While the comedian has made some absolute stinkers over the years, he's also had plenty of smash hits. Despite the poor response from the critics, Murder Mystery was one of the most-watched films of 2019! In the first month, over 73,000,000 households watched Sandler's latest Original film. 48. Justin Timberlake + The Tennessee KidsDirector: Jonathan Demme
The final performance of Justin Timberlake and the Tennessee Kids' 20/20 Experience World Tour, filmed in 2015 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. This is a brilliant and captivating performance by Justin Timberlake in the culmination of his 20/202 world tour. 47. TallulahDirector: Sian Heder
A young woman takes a baby from an irresponsible mother and pretends the child is hers. Without a place of her own, she asks for the help of her ex-boyfriend's mother, telling her the baby is her granddaughter. This film surprisingly went under the radar back in 2016. It's a charming movie with a brilliant performance from Ellen Page that brings an insightful look into what makes a mother. Entertaining from the outset, make sure to add this to your watchlist for those nights in. 46. Little EvilDirector: Eli Craig
A newly married man starts to believe that his 5-year-old stepson is the spawn of Satan. For a spoof, Little Evil is surprisingly great. With a hilarious performance from Adam Scott playing the role of step-dad, he tries to be a great father to his new stepson. The hilarity kicks in once he starts to believe his stepson is actually the Anti-Christ. With a lot of heart, this sweet and charming take on the "Spawn of Satan" genre deserves a place in your queue. 45. Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and VileDirector: Joe Berlinger
Shown from the perspective of Elizabeth Kloepfer, Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vilechronicles the events of Ted Bundy's infamous and terrible crimes. Elizabeth the longtime girlfriend of Ted Bundy refused to believe the awful truth behind Bundy's good looks and charismatic charm. While the film has split opinion down the middle, Zac Efron's performance as the charming and yet cold killer Ted Bundy is great. Finally, in a role where he can show off some of his acting talents, his performance was aided with the equally excellent Lilly Collins. This needs to be added to your que ASAP! 44. The BabysitterDirector: McG
A new twist on the horror/comedy, this fun bloodfest is a modern twist on the Home Alone-style story. Twelve-year-old Cole Johnson is dared by his friends to spy on his babysitter 'Bee' to see what she gets up too while he's supposed to be asleep, what starts out as a simple game of truth or dare between Bee and her friends she's brought to his home, to Cole's horror he witnesses a demonic ritual, caught by her friends Cole must fight for his life to stop Bee and her Murderous friends. While not critically acclaimed this was certainly a new take on the horror/comedy genre. A fun film and a must watch out from the Netflix catalog. 43. TrampsDirector: Adam Leon
Pulled into a shady briefcase swap for different reasons, young strangers Danny and Ellie spend two days trying to get the briefcase back after the deal goes wrong. A short and sweet film that compacts a lot in its 82 Minute run time, director Adam Leon was able to capture its charm and intimacy showing that we don't always need a big epic plot all we need sometimes is a small setting and an excuse for two people to fall for each other. A sincere and fantastic little love story, make sure you give it a watch. 42. Gerald's GameDirector: Mike Flanagan
As you'd expect from an adaptation of a Stephen King novel, this movie is one of the tensest in the original library, scoring well with fans and critics alike. Set in rural Alabama, this film is about a couple who tries to spice up their sex life with disastrous consequences, turning into a fantastic psychological horror. As you'd expect from a superbly written Stephen King novel, the characters are well fleshed out and most importantly, the tension that his books achieve so well to build carries over to the movie equivalent. A must watch. 41. Imperial DreamsDirector: Malik Vitthal
Reformed gangster Bambi has his devotion to his family is tested when he is released from prison and returns to his old neighborhood. Technically one of Netflix's oldest Originals, the film initially released in early 2014 at the Sundance film festival. It wasn't until three years later that Netflix would pick up the exclusive rights to stream the movie. Initially one of John Boyega's first big lead roles, his captivating performance shows why he has gone on to star in Star Wars, one of the biggest franchises in movie history. Cynical and less glamorous than other L.A gangster films, Imperial Dreams gives you an insight into the struggle of a post-incarcerated black man. 40. I Don't Feel at Home in this World AnymoreDirector: Chris Smith
After being burgled, depressed woman Ruth and her obnoxious neighbor set out to find the thieves, but they soon find themselves up against a group of dangerous criminals. Easily best described as a dark comedy, this film takes you on a journey you least expect to take. The acting is fantastic with a notable performance by Melanie Lynskey and a great directorial feature film debut from Macon Blair. This film produces a sense of realism. While some may see that as depressing feature, shining a light on what's wrong with the world makes it a more captivating film to watch. 39. Winter on Fire – Oscar NominatedDirector: Evgeny Afineevsky
A civil rights movement erupts in Ukraine after a peaceful student protest quickly morphs into a violent revolution. Powerful, captivating and harrowing, this documentary was nominated for an Oscar after its release in 2015 and it's understandable to see why. If you were unsure as to what happened in Ukraine back in the winter of 2013/2014 you'll witness harrowing first-hand accounts of what the Ukrainian protesters had to contend with to fight for their freedom of speech. What started out as peaceful protests almost tore the country asunder. 38. Our Souls At NightDirector: Ritesh Batra

When Addie tries to make a connection with her neighbor, the two begin sleeping in bed together platonically, with the innocent goal of alleviating their shared loneliness.

Jane Fonda and Robert Redford reunite to take part in this very sweet and heart touching movie. Diving deep into how the soul deals with a loss, this charming film will pull on the heartstrings. 37. Christmas ChroniclesDirector: Clay Katis

At the time of writing the film has already been watched over 20,000,000 times! A future Christmas classic, the latest Christmas original has been enjoyed by millions worldwide. Kurt Russell's casting as Jolly Saint Nick was nothing short of fantastic. 36. The Other Side of the WindDirector: Orson Welles
An aging director returns to the film industry after his self-imposed exile. Hoping to reignite his failing career director John Huston creates an extravagant comeback film. The last ever film by legendary film director as taken almost 50 years to release since production began in 1970. The film could be considered a self-reflection of how Orson Welles may have felt during the making of this film. While the film hasn't had the same impact as Citizen Kane, The Other Side of The Wind is a fitting swan song for a director long since past. 35. VirungaDirector: Orlando von Einsiedel
A team of brave individuals risks their lives to protect the last mountain gorillas. Sometimes we forget the evil humanity can commit and the dangers of the of our civilization and what it does ecosystems of the world. The fact this documentary is central to the last group of Mountain Gorillas speaks for itself, with that this documentary deserves the same level of attention as what Blackfish received, this heart-wrenching documentary will keep you in suspense and tear at your emotions as you have to deal with the harrowing account of the Gorillas plight for survival and those that protect them. 34. Between Two Ferns: The MovieDirector: Scott Aukerman

In an effort to restore his reputation, Zach and the crew hit the road interviewing high profile celebrities along the way. After a six-year hiatus, Zach and his ferns came back to conduct even more hilarious and cringe-inducing interviews with celebrities. 33. The Fundamentals of CaringDirector: Rob Burnett
Selena Gomez is no stranger to Netflix as she produces the infinitely popular Netflix Original series, 13 Reasons Why. Before that released though came this quaint comedy starring herself and Paul Rudd. The comedy looks to tear apart stigmas of disabilities as a writer who is stuck in the past and a young boy with a disability venture on a road trip together. It's a feel-good story that has a great ending and a fun soundtrack throughout. Despite Paul Rudd now being best known for his role in Ant-Man, we believe this is his defining role as it just goes to show that not all superheroes wear capes. 32. Taylor Swift's Reputation TourDirector: Ben Wheatly
Mega Pop-Star takes to the stage for her record-breaking 5th worldwide stadium tour. Performing her latest and best music in her phenomenal set, Taylor wowed millions of fans worldwide. 31. Triple FrontierDirector: J.C. Chandor

Based on the novella of the same name by Stephen King, a wonderful film of suspense this movie will keep you on the edge of your seat as it explores what guilt can do to the human mind. The screenplay was written and directed by Zak Hilditch and his adaptation is definitely a must-watch. Even Stephen King infamously known for panning adaptations of his work praised the film. 29. Always Be My Maybe (2019)Director: Nahnatchka Khan

First They Killed My FatherDirector: Angelina Jolie
Amid the sudden and terrifying rise of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, 7-year-old girl Loung Ung must fight for her survival. Told from the narrative of a child, Angelina Jolie's 6 directing credit is her best to date. With an emphatic approach to the emotion that a child goes through during a time of great turmoil, this film was handled beautifully. Well received by both critics and audiences at home, this gracefully crafted film is a highlight of the Netflix library. 27. The Meyerowitz StoriesDirector: Noah Baumbach
Sandler ditches his traditional in your face comedy for a beautifully written movie with some fantastic talent involved. Ultimately, the movie is about a broken family with two sons who have spent their life vying for their father's attention. Both have taken different directions in their lives with neither seemingly being good enough for their father. The movie is dubbed as a comedy but it's actually more of a drama interspersed with subtle humor and a family dynamic that's three dimensional and realistic. If none of the other Netflix Sandler movies are to your taste then this is the movie for you. 26. High Flying BirdDirector: Steven Soderbergh

Stefan's choices are your choices, will Bandersnatch become a smash hit or will the pressure go to poor Stefan's head?

Most fans may have preferred an actual film/episode but all credit to Netflix and Charlie Brooker's team for putting together an enigmatic title like Bandersnatch. If you haven't already tuned make sure to add this to your watchlist right now! 24. Private LifeDirector: Tamara Jenkins

With not much hope of ever having a child, they turn to the daughter of their Sister-in-Law for help in the hope of having a child. While Private Life is one of the latest films available to stream on Netflix the movie actually debuted earlier this year at the Sundance film festival and was well received by critics for its handling of a story of such a sensitive nature. the film will take you on an emotional roller coaster of emotions. 23. Mowgli: Legend of the JungleDirector: Andy Serkis

But as his trial to join officially join his wolf pack draws closer, the threat of Shere Khan looms over the jungle. There have been many adaptations of Rudyard Kipling's novel over the years and many would have thought it too soon after Disney's 2016 adaptation. But with Andy Serkis in the director's seat, it's clear how much influence he had on the animation of the film. It took many years for the film to finally be released but what a spectacle it is. Make sure to add this film to your watch list. 22. Rocko's Modern Life: Static ClingDirectors: Joe Murray, Cosmo Segurson

Lara's best friend leaked the letters in the hope of getting Lara a boyfriend. Soon her love life goes from 0 to a 100. Prior to production, there had been many studios interested in producing the film, but nearly all wanted to change the lead character to Caucasian over Asian. Finally finding a studio that was happy to progress with an American-Asian lead the film went into production. The film itself is very charming and sweet and has gone to become massively popular amongst female audiences both young and old. Actress Lana Condor also can be credited for a fantastic performance in a role made just for her. 20. On Body and Soul – Oscar NominatedDirector: Ildikó Enyedi

The film was nominated for Best Foreign Language Film this year and it's easy to see why. This was the comeback film for director Ildikó Enyedi who hadn't directed a film in over 18 years before its release. She has crafted a visual beauty with sincerity in its approach to lonely individuals finding love one in each other albeit through mystical means and with a great performance from the beautiful Alexandra Borbély the film tugs on the feel factor but leaves you feeling satisfied in the end. 19. 13th – Oscar-nominatedDirector: Ava DuVernay
Filmmaker Ava DuVernay explores the history of racial inequality in the United States, focusing on the fact that the nation's prisons are disproportionately filled with African-Americans. The documentary delves into the racial inequality of America, from Post Slavery through the Jim Crow laws and Segregation all the way into the modern-day. "13th" isn't afraid to pull its punches with the amount of history it covers in such a short space of time it's incredible the amount fitted into the documentary within 100 minutes, the fact it feels almost pocket-sized just goes to show the scale of the issue it presents, it would be of no surprise to anyone if they had of made a 4 hour documentary instead they still would have only scratched the surface.10 18. Outlaw KingDirector: David Mackenzie
King of Scots Robert de Bruce flees Scotland after an English ambush destroys his forces. Upon his return to his country, what remains of his forces take a final stand against the tyrannical English king. Chris Pine and the outset deliver a fantastic performance in this historical-action drama. Taking inspiration from the events of real history, the gritty and somewhat gruesome film doesn't fail to impress. If you are expecting something akin to Braveheart then you may well be surprised. Instead of Kilts, the film chooses to deliver a historically accurate look at the Scottish rebellion. 17. Invader Zim: Enter the FlorpusDirectors: Young Kyun Park, Jhonen Vasquez, and Hong-Seung Yoon
It's been well over a decade since Invader Zim was last seen on our screens. Thanks to Netflix everyone's favorite would-be conqueror has returned to take over planet earth! Fun and overwhelmingly entertaining, critics have loved it, we've loved and so will you and the family. 16. The Wandering EarthDirector: Frant Gwo |
| ‘Homecoming’ Review: Beyonce’s Netflix Documentary Raises The Bar For Concert Films - Deadline Posted: 17 Apr 2019 12:00 AM PDT During Beyonce's performance at last year's Coachella, she brought a company of over 200 marching band members, dancers, and background singers on a massive stage to put on a full two-hour concert. The popular festival is used to seeing flower crowns and hipster coffee shop headliners of the acoustic or EDM persuasion, but Beyonce did not want to give you that. She wanted to flip Coachella on its head and give you the unexpected. She wanted to serve you a show that only Beyonce can put on — and while she was at it, she decided to make a documentary about it called Homecoming and release a year later to remind you that the festival will never see a performance like this again. Ever.
 Officially titled, Homecoming: A Film By Beyonce, the concert documentary dropped at midnight on Tuesday and the Beyhive was wildly buzzing beforehand as they waited with bated breath counting down the seconds until it hit the streaming platform. The release of the documentary written, directed and executive produced by Beyonce did not come without a surprise. She also unleashed a Homecoming live album which put the Beyhive into even more of a frenzy. Related StoryAlexandra Shipp Joins Andrew Garfield In 'tick, tick...BOOM!'; Vanessa Hudgens & Robin de Jesus Also Cast In Netflix AdaptationWatching Homecoming is like watching the Coachella performance from last year all over again, but with an incredible amount of depth. The documentary felt like the end of this gorgeous journey she was taking us on that arguably began with her HBO special Life is But a Dream which was released in 2016. Since then, she has not only grown as a musician but as a mother and wife. All of which has fueled her artistry — and it is certainly reflected in Homecoming. Homecoming goes beyond what we saw on the stage at Coachella last year. As the first black woman to ever headline Coachella (as Bey says, "Ain't that 'bout a bitch?"), Beyonce wanted to show us that this was more than just a two-hour concert. She wanted to give us an experience that would leave an impact and resonate for decades. Cutting from concert footage to candid personal video (we got to see the twins!) to Blue Ivy taking charge during a dance rehearsal to educating audiences about HBCUs to her rendition of Frankie Beverly and Maze's "Before I Let Go", Homecoming was an experience that celebrated black culture and she generously shared that with all of us. She uplifted the black community and in turn, it united all of us.
 The performance paid homage to America's historically black colleges and universities with dance and music that is very specific to the culture. Woven in and out of the film were profound quotes from HBCU alums Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, activist Marian Wright Edelman, and scholar W.E.B. Du Bois as well as cultural luminaries such as Nina Simone, Maya Angelou, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and Audre Lorde. At times, we knew that this was a love letter to the black culture and was a way for her to tell her brothers and sisters, "I see you" — specifically when she sang the black national anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing." Ultimately, through her vast catalog of music, all was an enriching lesson in black culture and we listened intently because when Beyonce talks, we listen. Homecoming is the final movement to an opus and it shows us the blood, sweat and tears Beyonce put into her Coachella performance as well as this documentary. They rehearsed for eight months on three soundstages to give us this brilliant piece of work that blended all phases of Bey together — and that included an appearance from her husband Jay Z on a performance of "Deja Vu", a dance break with her sister Solange and, of course, her Destiny's Child besties Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams (they gave us a harmoniously on-point performance of "Say My Name" that I'm still gushing over). After spending another year editing the film, she decided to time the release a year later — right around the same time Coachella was happening. When she performed at Coachella she knew exactly what she was doing — she was giving us a package deal. It was a part of her masterplan. She knew damn well that Homecoming was going to be a feature film and that why she made it as epic and precise as she did. The documentary is a testimony to all of her hard work and thoughtfulness as an artist and a savvy businesswoman.
 The transition and editing between the "pink" and "yellow' performances from the two nights she performed at Coachella are seamlessly showcased in Homecoming, making it one gorgeous, monolithic piece of Beyonce-branded art that is personal, joyous, soulful, celebratory and musically entertaining. Even though the film as a whole could have shaved off about 15-20 minutes, we don't mind because, well, it's Beyonce. And you can never get enough Beyonce.
 One thing that stands out about me about Homecoming was that Beyonce made sure that she gave love to all the people involved: her dancers, her band, the people behind the scenes, Jay Z, her kids, her family — everyone. This wasn't just about her. She wanted each "character" on stage to shine which is in line with her wanting to do this concert to make the unseen feel seen. She wanted to empower marginalized communities and wanted to celebrate differences a feat that not many artists can pull off without seeming blatant. Only Beyonce can demand your attention with a fierce mug and southern swag one moment and then disarm you with a warm smile. She welcomes you into her world but makes sure you pay attention and put respect on her name. In 2013, she released Life is But a Dream then gave us her flawless self-titled visual album followed by a serving of Lemonade that had us all getting into formation. Homecoming is yet another chapter that paves a way for a new artistic phase for her. With Homecoming, Beyonce has proven once again that she is a cultural icon and knows what we want before we want it. Whether it is releasing a surprise album in the middle of the night, giving us a full artistically personal visual album experience that leaves us breathless or singing "Get Me Bodied" and dancing with a full marching band, Bey will continue to surprise and slay us with her prowess.  |
