Netflix has so many movies in its selection that it's hard to choose just one. Thankfully, we're here to make that easier.
Every week, we look through what's available on the streaming service and recommend seven movies you can watch over the weekend. Some of our selections recently came to Netflix, like the excellent original documentary, "Feminists: What Were they Thinking?" And some of the movies have been available for a while. You just might have missed them because Netflix's algorithm didn't feature them on your account.
These are the movies you should add to your queue for the weekend.
Here are seven movies on Netflix you should watch (along with their scores from Rotten Tomatoes).
Note: Not all of these films are available in countries outside the United States. Apologies!
"Feminists: What Were They Thinking?" (2018) — a Netflix Original
Description: Revisiting 1970s photos of women that captured a feminist awakening, this film explores those women's lives and examines the continued need for change.
Critic Score: N/A
Audience Score: 40%
This documentary doesn't get as thorough as it could, but it's still a necessary dissection of second wave feminism that features prominent figures of the essential movement including Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin.
"Thor: Ragnarok" (2017)
Netflix description: To save Asgard from a bloodthirsty goddess of death, the mighty Thor will have to battle his way to freedom and find a way back home.
Critic score: 92%
Audience score: 87%
"Thor: Ragnarok" is a masterpiece of action and comedy filmmaking. It offers a fresh and absurd take on an overdone and often dull genre, and completely reinvented the Thor character in a way no one thought possible. It was one of the highlights of 2017, and it's one of the best, most original films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
"The Green Mile" (1999)
Description: When a prison guard discovers that a death row inmate possesses mysterious powers, he tries desperately to prevent the condemned man's execution.
Critic Score: 80%
Audience Score: 94%
"The Green Mile" is a little too long, but the captivating performances from Tom Hanks and Michael Clarke Duncan make it worth it. It is without a doubt one of the best Stephen King adaptations ever made.
