Best Films on Netflix

Netflix is the world's largest streaming platform and, for many, the first choice for an evening watch. Its strength is a vast, constantly refreshed catalogue and original productions (Netflix Originals), which increasingly win the most important film awards. If you're after something for tonight, it's usually the best starting point.

What sets Netflix apart?

Above all, scale and variety — from major blockbusters to niche productions from around the world. Netflix invests heavily in auteur cinema and series, and its algorithm is good at suggesting titles. A downside is catalogue rotation: films come and go, so it's worth watching what interests you while it's available. Our list below shows titles currently popular on this platform.
