Netflix quietly adds 13 very big movies to its library

Rory Cashin

One of the new Netflix additions is one of the very best movies of the 21st century so far.

Netflix has just added five new episodes of Black Mirror to its library, but if you’re looking for something else, these 13 movies have also just joined the streaming service:

ALIENS IN THE ATTIC

A young Austin Butler stars in this family friendly comedy about a group of kids who discover aliens living in the attic of their holiday home.

BECKY

Kevin James, usually known for his “comedic” turn in Adam Sandler movies, is actually pretty decent in this home invasion thriller.

BRONSON

The movie that put Tom Hardy on the map for most people, playing a convicted felon who develops an alter ego while spending 30 years in solitary confinement.

THE BIG SHORT

Brad Pitt, Christian Bale, Steve Carrell and Ryan Gosling headline this retelling of how financial experts predicted the impending, mid-00s financial collapse. Much more entertaining than that description makes it sound like.

CAPTAIN PHILLIPS

Tom Hanks really should’ve won the Oscar for his portrayal of the real-life captain of a ship that was overtaken by Somali pirates in 2009.

EXTRACTION 2

A Netflix exclusive, and literally some of the very best action you’ll see.

THE GIRL NEXT DOOR

The story of a teenage boy (Emile Hirsch) who discovers his new neighbour (Elisha Cuthbert) is actually a famous porn star. We chatted to Cuthbert about the love this movie has with fans all these years later, you can check out that chat right here:

THE INSPECTION

Based on a true story, a young gay black man (Jeremy Pope) enlists in the army in the hopes of finding approval from his homophobic mother.

PAW PATROL: THE MOVIE

If you’ve got kids of a certain age, then you probably are well aware of Paw Patrol. This is their movie. Kim Kardashian does one of the voices. So… there’s that.

SOURCE CODE

Jake Gyllenhaal heads up this twisty sci-fi action thriller. It is a bit like Groundhog Day… but with more explosions.

THERE WILL BE BLOOD

Daniel Day Lewis stars in one of the best movies of the 21st century, as an oil baron so focused on success that it consumes every aspect of his life.

THE UNBEARABLE WEIGHT OF MASSIVE TALENT

One of the funniest movies of the last few years.

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS

Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher star in this rom-com about two people who hate each other, but drunkenly get married while in Vegas.
