Best New Movies and Series on Netflix For Today

Love at First Sight (2023)

Rating: PG-13
Language: English
Genre: Drama, Romance
Director: Vanessa Caswill
Cast: Haley Lu Richardson, Ben Hardy, Dexter Fletcher
Writer: Katie Lovejoy, Jennifer E. Smith
Runtime: 90 min / 1h 30m

Netflix’s big new movie for the week is an adaptation of the excellent Jennifer E. Smith novel, The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight.

It tells the story of two teens who are London bound, and the pair strike up an unlikely relationship.

We published our review for the movie in the morning, where we dubbed it as a return to form for the struggling rom-com genre on Netflix:

“Full of life, love, & charm, Love at First Sight blends great chemistry with a warm, relatable, & simple romance. Bring the tissues.”

Inside the World’s Toughest Prisons (Season 7)

Number of episodes: 4
Rating: TV-MA
Language: English
Genre: Documentary
Cast: Raphael Rowe
Runtime: 47 min

One of Netflix’s longest-running docu-series on Netflix returned this week for another batch of four episodes. Hosted by former in-mate Raphael Rowe, you’ll be visiting some of the world’s toughest prisons, and this season has some remarkable locations and incredible stories.

Band of Brothers (Limited Series)

Rating: TV-MA
Language: English
Genre: Drama, History, War
Cast: Scott Grimes, Damian Lewis, Ron Livingston
Runtime: 594 min / 9h 54m

Two of HBO’s greatest shows of all time just dropped on Netflix US (and a slew of other Netflix regions) today for the first time. We’re referring to Band of Brothers and The Pacific, both produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.

While we should probably have featured both titles in this “best of” segment, the truth is if we had to pick one to watch, it’d undoubtedly be Band of Brothers.

Over the course of 10 hours, you’ll follow Easy Company through their horrific campaign throughout Europe at the height of World War II.
