Skip the algorithm and go straight to the good stuff. This makes the challenge of keeping up to date with best the service has to offer — let alone finding something the best of what to watch after a long day — a task that feels herculean at best and impossible at worst for someone not plugged into its inscrutable rhythms.
And for our readers across the pond, we have a list of the best movies on Netflix U. Before Daniel Craig was employing his faux Southern drawl to solve murders as Benoit Blanc , he was using an even sillier accent as the explosives expert Joe Bang in Logan Lucky. One of the funniest movies of the last several years, Logan Lucky follows two brothers who decide to pull off a heist at Charlotte Motor Speedway with the help of Joe and a few more members of their crew.
The extremely funny performances by Craig, Channing Tatum, and Adam Driver are immediate highlights of the movie, but the standout belongs to a very drawn-out Game of Thrones joke that just gets funnier every single year. We prioritize quality, unique artistic vision, and variety — different genres, different eras, different vibes, different filmmaking nations — to make sure every reader finds multiple options that interest them, as well as movies they may have never encountered before.
The movie follows two lowly soldiers George MacKay, Dean-Charles Chapman in the first World War, tasked with delivering a message from one spot on the front lines to another in hopes of saving more than a thousand English soldiers. This is a harrowing and extraordinarily dangerous assignment that takes the pair through terrifying battlefields and through horrific burnt down cities, as the characters stumble their way from one incredible set piece to the next.
When the movie is at its best, the one-take style is barely noticeable, instead transporting you to the shoulder of the characters, letting you feel the walls of the battlefield close in around the both of you as bullets and explosions rock the scene.
