Looking for the best movie that you can stream on Netflix can be a difficult task. This is because there are hundreds, if not thouands available at any one time on the platform. Choosing is the most difficult thing, especially if you’re not the only one in the house. Here, we pick a few to whet your whistle during this latest lockdown and hopefully please the whole household.
Uncut Gems
This cracking film from the Safdie brothers Benny and Josh was actually on of our favourite films from last year. Adam Sandler leads the cast of the film which revolves around a compulsive gambler (played by Adam Sandler) who is always looking for the next big bet, gambling thousands of dollars at any one time over the phone rather than resorting to the more modern way of betting, like on online slots. He, or course, gets himself into more and more trouble as his personal life slowly starts to spiral out of control. The film was a massive hit all over the world and earned Sandler some of the best reviews of his career
The American President
The American President is actually written by Aaron Sorkin directed by Rob Reiner. The film stars the likes of Michael Douglas, Martin Sheen, and Annette Bening with the story revolving around a widowed president who begins a relationship with Bening’s character, a lobbyist named Sydney Ellen Wade. Michael J. Fox, and Richard Dreyfuss also feature amongst the impressive cast of the movie, and impressive rom-com that will delight most fans of the genre.
Catch Me If You Can
Written by Jeff Nathanson and directed by Steven Spielberg, Catch Me If You Can is a brilliant comedy caper starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hanks, Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen (again), and Amy Adams. Catch Me If You Can is based on a true story and tells the story of Frank Abagnale, a man who didn’t rely on gambling on the best online casinos to bag a fortune – this is set in a time way before then – but instead scored millions of dollars by posing as a pilot, doctor and more . This isn’t the heart of the story, though, but one that truly showcases the talents off involved, including Spielberg at the helm of one of his best.
