth) whose skillset includes... extraction. I say "story" because the real reason to watch this (and its prequel) is for the mindless action and violence, which flows so copiously  that you can smell the shrapnel.  -Tim Surette [ Trailer ] 

Longest Third Date

For fans of:  Watching YOLOers make mistakes, COVID flashbacks, dating horror stories, man buns

Matt Robertson and Khani Le,  Longest Third Date

Director:  Brent Hodge Stars:  Khani Le, Matt Robertson Genre:  Documentary Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   n/a

You know those annoying people who film every second of their lives? Matt Robertson is one of those guys, but in a rare case of "I'll allow it," I'll allow it. Matt suggested to an online match that they spend their third date on an adventure and — as young people are wont to do — make the shortsighted decision to fly to Costa Rica together. Even when they were just getting to know each other. The problem? They left in March 2020. After they landed, the world went into lockdown, stranding them together on an island paradise that became an island prison. This is their story.  -Tim Surette [ Trailer ] 

Kill Boksoon

For fans of:  Female assassins, overworked moms

Lee Yeon and Jeon Do-Yeon, Kill Boksoon

Director:  Sung-hyun Byun Stars:  Do-yeon Jeon, Esom, Fahim Fazli, Gyo-hwan Koo, Jeong-min Hwang, Kyung-gu Sol Genre:  Action, Thriller Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   67

This Korean action film features plenty of clichés — a seasoned assassin whose personal life gets in the way of work agrees to one last mission before retirement and decides she can't go through with the killing for moral reasons — but that's OK, since it executes them all pretty well and features a great performance from Do-yeon Jeon as a woman who flips back and forth between heartless killer and doting mother to her teenage daughter. Violent, stylish, and tense, it's worth a watch for fans of Korean dramas and action flicks. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ] 

All Quiet on the Western Front

For fans of:  Classic literature, anti-war war movies

Director:  Edward Berger Stars:  Felix Kammerer, Albrecht Schuch, Daniel Brühl, Sebastian Hülk Genre:  Drama, War Rating:  R Metacritic score:   75

This epic adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque's classic and ever-timely 1929 anti-war novel is one of the best Netflix Original movies of 2022, and the winner of the Best International Film award at the 2023 Academy Awards as well as a nominee for Best Picture. It tells the story of Paul Bäumer (Felix Bammerer), a 17-year-old who enlists in the Germany army and gets a firsthand look at the pointless, dehumanizing slaughter of World War I. It's a devastating film that's especially notable for composer Volker Bertelmann's modern, powerful score. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ] 

Justin Salinger, Samuel Paul Small, Tom Andrews, Lucy Liemann, Ashley Madekwe, and Bukky Bakray, The Strays

Year:  2023 Director:  Nathaniel Martello-White Stars:  Ashley Madekwe, Jordan Myrie, Bukky Bakray Genre:  Drama, Thriller, Horror Rating:  NR Metacritic score:  n/a

This British horror film gets a lot of comparisons to Get Out , and rightfully so, as it not only has a similar sensory aesthetic to Jordan Peele's beloved film, but it's also steeped in race relations. Ashley Madewe stars as a light-skinned black woman living in an upper-crust predominantly white community, when she begins to have visions that others can't see. Fans and critics have been divided on most of the film, but all agree that the ending is a delightful whopper. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

Pamela, a love story

Pamela Anderson, Pamela: A Love Story

Year:  2023 Director:  Ryan White Genre:  Documentary Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   66

Pamela Anderson shares her side of the story in this revealing documentary about her life, in which she discusses the fame, movies, shows, sex tape scandals, and men that have come to define her with the public. It's the perfect chaser to Hulu's raucous  Pam & Tommy , which Anderson wasn't part of and didn't really portray her fairly. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

The Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker

Year:  2023 Director:  Colette Camden Genre:  Documentary, True Crime Rating:  TV-MA Metacritic score:  n/a

This documentary uses the tried-and-true Netflix true crime formula of an irresistibly lurid title that you can't help but click play on. Sometimes you get shameless trash, and sometimes you get surprisingly thoughtful examinations of viral fame, mental illness, and small-scale human tragedy. The Hatchet Wielding Hitchhiker tells the story of Kai Lawrence, a young homeless man who became an internet sensation in 2013 when a news report of his spirited account of using his hatchet to save a woman from an attacker went viral. Not long after, he was convicted of murdering a different man. It's a sad tale that will make you feel for everyone involved. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

The Pale Blue Eye

Christian Bale, The Pale Blue Eye

Year:  2022 Director:  Scott Cooper Stars:  Christian Bale, Harry Melling, Gillian Anderson, Lucy Boynton, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Toby Jones, Robert Duvall Genre:  Mystery, Thriller, Crime, Drama, Historical Rating:  R Metacritic score:   55

Scott Cooper  writes and directs this mystery film based on Louis Bayard's 2003 novel of the same name.  Christian Bale  stars as Det. Augustus Landor, who's investigating a grisly murder at West Point in 1830 with the help of a curious cadet played by  Harry Melling . That cadet's name? Edgar Allan Poe. The extremely stacked cast also includes  Gillian Anderson ,  Charlotte Gainsbourg , and  Robert Duvall . -Liam Mathews   [ Trailer ]

White Noise

For fans of:  Postmodern literature, '80s imagery

Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig, White Noise

Year:  2022 Director:  Noah Baumbach Stars:  Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, Don Cheadle, Raffey Cassidy, Lars Eidinger, Jodie Turner-Smith Genre:  Drama, Comedy Rating:  R Metacritic score:   66

Adam Driver  and  Greta Gerwig  star in director  Noah Baumbach 's adaptation of Don DeLillo's classic postmodern satirical novel. I don't usually do this, but I'm going to defer to Netflix's description for this one, because it's really good: " White Noise  dramatizes a contemporary American family's attempts to deal with the mundane conflicts of everyday life while grappling with the universal mysteries of love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world." That's exactly what it's about!  Reviews  have been more mixed than you might expect for a film with this pedigree, perhaps because DeLillo's stylized dialogue is meant to be read, not spoken aloud, so it sounds really weird, not at all like how people actually speak. But once you get on its unique wavelength, you might find White Noise to be a thought-provoking and darkly funny film. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery   

For fans of: Good old-fashioned murder mysteries, actors having fun with their personas

Kate Hudson, Jessica Henwick, Daniel Craig, and Leslie Odom Jr., Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery

Year:  2022 Director:  Rian Johnson Stars:  Daniel Craig, Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr., Jessica Henwick, Madelyn Cline, Kate Hudson, Dave Bautista Genre:  Mystery, Drama, Thriller, Comedy Rating:  R Metacritic score:   81

The first  Knives Out  was a box office smash, and the sequel got the widest (though still very brief) theatrical release for a Netflix movie ever, but make no mistake, this stylish sequel is a Netflix film.  Daniel Craig  returns as master detective Benoit Blanc, who's tasked with solving a murder mystery at a Greek villa that starts out as a game and turns real. The cast includes  Edward Norton ,  Kate Hudson , and  Dave Bautista . The plotting is brilliant, the performances are delightful, and the social commentary is astute. In his  review  for TV Guide, Jordan Hoffman gave it a 9 out of 10, an exceptionally high score for any movie, let alone a Netflix Original in 2022. -Liam Mathews  [ Trailer ]

Emily the Criminal

For fans of:  Crushing student loan debt, smart indies

Aubrey Plaza, Emily The Criminal

Year:  2022 Director:  John Patton Ford Stars:  Aubrey Plaza, Theo Rossi, Megalyn Echikunwoke, Gina Gershon Genre:  Drama, Crime, Thriller Rating:  R Metacritic score:   75

Aubrey Plaza stars in this crime drama that isn't technically a Netflix original but had such a small indie release that it may as well be. The White Lotus star plays the titular aspiring artist, who has a crushing amount of student debt and a past felony conviction that prevents her from getting a job that makes enough money to pay down what she owes. But then she meets a guy named Youcef ( Theo Rossi ), who runs a credit card fraud ring. It's a tight little thriller with astute social commentary. -Liam Mathews   [ Trailer ]

Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio

For fans of:  New takes on classic stories, that signature del Toro touch

Year:  2022 Director:  Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson Stars:  Ewan McGregor, David Bradley, Gregory Mann, Burn Gorman, John Turturro, Ron Perlman, Finn Wolfhard, Cate Blanchett, Tim Blake Nelson, Christoph Waltz, Tilda Swinton Genre:  Drama, Fantasy, Animation, Family, Musical Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   80

It took  Guillermo del Toro  a decade to bring this passion project, a stop-motion adaptation of the timeless tale of the puppet who wants to be a real boy, to life. GDT's take is steeped in his signature allegorical style of dark fantasy, setting the story in Fascist 1930s Italy and making Pinocchio much less cute than the Disney version of popular imagination. In his review for TV Guide, Jordan Hoffman had particular praise for Pinocchio's character design. "He's lively and charming and lovable, but still looks like real wood," he wrote. "It truly is a work of minor magic." -Liam Mathews  [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Overgrown garden gnomes, blockbuster tropes, Norwegian troll movies

Year: 2022 Director: Roar Uthrag Stars: Ine Marie Wilmann, Kim Falck, Mads Sjøgård Pettersen Genre: Action, Sci-Fi Rating: N/R Metacritic score: n/a

Trolls come in all shapes and sizes, from hair-raised freaky-looking dolls to leprechaun-sized B-movie stars to the mammoth monster of this Norwegian sci-fi action flick. Part Godzilla-esque kaiju movie, part Roland Emmerich disaster film, Troll executes its pea-brained premise — a skyscraper-sized creature made of mountain wreaks havoc on Norway — wonderfully, incorporating American blockbuster tropes gleefully and winking at the audience as it does so. The effects are great and the action is plentiful, and a government aide constantly talking about the movie script he's writing about a monk who can throw his head and hands as weapons is a running joke that keeps things from being too serious. You'll start the movie laughing at it; you'll end it cheering it on. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

For fans of:  Flo,  The Banshees of Inisherin

Florence Pugh, The Wonder

Year:  2022 Director:  Sebastian Lelio Stars:  Florence Pugh, Tom Burke, Kila Lord Cassidy, Niamh Algar, Ciaran Hinds Genre:  Drama, Mystery, Thriller Rating:  R Metacritic score:   72

The Wonder is an eerie period drama film starring woman-of-the-moment Florence Pugh . She plays a nurse sent to an isolated Irish village to investigate a local girl who hasn't eaten in months. It's got those European folk horror vibes that Pugh's familiar with from  Midsommar  (minus the bear suits), plus a unique eye behind the camera by director Sebastian Lelio (just watch the opening scene to see it in action). -Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Is That Black Enough for You?!?

For fans of:  Movies, culture, a smart man saying smart things

Laurence Fishburne, Is That Black Enough for You?

Year: 2022 Director: Elvis Mitchell Genre: Documentary Rating: R Metacritic score: 82

Film critic and academic Elvis Mitchell explores Black cinema in this insightful and incredibly researched documentary that features interviews with Samuel Jackson, Harry Belafonte, Whoopi Goldberg, and other legends. Starting with the early representations of Black people in movies and paying close attention to the blaxploitation era of the 1970s, Is That Black Enough for You?!? is a fascinating and illuminating cultural essay that looks at Black cinema from all angles. The always great Mitchell outdoes himself here in what should be required watching for all cinephiles. - Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

My Father's Dragon

For fans of:  When animated movies are great

Director:  Nora Twomey Stars:  Jacob Tremblay, Gaten Matarazzo, Whoopi Goldberg, Ian McShane, Chris O'Dowd Genre:  Adventure, Drama, Fantasy, Comedy, Animation, Family Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   72

If you don't have a kid, you might consider picking one up to watch  My Father's Dragon , the latest animated film from Irish studio Cartoon Saloon. Cartoon Saloon gave us the outstanding  Wolfwalkers , as well as  Song of the Sea  and  The Secret of Kells , all of which were nominated for Oscars and all of which are fantastic. My Father's Dragon is an adaptation of the classic children's novel of the same name, and features the voices of Jacob Tremblay , Gaten Matarazzo , and Whoopi Goldberg . We miss the Irish accents Cartoon Saloon movies usually have, but it's still really good. -Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

Enola Holmes 2

For fans of:  Millie, Bobby, Brown

Henry Cavill, Millie Bobby Brown, Louis Partridge, Enola Holmes 2

Director:  Harry Bradbeer  Stars:  Millie Bobby Brown, Henry Cavill, Helena Bonham Carter, Louis Partridge, David Thewlis Genre:  Action, Adventure, Comedy, Mystery Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   62

Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown 's other franchise is this energetic mystery movie series in which she plays Sherlock Holmes' little sister (Sherlock is played by Henry Cavill , himself no stranger to franchises, both on Netflix and off). The sequel is a ton of fun as Brown, "a natural born comic with a hydrogen bomb's worth of screen charisma, turns what could be just another disposable tween-and-teens romp into a genuine delight," Jordan Hoffman wrote in his review for TV Guide. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

The Good Nurse

For fans of:  Great casts, tense medical dramas, true crime

Eddie Redmayne and Jessica Chastain, The Good Nurse

Director:  Tobias Lindholm Stars:  Jessica Chastain, Eddie Redmayne, Nnamdi Asomugha, Noah Emmerich, Kim Dickens Genre:  Drama, Thriller, Crime Rating:  R Metacritic score:   64

Oscar-winners  Jessica Chastain  and  Eddie Redmayne  star in this drama about the chilling case of Charles Cullen, a nurse who is confirmed to have killed 29 people and is suspected to have possibly killed hundreds more during a period of time in which he kept getting jobs at hospitals in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Redmayne plays Cullen, while Chastain plays Amy Loughren, a nurse who played a pivotal role in catching Cullen. In his review for TV Guide, Jordan Hoffman called it "tense" and "engrossing," with a better performance from Redmayne than the one that won him an Oscar. -Liam Mathews   [ Trailer ]

The Stranger

For fans of:  Good Netflix thrillers, saying "Joel Edgerton is so underrated"

Joel Edgerton, The Stranger

Director:  Thomas M. Wright Stars:  Joel Edgerton, Sean Harris Genre:  Drama, Thriller Rating:  TV-MA Metacritic score:   74

Joel Edgerton stars in this tense Australian crime drama as an undercover cop who befriends a murder suspect (the Mission: Impossible movies' Sean Harris ) in order to get close enough to get information, but he gets in really, really deep, and if he gets any deeper, he'll lose himself entirely. It doesn't break any new ground, but the performances are great. Not to be confused with the Harlan Coben limited series The Stranger , which is also on Netflix. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

The Munsters

For fans of: When extreme horror directors make family movies

Daniel Roebuck, Jeff Daniel Phillips, and Sheri Moon Zombie, The Munsters

Director:  Rob Zombie Stars:  Jeff Daniel Phillips, Sheri Moon Zombie, Daniel Roebuck, Sylvester McCoy, Richard Brake Genre:  Comedy, Family Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   57

Writer-director Rob Zombie ( House of 1000 Corpses , Halloween 2007) goes gentle with this earnest, PG-rated remake of The Munsters , the '60s sitcom about a family of monsters living an affectionately satirical Leave It to Beaver -style suburban life. The movie is an origin story for how Herman ( Jeff Daniel Phillips ) and Lily Munster ( Sheri Moon Zombie ) met and fell in love. The series clearly had a big influence on Zombie, who has spent his musical and theatrical career doing slightly ironic riffs on classic horror images and intellectual property. It's the first thing he's ever made that's safe for the whole family, unless you take your family with you when you dig through the ditches and burn though the witches and slam in the back of your Dragula . -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

For fans of:  Strangers on a Train , Gen Z icons Camila Mendes and Maya Hawke

Maya Hawke and Camila Mendes, Do Revenge

Director:  Jennifer Kaytin Robinson Stars:  Camila Mendes, Maya Hawke, Austin Abrams, Rish Shah, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Sophie Turner Genre:  Comedy, Drama Rating:  TV-MA Metacritic score:   66

This stylish teen revenge comedy is inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's classic Strangers on a Train , where two strangers swap targets in order to eliminate the motive and avoid being caught. In this version, high school seniors Drea ( Riverdale 's Camila Mendes ) and Eleanor ( Stranger Things '  Maya Hawke ) team up to punish each other's bullies. "What it has going for it most is Maya Hawke, a very gifted performer who carries herself through the comedy quite well," Jordan Hoffman writes in his review of the film. "Hawke makes funny faces when you least expect them, and it's fun to watch." -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

Sheng Wang: Sweet & Juicy

For fans of:  Laughing a lot

Sheng Wang, Sheng Wang: Sweet & Juicy

Director:  Ali Wong Stars:  Sheng Wang Genre:  Stand-up Special Rating:  n/a Metacritic score:  n/a

Comedian Sheng Wang has delivered one of Netflix's all-time great comedy specials, dissecting office printers, Costco pants, and snoring in his unique Texas drawl. Wang, based out of the Bay Area, keeps things irreverent but relatable with observational comedy about getting older and not giving a crap about it. It's funny from the moment he steps on stage until the second he leaves it.  -Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Inside the Mind of a Cat

For fans of: Saying "my cat is very empathetic"

Year: 2022 Director: Andy Mitchell Genre: Documentary, Family Rating: TV-PG Metacritic score: n/a

People like to say that cats are a mystery, but the truth is there just hasn't been a lot of research into why our feline friends are the way they are. That's starting to change. This family-friendly documentary explains the science of cats in a cute and fun way. For example, it's scientifically proven that cats know their own names, but don't always choose to respond. If you love cats, this film will help you understand them better, and if you love a cat-lover, it will help you understand them better. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

The Sea Beast

For fans of: Moana , nautical adventures arrr matey

Year:  2022 Director:  Chris Williams Stars:  Karl Urban, Zaris-Angel Hator, Jared Harris, and Marianne Jean-Baptiste Genre:  Family, Adventure, Fantasy, Comedy Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   74

Most Netflix original kids movies are just re-dubs of second-tier CGI films from foreign studios, but  The Sea Beast , from Moana and Big Hero 6 director Chris Williams, looks like a legitimate contender for best family film of the year. A young girl stows away on her idol's ship to help him hunt gigantic sea creatures, leading to seafaring adventure and action. It's getting  great reviews , and features three TV Guide favorites as voice actors:  The Boys '  Karl Urban ,  Legion 's  Dan Stevens , and  Chernobyl 's  Jared Harris . - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Girl in the Picture

For fans of: The most messed up true crime you've ever seen in your life

The Girl in the Picture

Year:  2022 Director:  Skye Borgman Genre:  True Crime, Documentary Rating:  TV-MA Metacritic score:   n/a

This haunting true crime documentary tells the story of a young woman named Sharon Marshall, who was abused by her stepfather Franklin Floyd in unspeakable ways. Marshall was found dying by the side of a road in 1990, which led to an investigation that uncovered Floyd's crimes. The documentary is structured around the unbelievable twists in the things Floyd did, but unlike most true crime documentaries like this, it always cares more about the victims than the perpetrator, which keeps it from getting too lurid. -Liam Mathews [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Dystopian thrillers, when Chris Hemsworth plays himbos

Chris Hemsworth, Spiderhead

Year:  2022 Director:  Joseph Kosinski Stars:  Miles Teller, Jurnee Smollett, Chris Hemsworth Genre:  Action, Sci-Fi, Drama, Thriller Rating:  R Metacritic score:   55

This expensive movie has unusually literary background for a Netflix dystopian sci-fi thriller. It's based on a short story by MacArthur Fellowship recipient George Saunders originally published in  The New Yorker . While that seems like source material that would have to be dumbed down a lot to get made into a Netflix movie — and some of the despairing story's darkness has definitely been filtered out —  Deadpool  screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick and  Top Gun: Maverick  director Joseph Kosinski actually kept it pretty smart. It's unusually thoughtful for a Netflix blockbuster. It stars  Chris Hemsworth  as the warden of an experimental prison where mysterious pharmaceuticals are tested out on the prisoners, who include Jeff ( Miles Teller ) and Rachel ( Jurnee Smollett ). Jeff and Rachel form a special bond, which leads to them getting subjected to some mind-bending, darkly funny psychological thrills.  -Liam Mathews   [ Trailer   |   Review ]

For fans of:  Adam Sandler: Serious Actor 

Adam Sandler, Hustle

Year:  2022 Director: Jeremiah Zagar Stars:  Adam Sandler, Juancho Hernangomez, Queen Latifah, Robert Duvall Genre:  Drama, Comedy, Sports Rating:  R Metacritic score:   67

In  Uncut Gems , which sadly expired from Netflix in May, the game of basketball is essentially second billed, right behind  Adam Sandler  himself. Sandler is famously a  huge basketball fan in general , so it was only a matter of time before he made a movie about it. Another reminder to the world that Sandler is a solid dramatic actor,  Hustle  is a sports drama that stars Sandler as a washed-up scout who makes it his mission to recruit a talented street ball player from Spain (Utah Jazz forward Juancho Hernangomez) into the NBA. -Allison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

For fans of:  Bromance, epics, insane action

Year:  2022 Director:  S.S. Rajamouli Stars:  N.T. Rama Rao Jr., Ram Charan Genre:  Action, Epic Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   87

As Americans, we're pretty much just "Marvel movie, drrr drrr, Star Wars, drrr drrr," but now's your chance to expand your range to some quality action from international cinema. S.S. Rajamouli's insane epic RRR is a global phenomenon, a dazzling period adventure about two real figures from India's history who meet, form a friendship, and fight the British Raj together, and find a missing girl. With over-the-top, physics-defying action sequences, you won't care that it runs over three hours long. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Apollo 10 1/2: A Space Age Childhood  

For fans of: The good old days, childhood memories, Waking Life

Apollo 10 1/2: A Space Age Childhood

Year:  2022 Director:  Richard Linklater Stars:  Jack Black, Zachary Levi, Glen Powell Genre:  Animation, Drama, Comedy Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   81

Richard Linklater returns to his animation style of choice — rotoscoping, in which film is drawn over frame-by-frame for realistic movement with a dream-like feel — that he used in Waking Life and A Scanner Darkly . This time, it's used to tell a story about his very real childhood growing up in Houston in the late 1960s and a very unreal story about a 10-year-old boy who goes to the moon in a secret NASA program. It's a wistful, energetic tale of childhood innocence during a period of immense change, and Linklater nails the vibe of youthful exuberance and coming-of-age. Plus, it has a fantastic soundtrack. Watch this with your parents, they'll love it. (You will, too.)  -Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

The Tinder Swindler

For fans of:  Dating app nightmares, con jobs

Year: 2022 Director:  Felicity Morris Genre: Documentary Rating:  TV-MA Metacritic score:   n/a

This frightening documentary about a con man who used Tinder to — you guessed it — swindle unsuspecting ladies into handing over their credit cards and taking out loans to funnel him cash will make you want to hunt down this scumbag yourself. By putting up a front of extravagance, paid for by his current mark, this man would woo women he met on the dating app and set them up to be his next source of cash before disappearing into the internet and tropical locales where he partied his ass off on their dime. It's not a particularly well-made documentary, but the story is riveting and the victims are rightfully treated with compassion. - Tim Surette [ Trailer ]

The Lost Daughter

For fans of:  Olivia Colman, bad vacations, "Livin' on a Prayer"

Dakota Johnson and Olivia Colman, The Lost Daughter

Year:  2021 Director:  Maggie Gyllenhaal Stars:  Olivia Colman, Dakota Johnson Genre:  Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   86

Maggie Gyllenhaal 's directorial debut is dark, psychological goodness. In this adaptation of the Elena Ferrante novel, Olivia Colman stars as Leda, a college professor on a solo trip to Greece, where she meets and becomes obsessed with Nina ( Dakota Johnson ), a young, overwhelmed mother. It all quickly turns into the vacation from hell as Nina forces Leda to confront memories of her own experience as a young mother. Jessie Buckley plays the younger version of Leda in flashbacks, while Peter Sarsgaard , Ed Harris , Dagmara Dominczyk , and Paul Mescal fill out the rest of the cast.  -Allison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

The Hand of God

For fans of: Coming-of-age dramas, world-class directors in their prime

Filippo Scotti and Marlon Joubert, The Hand of God

Year:  2021 Director:  Paolo Sorrentino Stars:  Betty Pedrazzi, Biagio Manna, Ciro Capano Genre:  Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   76

Italian movie magician Paolo Sorrentino ( The Young Pope ) is in peak form with his highly personal coming-of-age drama The Hand of God , which will almost certainly be nominated in the International Feature Film category at next year's Oscars. Set in the 1980s in Naples, Italy, The Hand of God follows a teen through the ups and downs of life, and ties it together with soccer star Diego Maradona's infamous "hand of god" play. Though some critics note its messiness, no one can deny that it's absolutely gorgeous. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

The Power of the Dog

For fans of: Tension, Benedict Cumberbatch being a big ol' meanie

Kodi Smit-McPhee and Benedict Cumberbatch, The Power of the Dog

Year:  2021 Director:  Jane Campion Stars:  Benedict Cumberbatch, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons Genre:  Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   89

Jane Campion's first film since 2009 heads out on the range with one mean cowboy in Benedict Cumberbatch . The 1925-set Western quickly reaches a boil and holds it as a rancher ( Jesse Plemons ) gets a new wife ( Kirsten Dunst ) whom his brother (Cumberbatch) takes a strong disliking to. It's a masterclass of simmering tension and spellbinding acting, but if you're here for shoot 'em ups, this Western ain't it. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Healing, the power of art

Year:  2021 Director:  Robert Greene Stars:  Dan Laurine, Ed Gavagan, Joe Eldred, Michael Sandridge, Mike Foreman, Tom Viviano Genre:  Documentary Rating:  R Metacritic score:   90

Robert Greene's gutting documentary comes to Netflix just two months after making its debut at Telluride, a quick turnaround that belies how much time went into this movie. Shot over three years, Procession  focuses on six men who each suffered abuse by Catholic priests in the diocese of Kansas City, Missouri, when they were boys. Greene's project is unique: The men, working with both Greene and a therapist who uses theater in her work, create short films about their trauma. It's an unmissable story of how to reckon with evil. - Kelly Connolly   [ Trailer ]

tick, tick... BOOM!

For fans of: Lin-Manuel Miranda, Broadway

Andrew Garfield, tick tick...Boom!

Year:  2021 Director:  Lin-Manuel Miranda Stars:  Andrew Garfield, Vanessa Hudgens, Bradley Whitford Genre:  Drama, Musical Rating:  R Metacritic score:   74

Lin-Manuel Miranda has a type: musicals about guys who are worried their time is running out. And why mess with success? Miranda makes his directorial debut with this film adaptation, already racking up good reviews, of Rent creator Jonathan Larson's semi-autobiographical musical. Andrew Garfield stars as the struggling playwright, who's anxious that he hasn't accomplished enough by his upcoming 30th birthday. (The story is made more poignant by Larson's real-life early death at the age of 35, the night before Rent 's off-Broadway premiere.) Garfield is a hit in this, Vanessa Hudgens is in her element, and Bradley Whitford does a rock-solid Sondheim impersonation. - Kelly Connolly   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Stars wisecrackin', dumb action, dumber twists

Ryan Reynolds, Gal Gadot, Dwayne Johnson, Red Notice

Year:  2021 Director:  Lin-Manuel Miranda Stars:  Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot, Ryan Reynolds Genre:  Adventure, Action, Comedy Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   37

I watched this entire movie in one sitting and I had a great time, but in no reality would I say this is a good movie. It's one of those, y'know? It's a film in which the stars are secured and then you write the script. Those stars happen to be Dwayne Johnson , Gal Gadot , and Ryan Reynolds , some of the biggest celebrities on the planet, and the script sees them playing various combinations of FBI agents and art thieves, sometimes both! Add in a budget of about $200 million, and you've got yourself one of Netflix's most popular original movies ever. This is streaming candy; they can't all be Roma .  -Allison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Where the line of racial equality blurs, gorgeous black and white photos come to life

Ruth Negga and Tessa Thompson, Passing

Year:  2021 Director:  Rebecca Hall Stars:  Tessa Thompson, Ruth Negga, Andre Holland Genre:  Drama Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   85

Would you give up your culture if it meant you could have an easier life? That's the question posed in this stirring film set in 1920s New York City that stars Tessa Thompson as a Black woman who runs into a childhood friend (Ruth Negga) who has been passing for a white woman, bringing up questions of racial identity and whitewashing. Shot entirely in black and white, the film features wonderful performances from Thompson, Negga, and André Holland.  -Allison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Heartfelt stories, discovering your roots and culture

Lily, Chloe, and Sadie, Found

Year:  2021 Director:  Amanda Lipitz Genre:  Documentary Rating:  PG Metacritic score:   82

This documentary about three adopted Chinese high schoolers looking into their roots could also pass as a robot test, because if you aren't moved to tears at some point, then you're made out of tin. What makes it so effective is that it looks at adoption from every angle: the girls looking for answers and discovering their culture, their adoptive families looking to help them find their roots, the Chinese families who were forced to give up their babies under China's one child policy, and the intrepid investigator who helps adopted children find their birth parents in China. It's an emotional wallop. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

The Harder They Fall

For fans of: Quentin Tarantino films, Red Dead Redemption , lots of shootin'

Regina King, Idris Elba, and LaKeith Stanfield, The Harder They Fall

Year:  2021 Director:  Jeymes Samuel Stars:  Idris Elba, LaKeith Stanfield, Regina King, Jonathan Majors Genre:  Drama, Western Rating:  R Metacritic score:   68

This Netflix blockbuster is an action Western with a lot more style than you're used to. Director Jeymes Samuel takes a tried-and-true cowboy premise — a gang gets together to exact revenge on the persons responsible for the deaths of loved ones — and infuses it with gorgeous violence, snappy dialogue, and a predominantly Black cast that includes  Regina King ,  Idris Elba ,  LaKeith Stanfield ,  Jonathan Majors ,  Delroy Lindo , and  Zazie Beetz . The result is a rollicking good time and one of the gosh dang coolest films you'll see.  -Allison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Couples therapy, violence, Noomi Rapace 

Aksel Hennie and Noomi Rapace, The Trip

Year:  2021 Director:  Tommy Wirkola Stars:  Aksel Hennie, Noomi Rapace Genre:  Thriller, Comedy Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   n/a

This Norwegian dark comedy follows a couple (Aksel Hennie and Noomi Rapace ) who go to a remote cabin in an attempt to repair their dissolving relationship. Little do they know that they each plan to murder each other as their solution to their problems. Even littler do they know that others are out there in the wilderness to give them even more troubles. Spectacularly violent with humor as black as the night, The Trip is a trip. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: One-man plays, Jake Gyllenhaal, thrilling phone conversations

Jake Gyllenhaal, The Guilty

Year:  2021 Director:  Antoine Fuqua Stars:  Jake Gyllenhaal Genre:  Drama, Thriller Rating:  R Metacritic score:   63

Jake Gyllenhaal plays a cop sent to desk duty at a 9-1-1 call center and becomes embroiled in a case when a woman being held against her will calls to ask for help. An adaptation of a 2018 Danish film, The Guilty is the rare intense thriller without any action as it's mostly set in the call center with Jake on the phone and only voices coming from the other end. But director Antoine Fuqua and Gyllenhaal keep things mesmerizing. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer  | Review ]

The Father Who Moves Mountains

For fans of: Cinematography, the battle between sanity and madness, fast snow & slow burns

Year:  2021 Director:  Daniel Sandu Stars:  Adrian Titieni, Bogdan Nechifor Genre:  Drama, Thriller Rating:  TV-MA Metacritic score:   n/a

This Romanian film follows a powerful man of means desperate to find his son after he goes missing on a mountain trek. It's not an action film, but rather a contemplative exploration of how far a man will go to save his son and at what cost to others. You'll understand why he does what he does, but you might not like him for it.  -Allison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

The Old Ways

For fans of: Witchcraft, Latin American demonology, creepy crawlies

Year:  2020 Director:  Christopher Alender Stars:  Brigitte Kali, Andrea Cortés Genre:  Horror Rating:  R Metacritic score:   67

A young journalist goes deep into the jungles of Veracruz, Mexico, for a story on indigenous people who practice ancient witchcraft, only to be kidnapped by them when they believe she is possessed by a demon. It's full of terrifying imagery, as is expected, but it's the claustrophobia of being imprisoned that really drives the horror. On top of that, there are themes of cultural identity that take it to a smarter level than your typical horror film, and visually, it's aces. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Blood Red Sky

For fans of:  Monstrous surprises, small-space horror

Peri Baumeister and Carl Koch, Blood Red Sky

Year:  2021 Director:  Peter Thorwarth Stars:  Carl Anton Koch, Peri Baumeister Genre:  Horror Rating:  R Metacritic score:   43

This German-English language action-forward horror film is set on a Transatlantic flight between Berlin and New York City that is besieged by hijackers. But they don't know that one of the passengers on board possesses supernatural powers, and will do anything to protect her young son, which sometimes means eating the bad guys. It's a taut thriller with a paranormal twist that's one of Netflix's better original horror films. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Bo Burnham: Inside

For fans of:  Existentialism, music

Year:  2021 Director:  Bo Burnham Stars:  Bo Burnham Genre:  Comedy, Musical Rating:  TV-MA Metacritic score:   98

Indie auteur  and  certified bad movie boyfriend   Bo Burnham  surprised his fans when he announced he had orchestrated a return to his comedic roots during the pandemic. With  Inside , which Burnham wrote, directed, and edited without a crew or an audience while stuck at home, he lets out his feelings through music, delivering a setlist of very catchy, very meme-worthy songs that have titles like "White Woman's Instagram" and "FaceTime with My Mom (Tonight)." The special gets in touch with the collective mood 2020 inspired in all of us -- the anguish, the despair, the horniness. Burnham's comedy has always touched on the existential, but he goes deeper than ever here. -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Realizing that the horrors of the past are still effecting the present

Year:  2021 Director:  Kristine Solakis Genre:  Documentary Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   76

Ryan Murphy and Jason Blum executive produce this documentary about Exodus International, an Evangelical group formed in the '70s that claims it could turn gay people straight through prayer and conversion therapy. What's most interesting about this film is that it features interviews with ex-leaders who are now speaking out against the movement they were part of for so many years.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

For fans of: Eric Andre, the Sacha Baron Cohen effect

Eric Andre and Lil Rey Howery, Bad Trip

Year:  2021 Director:  Kitao Sakurai Stars:  Eric André, Lil Rel Howery Genre:  Comedy Rating:  R Metacritic score:   61

How in the world is  Bad Trip  as great as it is? There is no plausible reason why a prank movie was able to feel so fresh and hilarious in the year 2021, and yet here I am, writing about the greatness of  Bad Trip . It has a pretty loose plot (two listless best friends take a road trip so one can reunite with his high school crush), which is sort of unnecessary to the film's broad comedy, but does help with providing structure and emotional beats when needed. Anyway, that's not really why it's on this list.  Bad Trip  shines thanks to its many interactions with the unsuspecting public, who have no idea they're being filmed or that they're part of a movie. The way the film's stars, Eric Andre , Lil Rel Howery , and Tiffany Haddish , drag poor strangers into the bizarre world they've created and get them invested in their characters' fictional problems (a particularly memorable scene in which Haddish recruits the patrons of a restaurant into helping her track down Andre and Howery becomes an instant classic thanks to the passionate reaction from one woman), ends up producing the best comedic moments. Clocking in under 90 minutes,  Bad Trip  is a quick, wholeheartedly joyful watch.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

The Forty-Year-Old Version

For fans of:  The struggles of hitting the big 4-0, the artist's life

Year:  2020 Director:  Kitao Sakurai Stars:  Radha Blank Genre:  Comedy Rating:  R Metacritic score:   80

Soon-to-be household name Radha Blank writes, directs, and stars in this poignant comedy about a playwright who is approaching her 40th birthday but still has nothing to show for it, even after winning a coveted "30 under 30" award nearly a decade before. To reinvent her life, she breaks into rapping, spitting rhymes from her unique viewpoint and fighting to stay true to her own artistic vision. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

For fans of:  The Coen brothers, dark comedy

Tim Blake Nelson, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs

Year:  2018 Director:  Ethan Coen, Joel Coen Stars:  Tim Blake Nelson, Tom Waits, James Franco Genre:  Drama, Comedy Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   79

The Coen brothers strap on their spurs for this collection of short stories from the Wild West, all peppered with that trademark Coen absurdism made famous in their films Fargo and Raising Arizona . The stories range from a singing cowboy ( Tim Blake Nelson ) who's quick on the draw to a mumbling prospector ( Tom Waits ) tracked down by an opportunist to an outlaw ( James Franco ) who's no stranger to the gallows. It's a gorgeous film about opportunity in a land where there's nothing but opportunity.  -Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Da 5 Bloods

For fans of:  Spike Lee, being reminded that war is bad

Year:  2020 Director:  Spike Lee Stars:  Delroy Lindo, Clarke Peters, Isiah Whitlock, Jr., Chadwick Boseman, Norm Lewis Genre:  Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   82

Spike Lee 's latest is a sprawling drama split between two timelines: the first during the Vietnam War, where a group of Black soldiers band together, and the second during the present, where the surviving members, now aging veterans, return to the country in the hopes of recovering the remains of their fallen squad leader ( Chadwick Boseman , in one of his last performances) and locating the gold they buried years ago. It's a dazzling, stylized adventure, and the kind of movie that will make you walk away feeling like you learned something without skimping on character development.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

My Octopus Teacher

For fans of:  Unlikely friendships, cephalopods

Year:  2020 Director:  James Reed and Pippa Ehrlich Stars:  Craig Foster, Tom Foster Genre:  Documentary Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   82

This film about the intimate relationship between a man and his octopus won the Oscar for Best Documentary in 2021. Craig Foster, a diver, buddies up with an octopus in South Africa for a year, documenting her life as she sleeps, eats, and battles sharks. The whole experience teaches Foster about life and moves him to gain appreciation for humanity's relationship with nature, as well as form a closer bond with his son. The whole thing feels a little like a more wholesome version of Guillermo del Toro's  The   Shape of Water , but I'm not here to knock anyone who dares to explore interspecies friendships.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

The Trial of the Chicago 7

For fans of:  Aaron Sorkin's whole thing, watered down history

Year:  2020 Director:  Aaron Sorkin Stars:  Sacha Baron Cohen, Eddie Redmayne, Jeremy Strong, John Carroll Lynch Genre:  Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   76

In 1969, a group of anti-war activists were charged with conspiring to start a riot at the Democratic National Convention, and in 2019,  Aaron Sorkin  told an extremely Hollywood version of their story. Although Sorkin really simplifies a lot of the more radical politics people like Abbie Hoffman ( Sacha Baron Cohen ) and Jerry Rubin ( Jeremy Strong ) actually had, a big, showy courtroom drama -- full of grandstanding and dramatic speeches and quippy dialogue -- is a perfect vehicle for his style. It's grounded by the performances of its sprawling, star-studded cast (which also includes  Mark Rylance ,  Frank Langella , and  Michael Keaton ) and the writing, which earned Sorkin a Best Original Screenplay nod at the Oscars, and it'll teach you something about the injustices of the American justice system, which, spoiler, has always been pretty bad!  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

For fans of:  Haunted houses, immigrant horror stories

Wunmi Mosaku and Sope Dìrísù, His House

Year:  2020 Director:  Remi Weekes Stars:  Wunmi Mosaku, Sope Dirisu Genre:  Horror Rating:  TV-14 Metacritic score:   72

A refugee couple from South Sudan find their new housing in England is not what it seems in this chilling and stylish horror movie from writer-director  Remi Weekes . If you love ghosts and grief but are ready for a little more intensity,  His House  is a must-watch; it's a haunted house story that blends serious scares with thoughtful commentary on immigration and trauma. Plus, it's anchored by unmissable performances from stars  Wunmi Mosaku  and  Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù . - Kelly Connolly   [ Trailer ]

I Am Not Your Negro

For fans of:  Social justice, visual poetry, hard truths

Year:  2016 Director:  Raoul Peck Genre:  Documentary Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   95

Raoul Peck's 2016 documentary that's an adaptation of James Baldwin's manuscript about racism in America through the eyes of Black people -- specifically civil rights activists Martin Luther King Jr. Malcolm X, and Medgar Evans -- is a visual masterpiece with a clear message: America has failed the Black community. The powerful 2016 film brims with energy through old footage of segregation and current shots of protests in the streets in the wake of police violence against minorities. It's an essential watch to better understand America's shameful past and present. - Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

For fans of:  Oscar winners, art films

Year:  2018 Director:  Alfonso Cuarón Stars:  Yalitza Aparicio, Marina de Tavira, Fernando Grediaga Genre:  Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   96

Sorry Mank , you aren't the best black-and-white film on Netflix. Not even close. Alfonso Cuaron 's 2018 personal tale of a housekeeper in Mexico to a wealthy Mexican family won Best Foreign Film, Best Director (Cuaron), and Best Cinematography (Cuaron) at the 91st Academy Awards, but could have won tons more. It's both quiet and epic in scope, balancing a fascinating relationship between a hard-working woman named Cleo and the family that relies on her, unforgettable shots involving hundreds of extras, and a sensitive story on life bubbling under the surface. – Tim Surette   [ Trailer ]

Homecoming: A Film By Beyoncé

For fans of: Beyoncé, of course… and who isn't?

Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé

Year:  2019 Director:  Beyoncé, Ed Burke Stars:  Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Kelly Rowland Genre:  Documentary, Music Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   93

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Homecoming is perhaps the best, most impactful concert film of at least the past few years. This is Beyoncé at the absolute top of her game, showing not only her historic performance at Coachella 2018, but the emotionally and physically taxing preparation that led up to it. It's just a pleasure to watch, not only because Beyoncé's unparalleled work ethic and commitment to precision, but because of how dedicated she and her team of artists, dancers, and musicians were to making sure the performance was a celebration of Black culture. It's called Homecoming because of the way it evokes traditions made popular by homecoming concerts at Historically Black Colleges and Universities and it's maybe the most entertaining history lesson you'll ever get. Also, there's a pitch-perfect Destiny's Child reunion. We love to see it.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

The  To All the Boys I've Loved Before trilogy

For fans of: Teen rom-coms, John Hughes references

Noah Centineo and Lana Condor, To All the Boys: Always and Forever

Year:  2018-2021 Director:  Susan Johnson Stars:  Lana Condor, Noah Centineo, Janel Parrish, Anna Cathcart Genre:  Comedy, Drama, Romance Rating:  TV-14 Metacritic score:   64

Based on Jenny Han's young adult trilogy,  To All the Boys I've Loved Before took the Netflix world by storm when it debuted in 2018. The teen rom-com stars Asian American actress  Lana Condor  as Lara Jean Covey, a hopelessly romantic high schooler who pens letters to all her crushes in order to get her abundance of emotions out. But when those love letters are mailed out to the crushes by her younger sister, she's mortified -- especially because one is delivered to her older sister's boyfriend, Josh ( Israel Broussard ). To cover up her feelings for Josh, Lara Jean begins fake dating the popular and charming Peter ( Noah Centineo ) -- another love letter recipient who wants to make his ex jealous -- but old feelings die hard.  To All the Boys I've Loved Before  has an inherent sweetness to it that calls back to classic '80s films like  Say Anything...  or  Sixteen Candles . Once you've finished it, check out its sequels,  P.S. I Still Love You , which introduces yet another recipient of Lara Jean's letters, and Always and Forever , the third and final film in the saga. - Kaitlin Thomas [ Trailer ]

Always Be My Maybe

For fans of: Keanu Reeves doing the most

Randall Park and Ali Wong, Always Be My Maybe

Year:  2019 Director:  Nahnatchka Khan Stars:  Ali Wong, Randall Park, Keanu Reeves Genre:  Comedy, Romance Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   64

Ali Wong  co-wrote this 2019 romantic comedy in which she stars as Sasha, a celebrity chef who returns home to San Francisco to open a new restaurant and runs into her former childhood friend, Marcus (co-writer  Randall Park ). The romantic chemistry from their teenage years still remains, and after she breaks off her engagement to her fiancé after he delays their wedding yet again, Sasha attempts to embark on a new relationship with Marcus. However, his fears and her fame -- and a great guest spot from  Keanu Reeves  -- create obstacles that first have to be overcome before true happiness can be found. - Kaitlin Thomas   [ Trailer ]

Before he got recruited by the Marvel machine, Taika Waititi made Hunt for the Wilderpeople , an adventure dramedy about a young delinquent ( Julian Dennison ) and his reluctant foster dad ( Sam Neill ) who, after a series of mishaps and misunderstandings, become the targets of a manhunt. They go into survival mode as they hide out in the New Zealand wilderness, running into a cast of oddball characters as they evade the police. As is the case with these things, the longer they stay out on their own, the closer they get. Waititi's signature comedic style is what makes the whole thing really shine.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

The Irishman

For fans of: Impressive de-aging CGI, looooong movies

Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Ray Romano, The Irishman

Year:  2019 Director:  Martin Scorsese Stars:  Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci Genre:  Drama Rating:  R Metacritic score:   94

Martin Scorsese loves telling stories about almost-great men undone by their own hubris, and The Irishman is the latest example of that. A lot was made of its three-hour runtime, and its use of CGI to de-age its stars, Robert De Niro , Joe Pesci , and Al Pacino , but those aren't the only things this film has to offer. De Niro plays Frank Sheeran, the titular Irishman, who works as a hitman alongside Russell Bufalino (Pesci) and famous Teamster Jimmy Hoffa (Pacino), both of whom are tied to organized crime. It's an epic about power and betrayal, and contains easily the best performance De Niro's given in years.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

Marriage Story

For fans of: Laura Dern memes, Adam Driver memes, being sad

Laura Dern and Scarlett Johansson, Marriage Story

Year:  2019 Director:  Noah Baumbach Stars:  Adam Driver, Scarlett Johansson, Laura Dern, Ray Liotta Genre:  Drama Rating:  NR Metacritic score:   94

A marriage unravels in Noah Baumbach's latest, as Charlie ( Adam Driver ) and Nicole ( Scarlett Johansson ) try to keep themselves afloat during their divorce. Yes, there's definitely a lot movie going on in this movie emotionally, but isn't the most important takeaway that we got two great memes out of it? I think so.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

Dolemite Is My Name

For fans of: Underdog stories, Eddie Murphy doing something different

Eddie Murphy, Dolemite Is My Name

Year:  2019 Director:  Craig Brewer Stars:  Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Da'Vine Joy Randolph, Keegan-Michael Key Genre:  Drama, Comedy, Biography Rating:  R Metacritic score:   76

In 1970s Los Angeles, struggling musician-comedian Rudy Ray Moore ( Eddie Murphy ) decides to create a raunchy alter ego named Dolemite in effort to get noticed. The movie highlights the way, through his work, Moore was able to help pioneer rap as a musical genre, provides wider commentary on the blaxploitation phenomenon, and touches on some of Murphy's own feelings about the critics who have commented on his films. Spoiler: He doesn't care!  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

Dick Johnson Is Dead

For fans of: Crying!

Year:  2020 Director:  Kirsten Johnson Stars:  Dick Johnson, Kirsten Johnson Genre:  Documentary Rating:  PG-13 Metacritic score:   89

You should break out a box of tissues before checking out Kristen Johnson 's tender documentary about her father. When we're introduced to the 86-year-old Dick, the frightening, heartbreaking effects of his dementia are starting to show, marking what both Dick and Kristen accept to be the beginning of the end of his life. What makes this film unique is the way it blends fiction and reality: Kristen imagines ways for her dad to die that he gamely acts out, from falling down a flight of stairs to bleeding out from a head wound. The two have such an easy rapport that it's easy to laugh at their antics one minute and be horribly upset the next when Dick describes the pain of feeling his memory slip away from him in real time. It's a beautiful film quite unlike anything else.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

It should be said straight up that I'm Thinking of Ending Things ,  Charlie Kaufman 's haunting adaptation of Iain Reid's novel, is probably not for everyone. It's also not the kind of movie that will tell you exactly what it's about; it doesn't really follows a linear, cause-and-effect plot, and the story unfolds according to dream logic. I'll describe it in the best way I can, though: A woman ( Jessie Buckley ) goes on a trip with her boyfriend ( Jesse Plemons ) to visit his parents, all while she's considering breaking up with him. It only gets trippier from there! The only things that are really made clear to the audience is that the woman is a wholly unreliable narrator and nothing is as it seems. If you like your movies a little out there, this one's totally worth checking out.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

Ma Rainey's Black Bottom

For fans of: Great performances from great actors, monologues

Chadwick Boseman,  Ma Rainey's Black Bottom

Year:  2020 Director:  George C. Wolfe Stars:  Chadwick Boseman, Viola Davis, Colman Domingo Genre:  Drama, Music Rating:  R Metacritic score:   87

Chadwick Boseman 's final film role was in this Netflix original, which is based on the Tony-nominated August Wilson play. Viola Davis stars as Ma Rainey, a powerhouse blues singer in 1927 Chicago who holds up a recording session to butt heads with her white manager, and Boseman plays a trumpeter in the recording session angling to get a foothold in the music business. On its own, it's a good film that has a lot to say about race and music ownership, but the performances from Davis and Boseman elevate it.  -Aliison Picurro   [ Trailer ]

Every movie and show coming to Netflix in October

Why October is actually the perfect month to rewatch Spy Kids

Share All sharing options for: Every movie and show coming to Netflix in October

Even with Netflix’s recommendation algorithm serving you new movies, new TV shows, and original programming tailored to your viewing habits, the streaming service’s firehose of content makes what’s coming and going difficult to parse.

October might be time for Halloween and all things spooky, but it’s also time to indulge in the joy of being a little kid again. And what’s a better way to do that than with the original Spy Kids trilogy? Just on the heels of Robert Rodriguez’s new entry to the franchise, the first three Spy Kids movies arrive to Netflix in the middle of October along with a lot of other new and returning titles, like Dune .

Editor’s pick: The Spy Kids movies

Kid-friendly movies that make kids the stars and indulge in zany fantasies did not originate with Spy Kids , but Spy Kids changed the game for two main reasons. One, it was in line with the popular genre movies of the time, and let kids be like the action heroes their parents were watching. And two, instead of making the movie look slick and grown-up, Rodriguez tapped right into a more garish and visually bright aesthetic. The result is childhood make-believe games come to life, with more budget than a Disney Channel Original Movie but the same ethos.

The original Spy Kids still holds up, and the sequels are both full of their own zany moments and quotable lines (and the A-Listers as villains and supporting grown-ups really help make them memorable). It’s time to get nostalgic — and maybe be Ingrid and-slash-or Gregorio Cortez for Halloween.

While there’s little doubt that we’ve been living these last few years in a Golden Age of Television, the fact of the matter is that as great as television shows are, sometimes you’re just in the mood for a nifty, self-contained story that won’t eat up days (weeks? months? YEARS?) of your life. Enter … drum roll please … THE MOVIES! Netflix has a wide assortment of some of the best movies ever produced, movies that run the gamut from high-concept action-adventure epics to low-key romantic comedies. No matter what you’re in the mood for —an insightful documentary, a pulse-pounding thriller, an uproarious comedy, a superhero origin story, or an Academy Award-winning masterpiece— Netflix has something you’re looking for.

‘glass onion: a knives out mystery’ (2022).

DIRECTOR: Rian Johnson STARS: Daniel Craig, Edward Norton, Janelle Monaé RATING: PG-13

Benoit Blanc is back and better than before in Glass Onion , Rian Johnson’s sequel to the phenomenon of Knives Out . This whodunit is bigger and smarter than the first, building on its successes while offering something that feels different and more incisive. It may well be Netflix’s smartest investment to date from their original films.

Watch Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery on Netflix

‘Role Models’ (2008)

DIRECTOR: David Wain STARS: Paul Rudd, Seann William Scott, Elizabeth Banks RATING: R

Role Models is in a rare echelon of movies that I’ve had to pause multiple times at home. And that’s not so people can go to the bathroom, mind you, that’s so people have time to catch their breath between belly laughs that last a distractingly large amount of time. The comedy flies fast and furious in David Wain’s film about two energy-drink salesmen doing court-ordered mentorship of children. Be it in the form pithy one-liners or a hold on Paul Rudd’s skeptical scowl just a second longer than you think it should, there’s always more to discover here.

Watch Role Models on Netflix

'Falling Inn Love' (2019)

DIRECTOR: Roger Kumble CAST: Christina Milian, Adam Demos, Jeffrey Bowyer-Chapman RATING: TV-PG

A classic entry into the B-rom-com genre Netflix has embraced over the last few years,  Falling Inn Love  follows city girl executive Gabriela (Milian) as she decides to leave everything behind after she enters a contest and wins a picturesque New Zealand inn. When she arrives, she realizes that the inn needs a lot more love than she expected, however, and she enlists the help of a charming contractor to flip it. You can probably guess where things go from there, but  Falling Inn Love  is a pleasantly surprising step above the tired drivel typical of its genre peers.

Stream  Falling Inn Love  on Netflix

‘Catch Me If You Can’ (2002)

DIRECTOR: Steven Spielberg STARS: Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken RATING: PG-13

Leonardo DiCaprio’s career has been laser-focused on shedding the “Tiger Beat” teen idol trappings that followed him after Titanic , so much so that he almost never allows himself to have fun on-screen in the name of being taken seriously. But every once in a while, he finds an excuse to cut loose like he does in Catch Me If You Can . Like a mid-century forebearer to today’s audacious scammers, DiCaprio’s Frank Abagnale Jr. cuts quite a trail of fraud and deception as he cons his way into three different professions with the FBI hot on his trail. He’s forging checks, breaking hearts, and proving irresistibly watchable.

Watch Catch Me If You Can on Netflix

'Invader ZIM: Enter The Florpus' (2019)

DIRECTOR: Hae Young Jung, Young Kyun Park, Jhonen Vasquez CAST: Richard Steven Horvitz, Rosearik Rikki Simons, Andy Berman RATING: TV-Y7-FV

A continuation of the beloved animated TV series that aired on Nickelodeon and Nicktoons in the early aughts,  Invader ZIM: Enter the Florpus  reunites us with ZIM as he discovers the Almighty leaders who left him on Earth have no plans to join him in invading the planet. With his confidence shot and his future uncertain, a defeated ZIM finally gives himself up to his arch nemesis Dib – but he quickly realizes all may not be lost after all, and hatches a plan to get his leaders to visit him.

Stream  Invader ZIM: Enter the Florpus  on Netflix

‘Silver Linings Playbook’ (2012)

DIRECTOR: David O. Russell STARS: Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, Robert De Niro RATING: R

I cannot deny that there is something a little too simplistic, and borderline problematic, about the way Silver Linings Playbook boils down to “love can overcome mental illness.” Yet I also cannot deny the way my heart swoons at this tender romance … nor the way the corners of my mouth curl into a grand smile. The aching, vulnerable performances of Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence as two newly single people connecting because of and through their brokenness make David O. Russell’s deeply personal film shine like gold.

Watch Silver Linings Playbook on Netflix

'Blue Jay' (2016)

DIRECTOR: Alex Lehmann CAST: Mark Duplass, Sarah Paulson RATING: TV-MA

Sarah Paulson and Mark Duplass star as former high school sweethearts in Blue Jay , a haunting tale of lost love and regrets shot in beautiful black-and-white. After a chance encounter in a grocery store, the two reflect on the connection between them that still stands, all the woulda-coulda-shouldas, and one pivotal event that they can’t quite move past. A devastating, bittersweet examination of choices and their complicated aftermath, Blue Jay is a memorable drama you won’t want to miss.

Stream  Blue Jay  on Netflix

'A Secret Love' (2020)

DIRECTOR:  Chris Bolan CAST:   Terry Donahue, Pat Henschel RATING: TV-14

If you don’t cry your way through  A Secret Love , there’s probably something wrong with you. The Netflix documentary tells the story of two women, Terry Donahue and Pat Henschel, who dated for almost 70 years before coming out to their families in 2013. It’s impossible not to tear up as Terry and Pat recount their epic love story — which begins with a nod to the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League depicted in  A League of Their Own  — and by the time they finally tie the knot in an emotional, family-oriented ceremony, viewers will be full-on blubbering. —  Claire Spellberg

Watch A Secret Love on Netflix

'Mank' (2020)

DIRECTOR:  David Fincher CAST:   Gary Oldman, Amanda Seyfried, Charles Dance RATING: R

Before you watch  Mank   on Netflix, you should lower your expectations just a smidge. It’s not quite the grand-slam you might expect from a David Fincher-director biopic about Citizen Kan e screenwriter Herman Mankiewicz that’s been nominated for 10 Oscars. That said, there are many, many reasons to stream Mank : the gorgeous cinematography, the Old Hollywood references, the pitch-perfect soundtrack from Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, and an Oscar-worthy performance from Amanda Seyfried.

Watch Mank on Netflix

'Set It Up' (2018)

DIRECTOR: Claire Scanlon CAST: Zoey Deutch, Glen Powell, Taye Diggs, Lucy Liu RATING: TV-14

Zoey Deutch and Glen Powell cement themselves as rom-com staples right away in this instant classic. This rom-com follows two assistants who team up to play matchmaker in secret for their respective bosses (Liu and Diggs). Their planned shenanigans and attempts at filling Cupid’s shoes may not always work out for their tightly-wound bosses, but as we might expect from any great rom-com, our dynamic duo can’t help but fall for each other (and charm us!) in the process.

Stream  Set It Up  on Netflix

‘The Little Rascals’ (1994)

DIRECTOR: Penelope Spheeris STARS: Travis Tedford, Bug Hall, Brittany Ashton Holmes RATING: PG

There’s something uniquely joyous about what Penelope Spheeris pulls off with her big-screen version of The Little Rascals . It’s a story about young boys and girls humorously ensconced in firm ideas of gender separation features what seems like juvenile humor … at least from how it generates giggles from young audiences. But there’s actually a deceptive amount of variety and sophistication at play in the film’s comedic stylings. Whether you’re maturing into what lies below the surface of this family favorite or discovering it for the first time, you’ll find something far more than lowest common denominator fare.

Watch The Little Rascals on Netflix

'Fear Street Part 1: 1994' (2021)

DIRECTOR: Leigh Janiak CAST: Kiana Madiera, Olivia Welch RATING: R

Attention queer women horror lovers (I know there are many of you):  Fear Street Part 1: 1994  on Netflix is not only a fun, gory, R-rated adaptation of the R.L. Stine book series, it’s also a super cute lesbian love story. The very charming  Kiana Madeira stars as a teen girl in the ’90s named Deena, who recently broke up with her girlfriend Sam (Olivia Welch), after Sam transferred from the downtrodden Shadyside High to their affluent rivals, Sunnyvale. But soon the girls have more to worry about than drama and rivalries when a masked killer starts terrorizing their friends. It’s a nostalgic throwback for ’90s kids that will also no doubt appeal to the horror-loving subset of Gen Z. And be sure to check out Parts 2 and 3, also on Netflix.

Stream Fear Street Part 1: 1994

'The Old Guard' (2020)

DIRECTOR: Gina Prince-Bythewood CAST: Charlize Theron RATING: R

The Old Guard is one of Netflix’s most popular original films ever. Veteran director Gina Prince-Bythewood jumped from Love and Basketball  and  The Secret Life of Bees  to a visually dynamic genre that’s superhero-adjacent, proving herself capable of bringing refreshing textures to a medium-to-large-ish-budget mainstream venture.

Watch The Old Guard on Netflix

'Mascots' (2016)

DIRECTOR:  Christopher Guest CAST: Jane Lynch, Parker Posey, Fred Willard, Ed Begley Jr., Christopher Moynihan, Don Lake, Zach Woods, Chris O’Dowd RATING: TV-MA

Little known secret:  Christopher Guest made a new mockumentary in 2016, it’s streaming on Netflix as an original film, and it’s excellent. From the same guy who brought you Best In Show  and  This Is Spinal Tap ,  Mascots  proves that Guest undeniably still got it. In what is essentially the same premise as  Best In Show  with sports’ team mascots, Guest brings back his longtime favorites—Jane Lynch, Parker Posey, Ed Begley Jr., Jennifer Coolidge, Don Lake, and the late, great Fred Willard—as well as a few new faces like Zach Woods, Sarah Baker, and Chris O’Dowd. The inside jokes for long-time fans are fun (including Guest reprising his role as Corky St. Clair from  Waiting for Guffman ), but like many of Guest’s movies, he saves the best for the very end. The final mascot competition is laugh-out-loud hysterical—a Eurovision parody four years before Will Ferrell did it. Just until you see the pencil sharpener act.

Watch Mascots on Netflix

‘American Beauty’ (1999)

DIRECTOR: Sam Mendes STARS: Kevin Spacey, Annette Bening, Thora Birch RATING: R

American Beauty is something of a punching bag for the film literate now, but guess what? Try as Kevin Spacey might to make this movie unwatchable (it is incredibly icky), this dark suburban satire is still resonant and riveting. This pitch-perfect distillation of a late-‘90s ethos treats the upper-middle class anxieties with the scorn and sincerity they deserve. It’s so obviously reaching for profundity, and you may be surprised how much it manages to grasp in spite of itself.

Watch American Beauty on Netflix

'Always Be My Maybe' (2019)

DIRECTOR: Nahnatchka Khan CAST: Ali Wong, Randall Park, Keanu Reeves, Daniel Dae Kim RATING: PG-13

One of the best rom-coms of the last decade,  Always Be My Maybe  tells the story of childhood friends Marcus (Park) and Sasha (Wong), who lose touch in their teenage years after they have sex. 16 years later; Sasha, now a celebrity chef, is engaged to a successful restauranteur (Kim), and Marcus plays in a small-time band and works for his dad. After Marcus and his father are inadvertently hired to install air conditioning in Sasha’s temporary home, the two rekindle their friendship and sparks begin to fly again – but not without a few obstacles (and Keanu Reeves) that attempt to put them out in the process.

Stream  Always Be My Maybe  on Netflix

‘Chicken Run’ (2000)

DIRECTORS: Peter Lord, Nick Park STARS: Mel Gibson, Julia Sawalha, Miranda Richardson RATING: G

Is it possible that the best prison escape movie is a stop-motion film about chickens fleeing a poultry farm? I don’t make the rules, but Chicken Run is both a fantastic parody of the genre’s classics and an entertaining adventure in its own right. The ingenuity of these chickens trying to quite literally fly the coop very nearly matches that of the claymation animators who made every painstaking frame of the film possible.

Watch Chicken Run on​​ Netflix

'The Mitchells Vs. The Machines' (2021)

DIRECTOR: Mike Rianda and Jeff Rowe CAST: Abbi Jacobson, Danny McBride, Maya Rudolph, Eric André, Olivia Colman, Fred Armisen, Beck Bennett, John Legend, Chrissy Teigen, Blake Griffin, and Conan O’Brien RATING: PG

Netflix’s new animated movie about a dysfunctional family who saves the world from a robot uprising delivers all of the brilliant laughs you’ve come to expect from a Phil Lord and Chris Miller joint, who produced the film. The characters are rich, the themes are timely, and the animation style is too much fun. And get ready to cry—the ending knows exactly how to tug on your heartstrings. The Mitchells Vs. The Machines  might just be the best Netflix animated film to date.

Watch The Mitchells Vs. The Machines  on Netflix

'The Irishman' (2019)

DIRECTOR:  Martin Scorsese CAST:   Robert De Niro, Ray Liotta, Joe Pesci RATING: R

Martin Scorsese’s latest film is a quiet masterpiece, worthy of being ranked with such classics as  Goodfellas  and  Casino . The 3 and-a-half hour crime drama reunites the auteur with frequent collaborators Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and Harvey Keitel and marks the first time Scorsese has worked with Al Pacino. Based on Charles Brandt’s book  I Heard You Paint Houses , the mob epic chronicles the life of Frank “The Irishman” Sheeran, who went from war veteran to truck driver/hit man for Russell Bufalino and the Philadelphia crime family to one of Jimmy Hoffa’s most trusted friends. Expansive, violent, gripping, and poignant,  The Irishman  proves that the worst fate that can befall a gangster is to live to be an old man.— Karen Kemmerle

Watch The Irishman on Netflix

'Homecoming: A Film By Beyoncé' (2019)

DIRECTOR: Beyoncé, Ed Burke CAST: Beyoncé Knowles-Carter, Blue Ivy Carter, Solange RATING: TV-MA

This career-defining film from Beyoncé Knowles-Carter may be defined as a “concert film”, but it is much, much more than that. Seamlessly blending beautifully-edited footage from her Coachella performances with behind-the-scenes segments that offer a glimpse into why Beyoncé is the legend she is,  Homecoming  stands alone. It’s simultaneously awe-inspiring, exciting, moving, tense, and personal, and indicative of the work ethic that has made her a household name around the world.

Stream  Homecoming: A Film by Beyoncé  on Netflix

‘Arrival’ (2016)

DIRECTOR: Denis Villeneuve STARS: Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, Forest Whitaker RATING: PG-13

“I used to think this was the beginning of your story,” begins Amy Adams’ Dr. Louise Banks at the opening of Arrival . It’s a perfect and poetic opening to a film that gently asks us to reconsider the very notion of time as an ordering principle of human life. Denis Villeneuve’s unconventional alien invasion movie is as brainy as it is beautiful and bold. It’s a startling thing to encounter: a movie that asks us not to fear unknown arrivals but to learn from them.

Watch Arrival on Netflix

‘Dune’ (2021)

DIRECTOR: Denis Villeneuve STARS: Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac RATING: PG-13

Desert POWER! It feels like a shame to watch Denis Villeneuve’s fantasy epic Dune in any environment other than a giant cinema, but the grandeur of his vision is sure to translate on a screen of any size. This is classical hero’s journey monomyth as Timothée Chalamet’s young Paul Atreides comes to realize the full weight of his messianic potential. This is the rare work of cinema that truly aspires to inspire shock, awe, and wonder – and Villeneuve’s engrossing universe commands that respect.

Watch Dune on Netflix

‘Call Me By Your Name’ (2017)

DIRECTOR: Luca Guadagnino STARS: Timothée Chalamet, Armie Hammer, Michael Stuhlbarg RATING: R

It’s exceedingly rare these days for a true “star is born” moment to play out on screen, but that’s exactly what happens with Timothée Chalamet’s breakout role in Call Me By Your Name . As precious teenager Elio Perlman who discovers the unknowns of his sensual side, Chalamet is in full control of his character’s turbulent emotional and physical state. He exhibits a stunning mastery of externalizing Elio’s internal confusion as he slowly gives over to his newfound infatuation for another man. His raw vulnerability makes this a journey of self-discovery and romance truly worth swooning over.

Watch Call Me By Your Name on Netflix

'Crip Camp' (2020)

DIRECTOR: Nicole Newnham and James LeBrecht RATING: R

If you, like me, are ignorant on the history of the disability rights movement in the United States, the new Netflix documentary  Crip Camp is a must-watch. Produced by Barack and Michelle Obama via their Higher Ground production company, Crip Camp tells the story of how a little hippie camp in upstate New York called Camp Jened played a crucial role in bringing together a community of disabled teens who grew up to be the very same activists instrumental to changing policies and American attitudes toward disabled people. Co-directed by Jim LeBrecth, a Camp Jened alum, and Nicole Newnham, the incredible archival footage from the camp will transport you back to the 1970s while teaching you a vital history lesson.— Anna Menta

Watch Crip Camp on Netflix

‘The Squid and the Whale’ (2005)

DIRECTOR: Noah Baumbach STARS: Jeff Daniels, Laura Linney, Jesse Eisenberg RATING: R

Familial strife has rarely felt so real or so raw than it has in Noah Baumbach’s The Squid and the Whale , an acerbic comedy based on the divorce of his own parents. In spite of the tough subject matter, the laughs are both pithy and plentiful. The film is brutally yet hilariously honest about the way parents imprint themselves on their children.

Watch The Squid and the Whale on Netflix

'Da 5 Bloods' (2020)

DIRECTOR: Spike Lee CAST:   Delroy Lindo, Clarke Peters, Norm Lewis, and Isiah Whitlock Jr. RATING: R

Few war movies have ever achieved what Spike Lee has done with  Da 5 Bloods . With artistic flair, gorgeous cinematography, and a career-defining performance from Delroy Lindo, Lee has created a war movie that examines the way racism, trauma, imperialism, and violence are tragically, inextricably intertwined. —Anna Menta

Watch Da 5 Bloods on Netflix

'Springsteen on Broadway' (2018)

DIRECTOR: Thom Zimny CAST: Bruce Springsteen RATING: TV-MA

This recording of the Broadway stint that sent ticket prices even higher than the cost of Hamilton ‘s admission is one of the best specials that Netflix has to offer. The Boss is at his best over the course of these 2-and-a-half hours, looking back on his life and career and what has made him the American icon he is today. While he shares tales many may never have heard before, his raw renditions of his beloved songs tell even more of his story, eliciting more than a few feelings in lifelong fans and newcomers alike.

Stream  Springsteen on Broadway  on Netflix

'Klaus' (2019)

DIRECTOR: Sergio Pablos, Carlos Martínez López CAST: Jason Schwartzman, J.K. Simmons, Rashida Jones RATING: PG

This delightful animated flick tells an alternate origin story of Santa Claus and features a slew of celebrity voices. Set in the 19th century,  Klaus  follows Jesper Johansson (Schwartzman), the spoiled, bratty son of a rich Postmaster General who decides to make Jesper work as a postman in an attempt to improve his character. When Jesper discovers he’ll be cut off from his family fortune unless he gets a distant town to post 6,000 letters in a year, he inadvertently encounters a reclusive toymaker named Klaus (Simmons) who teaches him the joy of giving and helps him change his life.

'The Trial of the Chicago 7' (2020)

DIRECTOR: Aaron Sorkin CAST: Sacha Baron Cohen, Eddie Redmayne, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Michael Keaton, Frank Langella, John Carroll Lynch, Mark Rylance, Jeremy Strong RATING: R

Aaron Sorkin can officially crown himself the king of the courtroom drama with the Golden Globe-nominated The Trial of Chicago 7 . He assembled an all-star cast to tell the true story of the Chicago Seven, a group of anti-Vietnam War protestors who were charged with conspiracy in 1969. It’s a complicated historical event with a large cast of characters, but Sorkin has always excelled at mining a great story from dense material. With flashbacks and legal testimonies, he masterfully builds suspense; revealing how the protests, intended as peaceful, turned violent at the drop of a hat.

Watch The Trial of the Chicago 7 on Netflix

'John Mulaney: Kid Gorgeous' (2018)

DIRECTOR: Alex Timbers CAST: John Mulaney RATING: TV-MA

Following his uproarious Oh, Hello On Broadway and a slew of other successful standup specials, SNL writers’ room vet and all-around funny guy John Mulaney returns to Netflix with Kid Gorgeous , a standup special that sees him recount childhood stories involving ghosts and stranger danger, the so-called value of college, his time at Saturday Night Live , aging, and one of the best Trump jokes in recent memory. With his boyish charm and top-notch sense of self-deprecation, Mulaney once again proves himself in Kid Gorgeous as one of our best working stand-ups. 

Stream  John Mulaney: Kid Gorgeous  on Netflix

'Dick Johnson Is Dead' (2020)

DIRECTOR:  Kirsten Johnson CAST:   Kirsten Johnson, Dick Johnson RATING: PG-13

Kirsten Johnson kills her own father half a dozen times in Netflix’s Dick Johnson Is Dead . But she always brings him back to life. This odd and heartwarming documentary comes four years after Johnson’s critically acclaimed film Cameraperson , a collage of her experiences behind the camera over the course of her life. This time, Johnson focuses on one aspect of her life: Her 86-year-old father’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis. Rather than accept her father’s fate, Johnson decided to try to prevent the thing she feared most—her dad’s death—by turning it into movie magic. –Anna Menta

Watch Dick Johnson Is Dead on Netflix

'El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie' (2019)

DIRECTOR: Vince Gilligan CAST: Aaron Paul, Jonathan Banks, Jesse Plemons RATING: TV-MA

For  Breaking Bad  fans who have been haunted by the fate of Jesse Pinkman (Paul) since the show’s conclusion, El Camino  may be able to offer you some much-needed closure. Racing against the clock and the law enforcement pursuing him, Jesse desperately tries to get enough money so he can have a chance at starting over with a new identity, free from his torturous past. Whether you’re excited to see familiar faces from Breaking Bad  and  Better Call Saul  or have never seen either series,  El Camino  is more than a satisfying dramatic experience.

Stream  El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie  on Netflix

'The Meyerowitz Stories' (2017)

DIRECTOR:  Noah Baumbach CAST: Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, Dustin Hoffman, Elizabeth Marvel, Grace Van Patten RATING: PG-13

On paper, this 2017  Noah Baumbach movie is about three siblings dealing with their artist father, Harold, as he fades into obscurity and convalesces from a head injury. But to me,  The Meyerowitz Stories  is all about Adam Sandler’s tear-sparkled, sad eyes. His character’s siblings, Matthew and Jean, get eighth-inning monologues that are obvious attempts to make their characters slightly more interesting. But Sandler’s performance dooms them to be two-dimensional by comparison. They can’t keep up with the steady sheepishness, lost-boy sensibility, and surprising ire that Sandler brings to his role. Watch this movie if you want to witness Adam Sandler flex his versatility. – Maddie Shepherd

'The Two Popes' (2019)

DIRECTOR: Fernando Meirelles CAST: Anthony Hopkins, Jonathan Pryce RATING: PG-13

There are no explosions, no teary monologues, and certainly no romance in Netflix The Two Popes . There is pretty much just a single conversation between Pope Benedict XVI (played yb Anthony Hopkins) and the soon-to-be Pope Francis (Jonathan Pryce). From director Fernando Meirelles and writer Anthony McCarten—who speculated what might have been said when Pope Benedict XVI made the historic, unprecedented decision to retire—it is a surprisingly compelling conversation. It helps that Hopkins and Pryce are perfectly cast, and so very, very good. Shout-out to editor Fernando Stutz, as well. That sound mixing!

Stream  The Two Popes on Netflix

'Monty Python and the Holy Grail' (1975)

DIRECTOR: Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones CAST: Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones, Michael Palin RATING: PG

It’s hard to imagine a comedy more classic than  Monty Python and the Holy Grail , an uproarious imagining of the grim Middle Ages and King Arthur and his knights’ quest to find the Holy Grail. Before all the Knights of the Round Table come together for their big job, however, they all embark on ridiculous individual adventures. With laugh-out-loud funny observations on class and existence in the Middle Ages and beyond, endlessly hilarious visual gags, and jokes we can’t help but reference today, there’s no question why The Holy Grail  is such an iconic piece of comedy.

Stream  Monty Python and The Holy Grail  on Netflix

'The Ballad of Buster Scruggs' (2018)

DIRECTOR: Joel Coen, Ethan Coen CAST: Tim Blake Nelson, Liam Neeson, James Franco, Tyne Daly, Zoe Kazan RATING: R

Originally conceived as a TV series for Netflix, the Coen brothers’  The Ballad of Buster Scruggs  is an anthology movie set in the brutal Old West. From a sociopathic singing gunslinger to a scheming showman to the actual grim reaper, each of the six segments focuses on the theme of death coming in different and shocking ways. While some may say the stand-out tale is “All Gold Canyon” starring Tom Waits as a old prospector determined to strike it rich, the real gem is “The Gal Who Got Rattled,” which features a stunning confrontation involving a band of Comanches, the leader of a wagon train (played by a scene-stealing Grainger Hines), and a tragic lady named Alice (a heartbreaking Zoe Kazan). Also starring Tim Blake Nelson, Liam Neeson, James Franco, and Tyne Daly,  The Ballad of Buster Scruggs  feels so authentic that you can actually feel trail grit in your teeth and smell death in the air.— Karen Kemmerle

Watch The Ballad of Buster Scruggs  on Netflix

'Dolemite Is My Name' (2019)

DIRECTOR:  Craig Brewer CAST:   Eddie Murphy, Wesley Snipes, Keegan-Michael Key, Devine Joy RATING: R

Comedian Eddie Murphy stars as Rudy Ray Moore, a comedian and blaxploitation star best known for his on-screen persona, the rhyming pimp named Dolemite. This biopic is not nearly as outlandish as Moore’s act, but it is the best Murphy’s been in years—and possibly ever. Dolemite Is My Name  is the perfect combo of boisterous fun and genuine heart. Keep your eye on  Empire ‘s Da’Vine Joy Randolph, who is irresistibly charming as Moore’s “protégé,” Lady Reed. As a bonus, this movie contains a scene where a man expresses vulnerability about exposing his body on screen. We love to see it!

‘Bo Burnham: Inside’ (2021)

DIRECTOR: Bo Burnham STARS: Bo Burnham RATING: TV-MA

Is it a stand-up special? A one-man show? A movie? Something else entirely? Whatever Bo Burnham made with Inside , it’s a singular experience that perfectly encapsulates the pandemic experience. Perhaps no one else but Burnham, whose star was made by the same Internet that now holds him captive, could reckon so forcefully and funnily with the digital forces that govern our lives.

‘Lost in Translation’ (2003)

DIRECTOR: Sofia Coppola STARS: Bill Murray, Scarlett Johansson, Giovanni Ribisi RATING: R

Sofia Coppola may well be our great contemporary chronicler of introverts. Not much happens in Lost in Translation – at least, not much in the way of conventional plot. But if you gaze long enough into the wistful longing of Bill Murray’s Bob and Scarlett Johansson’s Charlotte, two Americans of different ages and experiences adrift in their own way in Tokyo … you just might find a rich, textured interior world. Just because it isn’t expressed in words doesn’t mean it isn’t there.

'Tallulah' (2016)

DIRECTOR: Sian Heder CAST:   Elliot Page, Allison Janney, Tammy Blanchard RATING: TV-MA

Get in on the ground floor of filmmaker Sian Heder—whose film CODA was the breakout hit of the 2021 Sundance Film Festival—with her excellent feature debut on Netflix, Tallulah . Starring Elliot Page as a homeless teenager who kinda, sorta kidnaps a baby, and Allison Janney as the upper-middle-class woman who kinda, sorta harbors a fugitive, this is a hilarious and poignant film on the many messy and human aspects of womanhood.

Watch Tallulah on Netflix

'Okja' (2017)

DIRECTOR: Bong Joon-ho CAST: Tilda Swinton, Paul Dano, Jake Gyllenhaal, Ahn Seo-hyun RATING: TV-MA

Another hit from Bong Joon-ho, Netflix original  Okja  tells the story of Mija (Seo-hyun), a young girl willing to do anything to save her best friend – a genetically modified super pig – from the hands of an international corporation that plans on shipping Okja off to the slaughterhouse with the rest of her kind. A genre-blurring adventure featuring truly unhinged and wonderful performances from actors like Tilda Swinton and Jake Gyllenhaal,  Okja  is another testament to Bong Joon-ho’s one-of-a-kind storytelling.

‘The Lost Daughter’ (2021)

DIRECTOR: Maggie Gyllenhaal STARS: Olivia Colman, Jessie Buckley, Dakota Johnson RATING: R

What’s making Olivia Colman’s Leda tick? Just getting to the core of the inscrutable character’s psychology as she defies all logical expectations for behavior on a seaside getaway adds a level of tension to The Lost Daughter that most out-and-out thrillers can’t match. Maggie Gyllenhaal’s masterful adaptation of Elena Ferrante’s novel is a gripping character study but also has something to say about women at large. You won’t find a soapbox here for Gyllenhaal to preach about the limitations our culture imposes on mothers, just keen observations incisively woven into a larger tapestry of unexpected human interactions.

Stream The Lost Daughter on Netflix

'13th' (2016)

DIRECTOR: Ava DuVernay CAST: Angela Davis, Van Jones, Cory Booker RATING: TV-MA

From Ava DuVernay comes this stunning, utterly necessary documentary, a deep dive into the history of racial inequality in the United States and its massive and enduring role in the prison system. Employing both archival footage and testimony from prominent activists, scholars, politicians, and formerly incarcerated individuals, this Academy Award-nominated film tells the story of the perpetual disproportionate incarceration and generational trauma of Black people in the United States in an unforgettable and affecting manner.

Stream  13th  on Netflix

'To All The Boys I've Loved Before' (2018)

DIRECTOR: Susan Johnson CAST: Lana Condor, Noah Centineo, John Corbett RATING: TV-14

Netflix’s endearing adaptation of the hit YA novel is full of all the highs and lows of teen love that make coming-of-age romcoms great. Starting Lana Condor and Noah Centineo, the infinitely watchable teen comedy chronicles a teen girl’s life as each of her most significant crushes receive love letters from her they were never intended to read. Sweet, genuinely funny, and rife with chemistry between its two leads,  To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before  is a truly wonderful adaptation, but also stands tall all on its own.

Stream  To All The Boys I've Loved Before  on Netflix

‘Groundhog Day’ (1993)

DIRECTOR: Harold Ramis STARS: Bill Murray, Andie MacDowell, Chris Elliott RATING: PG

Sometimes, it’s a simple comedy that can raise the most profound existential questions. In Groundhog Day , Bill Murray’s weatherman Phil Connors must live out the same day on a seemingly infinite loop. It’s only when he stops seeing this affliction as a Sisyphean punishment and starts interpreting the repetition as a charge to do the most good that he can begin to escape. Any number of religious and philosophical movements see their teachings reflected here, and this very fact makes for a wonderful demonstration of all the things that unite us as humans.

Watch Groundhog Day on Netflix

'Roma' (2018)

DIRECTOR: Alfonso Cuarón CAST: Yalitza Aparicio, Marina de Tavira RATING: R

1970, Mexico City. Cleo Gutiérrez (Aparicio) is one of two indigenous live-in maids for an affluent family, speaking her native Mixtec with the other maid Adela, but speaking Spanish in the family’s presence. Things get complicated when Cleo becomes pregnant by her boyfriend and he leaves her, and the family deals with its own interpersonal drama. Over the span of a year, things change dramatically for both Cleo and the family, but one thing remains the same: the way life keeps moving. A beautiful, award-winning portrait of a year in the life for one woman,  Roma  is a career-triumph for Cuaron and his incredible cast.

Stream  Roma  on Netflix

'The Power of the Dog' (2021)

DIRECTOR: Jane Campion CAST: Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons RATING: R

Though it failed to win Best Picture, this Jane Campion western is still a masterpiece. Benedict Cumberbatch and Jesse Plemons star as Phil and George Burbank, brothers who own a ranch together in the year 1925. Their lives take a turn when George marries a widowed inn-owner (Kirsten Dunst) and moves in with their teenage son (Kodi Smit-McPhee). A tense family drama—underscored by excellent acting and an unforgettable score—unfolds. Then, in the last 15 minutes, this exquisite, quiet character study becomes a dark, twisted thriller. Don’t miss it.

Watch The Power of the Dog on Netflix

‘The Nice Guys’ (2016)

DIRECTOR: Shane Black STARS: Ryan Gosling, Russell Crowe, Matt Bomer RATING: R

The petition for Ryan Gosling to stop doing his stoic, stone-faced drama roles and commit full-time to comedy starts HERE! He’s absolutely electric in The Nice Guys as one half of a reluctant tag-team of ‘70s-era private eyes in the scuzzy scene of LA’s adult film world. Gosling constantly undercuts his suave, handsome image as a detective who’s a stumbling, pathetic mess – and director Shane Black perfectly pairs him opposite Russell Crowe’s grizzled, unamused enforcer. The mystery propelling the story is fun, sure, but the real highlight is just watching the two men banter and bristle against the other’s presence.

Watch The Nice Guys on Netflix

'Marriage Story' (2019)

DIRECTOR:  Noah Baumbach CAST:   Scarlett Johansson, Adam Driver, Laura Dern, Alan Alda RATING: R

Noah Baumbach’s Marriage Story is such an honest portrait of divorce that, at times, it’s excruciating. Adam Driver and Scarlett Johansson are Charlie and Nicole Barber—a snobby New York theater director and actress dreaming of Hollywood, respectively—and they love each other more than they hate each other. But, as they soon learn via Nicole’s ruthless lawyer (Laura Dern at her absolute best), the legal process brings out the worst in everyone. Marriage Story is lovely, devastating, and beautiful—a Kramer vs. Kramer that affords equal empathy to both sides. –Anna Menta

Watch Marriage Story on Netflix

‘Frances Ha’ (2013)

DIRECTOR: Noah Baumbach STARS: Greta Gerwig, Mickey Sumner, Adam Driver RATING: R

There’s a good chance that future generations will watch Frances Ha as something like a time capsule for understanding millennials. This story of Greta Gerwig’s emblematic slacker-cum-striver trying to claw her way toward adulthood captures something bigger than just one character’s journey. With her charm and clumsiness, she’s a surface onto which we can project our own hopes and anxieties. She’s a figure entirely of her time and also a timeless archetype of a person in the transition of life stages. If you haven’t met Frances yet, it’s time to have the delight of your life.

Nolan's 'Oppenheimer' Playing in IMAX Theaters for One More Week

Another need another dose of Oppenheimer before the year's over? Good news! Christopher Nolan's highly acclaimed movie is playing again in select IMAX theaters for one extra week - starting today, November 3rd . Nolan's Oppenheimer is one of this year's best movies, an exhilarating theatrical experience that has already had a massive impact worldwide with record-breaking box office, proving big screen storytelling can still draw big audiences. Universal Pictures is hoping it can cross over into $1 billion worldwide by letting it play a bit longer (it's currently at $947M ). Starring Cillian Murphy as the "Father of the Atomic Bomb", scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer , this three-hour long movie takes us on a journey from his early years through the Manhattan Project and after, when they unfairly took away his security clearance. Oppenheimer will show in select IMAX theaters, including 6 exclusive IMAX 70mm film locations – for one more week ( via IMAX ). It's one of the best experiences of the year - return for another round of cinematic magnificence.

Feudal Japan Epic Saga 'Shōgun' Series Trailer with Hiroyuki Sanada

"Life & death are the same. Both can have value & purpose." FX & Hulu have revealed an official trailer for an epic new historical series called Shōgun , created by writers Justin Marks & Rachel Kondo. An epic saga of war, passion, and power set in Feudal Japan. From James Clavell's novel of the same name , FX’s Shōgun is set at the dawn of a century-defining civil war. Lord Yoshii Toranaga is fighting for his life as his enemies on the Council of Regents unite against him, when a mysterious European ship is found in a nearby fishing village. Set in the 17th Century, it follows John Blackthorne, a sailor who rises from outsider to samurai, while being used as a pawn in Japanese leader Toranaga's struggle to reach the top of the ruling chain, or Shogun. The novel was previously adapted into a 1980 TV series , now with another fresh update. Hiroyuki Sanada stars as Yoshii Toranaga, co-starring with Cosmo Jarvis as Blackthorne, and a massive ensemble including: Tadanobu Asano , Anna Sawai , Yûki Kedôin , Eushin Lee , Tommy Bastow , Hiroto Kanai , Hiromoto Ida , Emi Kamito , Kengo Hashimoto , Sen Mars , Toshi Toda , Mako Fujimoto . I'm a huge fan of Sanada already, so I'm interested no matter what. All the other footage looks astonishing.

One More Gloriously Awesome Trailer for Japan's 'Godzilla Minus One'

"The future of this country is in our hands." Look at that glorious big boi chomping his way around Japan! Toho has revealed another new official trailer for Godzilla Minus One (or Godzilla -1.0 ) to celebrate the Japanese release this week. It's set to open worldwide in one month.

There are a few more awesome shots of Gojira biting and stomping and roaring in this ( the other official trailer ). I can't wait! This is going to rule! Bring on Godzilla.

Watch: Fascinating Sci-Fi Short 'From Beyond' About Aliens on Earth

"I want to grab them from the sky and throw them back to wherever." They have arrived. Are you ready? 🛸 It's time for something strange and unsettling. The highly anticipated sci-fi short film From Beyond is available to watch online now. This was initially teased last year with a trailer just before its Fantasia Film Festival premiere. After playing at fests, it's ready to be seen by everyone brave enough to watch. Described simply as a "kaleidoscopic depiction of alien life on Earth." I like Short of the Week's intro to this, saying it "gives the impression that it shouldn’t even be watched, as if it was something the audience has stumbled upon and wasn't meant to see." Creepy, right…? It's a sci-fi creation about what if alien life arrived to Earth, featuring a snippet of eerie clips about what humans will do next. Reminds me of the sci-fi shorts made from real NASA footage, like Robbie or Scavenger . Though this is something else entirely. There's nothing more to say – just click play below. "This is not a religion. It's a celebration. A celebration of absolute certainty."

Official Trailer for 'Bye Bye Barry' Sports Doc About a Running Back

"This guy did something special every single Sunday." NFL Films + Prime Video have revealed the main official trailer for the sports documentary Bye Bye Barry , arriving for streaming later in November. Not just another sports doc, this is a story about the mystery of one of the greatest athletes in American football history. When NFL superstar Barry Sanders vanished at the height of his career, he left the NFL world in shock. He was in his prime, chasing the all-time rushing record, when he boarded a flight to England and never stepped foot on the field again. 24 years later Barry retraces his steps through the streets of London to finally confront the mystery. "We've all watched his highlights and wished he had played longer in the NFL, and wondered why he really retired so abruptly. We are thrilled to look back at his extraordinary career and get to better understand one of the biggest icons of the sport," states Prime Video. While this still one big NFL promotion, it does look like a fascinating "let's reveal the truth" story about a football legend. He put out an autobiography in 2003 titled " Barry Sanders: Now You See Him ", if you want to read more right now.

Turkish Sci-Fi 'Once Upon a Time in the Future: 2121' Promo Trailer

"She is a rebel now." A festival promo trailer has debuted for a Turkish indie sci-fi film called Once Upon a Time in the Future: 2121 , which is still showing on the fest circuit now after premiering last year. It's actually a major achievement - this is the first sci-fi feature film made by a woman in Turkey, and it's also apparently Turkey's first sustainable film. Set in the future when Earth is uninhabitable due to climate crisis & famine. The few survivors form colonies and live in underground blocks. According to "The Scarcity Laws" of the Young Administration which controls this system, old generations must be destroyed in exchange for new lives. The life of a family that lives in one of the blocks is changed by a new baby they are expecting. A fascinating modern Turkish mashup between Silo and Logan's Run - or so it seems. Starring Selen Öztürk , Çagdas Onur Öztürk , Sukeyna Kiliç , and Ayseniil Samlioglu . This does look like a witty & clever take on the stuck-underground sci-fi concept, with some Turkish sensibilities that make it unique. Worth a look.

Terrence Howard & Dolph Lundgren in 'Showdown at the Grand' Trailer

"Stay away from my friends, my theater, and my neighborhood." Shout has debuted the official trailer for an indie action comedy titled Showdown at the Grand , from filmmaker Orson Oblowitz. This trailer has been out for a few weeks, but we're just catching up with it – looks like some harmless fun. It's an 80s action movie homage with a big battle at a vintage cinema. A proud movie theater owner honors action star turned recluse "Claude Luc Hallyday" with a retrospective of his illustrious career but when real estate developers show up to ruin the party, the two new friends must fight off corporate greed in the name of art. Showdown stars Terrence Howard , John Savage , Amanda Righetti , Piper Curda , and Swedish badass Dolph Lundgren as Claude Luc Hallyday. Looks like an entertaining tribute to movies they don't make anymore, and the way theaters used to be. Though it's also fairly cheesy & cliche, but perhaps that's part of the charm.

Alaqua Cox is Maya Lopez in Official Trailer for Marvel's 'Echo' Series

"You and I are the same. So… who's the monster?" Marvel has revealed the first trailer for a gritty, dark new Marvel Studios streaming series called Echo , arriving for streaming January 2024. This is a sort-of sequel to the Hawkeye series, more of a spin-off following a different character on her own adventures. After the events in Hawkeye in New York, Maya Lopez returns to her hometown in Oklahoma, where she must come to terms with her past, reconnect with her Native American roots, and embrace her family and community. She's pursued by Wilson Fisk's ( Vincent D'Onofrio ) criminal empire coming after revenge. Alaqua Cox (Menominee / Mohican) stars as Maya Lopez, with a cast including Chaske Spencer , Graham Greene , Tantoo Cardinal , Devery Jacobs , Zahn McClarnon , and Cody Lightning . All five episodes will be released in January, making Echo the first series from Marvel Studios to make all eps available to binge in one day. That doesn't seem like a good sign. But this footage does look pretty badass. Maybe it will be good?

Inside Look Promo for 'Monarch: Legacy of Monsters' Godzilla Series

"There is a legacy that goes back 70 years that we want to be respectful of…" Apple TV has revealed "An Inside Look" promo featurette for the Monarch: Legacy of Monsters series, a Godzilla series debuting this month. (Another Gojira anniversary tease today along with Godzilla Minus One .) Based on Legendary's Monsterverse, the 10-episode series follows two siblings find themselves revisiting the past — from present day to 1950s San Francisco in the wake of Godzilla and the Titans' destructive battle — to uncover the truth behind a secret organization and the many monsters in this world. The series stars Kurt Russell & Wyatt Russell (a real father-son duo playing the exact same character), Anna Sawai , Kiersey Clemons , Ren Watabe , Mari Yamamoto , Anders Holm , Joe Tippett , and Elisa Lasowski . Monarch was introduced in Gareth Edwards' 2014 Godzilla years ago, and has continued through their series of Godzilla movies. This featurette shows us some behind-the-scenes glimpses and a new look at some of the big kaiju monsters that appear in here. It's also a look at the many characters who are a part of this, following this story from past to present as they investigate the Monsterverse. It still looks damn good - I'll be watching, for sure. Who else?

French Murder Mystery Comedy 'The Crime Is Mine' Official US Trailer

"Life is so different now." Music Box Films has revealed an official US trailer for the French crime comedy titled The Crime Is Mine , one of the latest films from filmmaker François Ozon. This already opened in Europe earlier in 2023, some may already be familiar with it, but it's only coming to the US this December. Madeleine Verdier, a young actress, is accused of murdering a famous producer – but did she really do it? After being acquitted in court, she begins her new life of fame and success bolstered by the attention, until the truth finally comes out. Starring Nadia Terezkiewicz and Rebecca Marder , a satirical commentary on cancel culture and the #MeToo movement with a tale of murderous women. Adapted from a 1934 play by Georges Berr & Louis Verneuil, featuring a murder's row of a supporting cast members: Isabelle Huppert , Dany Boon , and Fabrice Luchini . The Crime Is Mine is a rollicking farce & scabrous satire with a wily feminist edge from one of French cinema's most chameleonic stylists, Ozon. This looks super kooky & witty.

Natalia Cordova-Buckley Stars in Creepy Horror 'The Portrait' Trailer

"You've seen him, haven't you?" "Seen whom?" Saban Films has revealed the trailer for horror mystery film The Portrait made in the UK, directed by filmmaker Simon Ross as his feature directorial debut. It will be heading to VOD directly to watch this fall if anyone wants to take a look. After her husband is devastated by a tragic accident, a devoted wife obsesses over a mysterious portrait that resembles him as he was; but when it starts to terrorize her, she must decide if it's possessed or if she's losing her mind. As with many horror films about grief, she must confront her deepest fears and unravel the unsettling truth before it's too late… Starring Natalia Cordova-Buckley , Ryan Kwanten , Isidora Goreshter , with Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Virginia Madsen . This looks creepy, reminds me of The Night House , though not as unique or scary.

Christmas Horror Film 'A Creature Was Stirring' Trailer w/ Chrissy Metz

"Something is wrong here…" Well Go USA has revealed the official trailer for an indie horror film called A Creature Was Stirring , made by filmmaker Damien LeVeck. This is getting a quick VOD release coming up in December, timed to be available the Holidays if you need to add any more Christmas horror to your watch list this year. Faith keeps her troubled teenage daughter on a tightly controlled but illicit pill regimen in order to ward off a terrifying affliction. However after a Christmas burglary, their dark family secret may finally be exposed. Uninvited strangers take shelter in her house during a lethal blizzard, and a monster is unleashed… Chrissy Metz stars with Annalise Basso , Scout Taylor-Compton , Connor Paolo , and George Schichtle . The poster art pretty much sets up what you're about to get, and the trailer has a few glimpses as well. I like the candy cane light, I just hope the creature is as gnarly as they're setting it up to be.

Every month, streaming services add movies and TV shows to its library. Here are our picks for some of November’s most promising new titles. (Note: Streaming services occasionally change schedules without giving notice. For more recommendations on what to stream, sign up for our Watching newsletter here .)

New to Amazon Prime Video

‘Invincible’ Season 2, Part 1 Starts streaming: Nov. 3

Season 1 of this ultraviolent superhero cartoon (based on a comic book series by “The Walking Dead” creator Robert Kirkman) introduced the title character: a teenager still developing and honing the superpowers he inherited from his space-alien father. Steven Yeun voices Invincible, a.k.a. Mark Grayson, who at the end of last season learned that his dad, Omni-Man (J.K. Simmons), had been serving as one of the Earth’s protectors while secretly paving the way for a future invasion by his own planet’s people. Season 2 picks up in the aftermath of that revelation, as Mark and his fellow heroes face a series of new supervillains while also strategizing for Omni-Man’s possible return. Though “Invincible” has dark moments, the show’s overall vibe is bright and entertaining, with enough nods to classic superhero tropes to please devoted comics readers.

Also arriving:

Nov. 10 “007: Road to a Million” Season 1 “Dina Hashem: Dark Little Whispers”

Nov. 14 “Trevor Wallace: Pterodactyl”

Nov. 17 “Ex-mas” “Maxine’s Baby: The Tyler Perry Story” “Twin Love” Season 1

Nov. 21 “Bye Bye Barry”

Nov. 29 “Pretty Hard Cases”

New to Apple TV+

‘The Buccaneers’ Season 1 Starts streaming: Nov. 8

Based on Edith Wharton’s final novel — left unfinished when she died in 1937 — “The Buccaneers” explores the flowering of the late-19th-century American aristocracy. Like the book, the series is about a group of wealthy young women who go to London to take part in the debutante season, invited by some established British families who want to lure these ladies (and their money) into marriages with cash-poor dukes and lords. Kristine Froseth takes the series’ lead as Nan St. George, the brightest of the Americans, who is supposed to be waiting in line for a husband behind her sister, Jinny (Imogen Waterhouse), but who instead finds herself courted by two men — Guy (Matthew Broome) and Theo (Guy Remmers) — who find her independence refreshing.

‘For All Mankind’ Season 4 Starts streaming: Nov. 10

This terrific alternate-history science-fiction TV series had an uncharacteristically shaky third season, with its thrilling outer-space action — set mostly on Mars — butting up against some much drearier relationship melodrama. Season 4 resets “For All Mankind” a bit, introducing new characters and kicking off a new story, set in the 2000s. These episodes see multiple private and government space agencies working together on ambitious areas of exploration, including tapping asteroids for their mineral resources. At the same time, issues with the existing infrastructures on the Moon and Mars create a fresh set of practical problems for our heroes to solve. Newcomers to the cast include Toby Kebbel as a former oil-rigger looking for work away from Earth and Daniel Stern as a former corporate chief executive trying to bring efficiency to NASA.

‘Monarch: Legacy of Monsters’ Season 1 Starts streaming: Nov. 17

This first live-action TV series set in the recent “Godzilla” and “King Kong” movies’ “MonsterVerse” divides its action between two eras: the 1950s, when the existence of giant creatures is still a closely guarded secret, and the present, where some cities have built underground shelters to withstand Godzilla attacks. Anna Sawai plays Cate, who goes looking for the truth about her father’s connection to the mysterious monster-studying Monarch agency. Wyatt Russell and Kurt Russell both play Lee Shaw, who became involved with Monarch as a U.S. soldier in the 1950s — and who a half-century later may be the only one who can help Cate. The creator Chris Black, who developed the show with the writer Matt Fraction, uses footage from the MonsterVerse films to add a sense of scope and awe to a series that is as much about the humans than it is about the big beasts looking to stomp them.

Nov. 3 “Fingernails”

Nov. 22 “The Velveteen Rabbit”

New to Disney+

‘The 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony’ Starts streaming: Nov. 3

After years of HBO airing a recorded and edited version of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s annual induction ceremony, this year Disney+ has the rights to the event, and will be broadcasting it live and uncut. The 2023 inductees, some of whom will be performing, include Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow, Missy Elliott, Chaka Khan, Willie Nelson and Rage Against the Machine. Presenters include Carrie Underwood, Common, Ice-T, Queen Latifah and Sia. These ceremonies do last a while, but they also tend to be full of emotional moments and genuine surprises, so for pop music buffs who can’t see the show in person, this is a rare chance to watch the action unfold as it happens — and then to watch it again later, in the Disney+ catalog.

Nov. 23 “The Naughty Nine”

‘A Murder at the End of the World’ Starts streaming: Nov. 14

The writer-director-producer team of Zal Batmanglij and Brit Marling are best-known for their Netflix supernatural mystery series “The OA,” which was canceled before Batmanglij and Marling could finish the story. They are staying in the same genre for this mini-series, which puts the duo’s usual spacey spin on the “country house murder mystery” plot. Clive Owen plays an eccentric tech billionaire who invites a group of influential thought leaders to his magnificent resort hotel in an icy wasteland. The one guest who does not seem to fit in with the rest is Darby Hart (Emma Corrin), a skilled hacker and amateur detective who wrote a popular true crime book. When someone on the property turns up dead, Darby has to find the killer and also convince her fellow partygoers that something strange is going on — all while she reckons with some secrets from her own past.

‘Fargo’ Season 5 Starts streaming: Nov. 22

After a long layoff, Noah Hawley’s offbeat crime series “Fargo” is back, with 10 more episodes set (very loosely) in the same blood-spattered “Minnesota nice” reality as Joel and Ethan Coen’s Oscar-winning 1996 movie. Previous seasons took place in 1950, 1979, 2006 and 2010. The fifth season takes place in 2019, and stars Juno Temple as Dot, a seemingly ordinary housewife who gets in trouble with the law and sees her shady past catching up to her, in the form of an authoritarian right-wing sheriff (Jon Hamm) determined to catch her. Jennifer Jason Leigh plays Dot’s mother-in-law, an icy collection agency magnate who usually leans on her lawyer (Dave Foley) to get her family members out of trouble — but who has no idea what she is dealing with in the sweet but deadly Dot.

Nov. 30 “A Compassionate Spy” “Wild Crime” Season 3

‘Julia’ Season 2 Starts streaming: Nov. 16

Season 1 of this delightful biographical dramedy was one of last year’s unexpected TV gems, thanks in large part to Sarah Lancashire’s luminous performance as the boisterous, can-do cooking instructor Julia Child, coupled with David Hyde Pierce’s warm, wry take on her supportive husband, Paul. The first season was all about how the Childs committed their time, energy and money toward realizing their dream of creating a public television show that could demystify and popularize French food. In Season 2, Julia has become an unlikely celebrity, and she and Paul have to fight to maintain the quality of their show while all the people who doubted them before come running to cash in on their success.

‘Lawmen: Bass Reeves’ Starts streaming: Nov. 5

The first installment of a new true crime anthology series — with each season telling the story of some famous cop or crook — “Lawmen: Bass Reeves” stars David Oyelowo as Reeves, the western hero who in his life went from being enslaved on a Texas plantation to serving with distinction as a U.S. Marshal. Oyelowo is also an executive producer (as is the “Yellowstone” creator Taylor Sheridan) on this historical drama that stretches across decades, covering an eventful life that overlapped with some of the biggest social changes in America: from the end of the Civil War to the expansion of the frontier. Created by the writer-producer Chad Feehan, this first season of “Lawmen” looks at classic Western mythology through different eyes, considering what ideals like freedom and justice mean to someone born in chains.

‘The Curse’ Starts streaming: Nov. 10

The comedian Nathan Fielder has spoofed reality TV throughout his career, and especially in his series “Nathan for You” and “The Rehearsal.” His latest project — cocreated with the filmmaker Benny Safdie — takes a different approach to the genre, via a fictional story with a serrated satirical edge. Fielder plays Asher Siegel, who alongside his wife, Whitney (Emma Stone), is shooting an HGTV show called “Flipanthropy,” in which the couple helps the struggling residents of a small New Mexico town move into cutting-edge eco-friendly houses. When a young street peddler puts a curse on the stingy Asher, the Siegels’ marriage and television collaboration both begin to suffer. A commentary on the contrived rosiness of home improvement shows, “The Curse” also touches on gentrification, xenophobia, and the deep need of some do-gooder types to be lauded for their largess, even when their efforts hurt more than help.

Nov. 1 “Ink Master” Season 15

From ‘Priscilla’ to ‘The Marvels,’ Here’s Everything We’re Watching This Month

By Keith Phipps

Keith Phipps

There’s no shortage of new shows and films to watch and enjoy this November, from Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla and a new Meg Ryan-directed romcom , to the long-anticipated A Murder at the End of the World .

This month’s TV slate also sees familiar favorites making their return, including For All Mankind , The Crown (beginning its final season), and even Fargo (whose cast this season includes Juno Temple and Jon Hamm).

Similarly, you could have a pretty good November at the movies simply by catching up with some titles that made their debut at the end of October. Nyad , The Killer , and The Holdovers all crept into the end of the month in limited release but will soon be more widely available. That’s also true of the first film on our list, which played a few theaters at the end of the month. Beyond that, it’s a November filled with new and exciting shows and movies.

(Plus: Check out our list of the 42 Must-See Movies of Fall 2023 .)

Best Movies and Shows to Watch: November 2023

Priscilla (theaters, 11/3).

Working from Priscilla Presley’s 1985 memoir Elvis and Me , Sofia Coppola’s latest keeps the focus squarely on Elvis Presley’s wife, from the moment she met the King of Rock & Roll as a 14-year-old in Germany through the end of the marriage. It’s a showcase for Cailee Spaeny ( Mare of Easttown ), who depicts Priscilla’s transformation. It’s what Rolling Stone calls “Sofia Coppola at her best.” Get Tickets on Fandango

What Happens Later (Theaters, 11/3)

For her second film as a director, Meg Ryan returns to the genre that made her a star via a rom-com about aging and second chances. Ryan stars Willa, who finds herself forced to reexamine her past after bumping into an ex named Bill (David Duchovny), then spending the night reminiscing with him when they found themselves snowbound at an airport. Get Tickets on Fandango

All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt (Theaters, 11/3)

A Sundance hit, Raven Jackson’s debut film earned widespread acclaim for its lyricism and confidence. Set in Mississippi, the film follows Mack (played as an adult by Charleen McClure and at various ages by Kaylee Nicole Johnson and Zainab Jay) from childhood to adulthood. Get Tickets on Fandango

Fingernails (Theaters / Apple TV+, 11/3)

In the near future, love can be verified scientifically. Or can it? Jessie Buckley stars as Anna, a woman who takes a job at a love-testing institute alongside Amir (Riz Ahmed). Christos Nikous directs. Stream it on Apple TV+

Rustin (Theaters, 11/3, Netflix 11/17)

Colman Domingo leads a star-packed cast in this biopic of civil rights activist Bayard Rustin, the 1963 March on Washington architect. Those joining Domingo in this George C. Wolfe-directed film include Chris Rock, Audra McDonald, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and Jeffrey Wright. Get Tickets on Fandango

Lawmen: Bass Reeves (Paramount+, 11/5)

The Taylor Sheridan TV empire expands with this series based around the life of Bass Reeves (David Oyelowo), whose life took him from slavery to service as a lawman. Dennis Quaid co-stars. Stream it on Paramount+

The Buccaneers (Apple TV+, 11/8)

Edith Wharton never finished her final novel but that doesn’t mean it can’t be adapted. In fact, maybe it opens up more possibilities, giving British comic Katherine Jakeways, who serves as the series’ showrunner, leeway in reworking Wharton’s story about four American women’s misadventures in 1870s London. Stream it on Apple TV+

The Marvels (Theaters, 11/10)

Albert Brooks: Defending My Life (Max, 11/10)

The great comic and filmmaker behind Lost in America and other classics talks to old friend Rob Reiner about his life and career. That’s a pretty simple set-up for a special, but with Brooks it will undoubtedly be enough. Stream it on Max

Dream Scenario (Theaters, 11/10)

Norwegian director Kristoffer Borgli drew the attention of those who appreciate the weird with last year’s Sick of Myself and hasn’t wasted any time in making his next film. Borgli’s English-language debut stars Nicolas Cage as a college professor who inexplicably begins turning up in the dreams of others. Get Tickets on Fandango

The Curse (Showtime, 11/12)

Nathan Fielder’s follow-up to The Rehearsal finds him partnering with Benny Safdie (who co-created the show and serves as a co-star) for another genre-bending series. In The Curse , Fielder and Emma Stone play married hosts of a home improvement show whose latest venture may be, well, cursed. Stream it on Showtime

A Murder at the End of the World (Hulu, 11/14)

Fielder’s not the only cult favorite resurfacing this November. Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, creators of The OA , return with a series starring Emma Corrin as Darby Hart, one of a handful of guests at the home of billionaire Andy Robson (Clive Owen) when a murder occurs. Can she solve it? Chances are it won’t be simple. Stream it on Hulu

Saltburn (Theaters, 11/17)

Writer/director Emerald Fennell’s follow-up to Promising Young Woman , Saltburn offers a dark riff on Brideshead Revisited via the story of Oliver Quick (Barry Keoghan), an outsider at Oxford who joins his friend Felix (Jacob Elordi) for a summer at Felix’s stately family home. Rosamund Pike, Richard E. Grant, and Carey Mulligan round out the cast. Get Tickets on Fandango

Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain (Peacock, 11/17)

The SNL comedy trio of Ben Marshall, John Higgins, and Martin Herlihy make a venture into feature films with this story of three sporting goods store employees in search of a precious artifact. Conan O’Brien and Bowen Yang co-star. Stream it on Peacock

Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (Apple TV+, 11/17)

An extension of the MonsterVerse — the movie franchise featuring Godzilla, King Kong, and occasionally both — this new series explores the history of Monarch, the mysterious organization that keeps track of the giant monsters threatening the Earth. Jumping between several decades, its stars include both Wyatt Russell and dad Kurt Russell, who play the same character at different ages. Stream it on Apple TV+

Scott Pilgrim Takes Off (Netflix, 11/17)

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World , Edgar Wright’s adaptation of Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Scott Pilgrim graphic novel series , underperformed at the box office in 2010 but picked up a fervent cult following. That undoubtedly helped lead to this sequel / reworking, which reunites the original cast of Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Kieran Culkin and others (or their voices, anyway) for an animated series. Stream it on Netflix

Napoleon (Theaters, 11/22)

Ridley Scott loves sweeping stories set in the past and his latest is no exception. Reuniting with his Gladiator director, Joaquin Phoenix stars as French emperor with Vanessa Kirby by his side as Josephine. Get Tickets on Fandango

Wish (Theaters, 11/22)

Disney’s latest animated feature is set in the Kingdom of Rosas where Asha (Ariana DeBose) senses there’s something terribly suspicious about the land’s king (Chris Pine). To save Rosas, she must pair with an anthropomorphic star (and, presumably, sing a song or two). Expect some echoes of Frozen in the film, which was co-written by Jennifer Lee (working with Allison Moore) and co-directed by Chris Buck and Fawn Veerasunthorn. Get Tickets on Fandango

Maestro (Theaters, 11/22)

Returning again to the world of music (if a different branch than the one found in A Star is Born ), Bradley Cooper directs, co-writes (with Josh Singer), and stars in Maestro . It’s a dramatization of the life of Leonard Bernstein and his complex marriage with actress and activist Felicia Montealegre. The supporting cast includes Matt Bomer, Maya Hawke, and Sarah Silverman. Get Tickets on Fandango

Leave the World Behind (Theaters, 11/22)

A married couple’s (Julia Roberts and Ethan Hawke) vacation takes an unexpected turn when the owners (Mahershala Ali and Myha’la) of the Airbnb in which they’re staying show up unexpectedly. What’s more, they bring news of a blackout that may signal a more extensive cataclysm. Sam Esmail ( Mr. Robot ) directs Leave the World Behind , adapting the novel by Rumaan Alam .

Godzilla Minus One Spoilers: What Will Happen in the New Movie?

• Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

With Godzilla Minus One hitting Japan early, fans across the globe are looking for spoilers from the movie. Here’s all we know about the movie from the trailers and other rumors so far.

What are the Godzilla Minus One spoilers?

Separate from all past entries.

Even though the latest Toho Godzilla movie is the 33 rd entry for the character, it is separate from all Godzilla entries of the past. The movie is set in a new continuity and could span a new cinematic universe if it turns out to be successful.

Official Synopsis

The official description suggests that “after the war, Japan’s economic state has been reduced to zero. Godzilla appears and plunges the country into a negative state.”

The monster wreaks havoc across the country and makes its situation even worse.

Godzilla isn’t a savior

As the trailers, synopsis, and rumors suggest, Godzilla does not come in as a savior. This is a mutated version of the character who is rumored to be woken up by an atomic bomb. He is angry and comes to Japan to cause total annihilation. He isn’t the protector we’ve known him to be in the recent MonsterVerse movies of Hollywood.

Godzilla uses his atomic breath

Something that’s pretty clear in the trailers is that Godzilla will be seen using his atomic breath toward the final act of the film. He won’t be holding any punches.

The Two Godzillas Rumor

A common rumor being spread around on social media and forums is that there will be two Godzillas in the film. One would be the aforementioned angry Godzilla mutated by an atomic bomb, while the other would be a more natural Godzilla who shows up to stop the mutated version. However, this piece of information needs to be taken with a grain of salt as it doesn’t come from any official source.

The cast of Godzilla

Godzilla Minus One features a stellar Japanese cast, including Ryunosuke Kamiki as Koichi Shikishima and Yuki Yamada as Shiro Mizushima. Others involved are Munetaka Aoki as Sosaku Tachibana, Minami Hamabe as Noriko Oishi, Sakura Ando as Sumiko Ota, Hidetaka Yoshioka as Kenji Nada, and Kuranosuke Sasaki as Yoji Akitsu.

Godzilla Minus One opens in Japan on November 3, 2023. It will be released on December 1, 2023, in the U.S.
