Best New Movies and Series on Netflix for April 14th

The Last Kingdom: Seven Kings Must Die (2023)

Rating: TV-MA
Language: English
Genre: Action, Drama, History
Director: Edward Bazalgette
Cast: Alexander Dreymon, Mark Rowley, Arnas Fedaravicius
Writer: Bernard Cornwell, Martha Hillier

Looking to end the remarkable five-season run of The Last Kingdom and cap off Uhtred’s story is the new feature film, Seven Kings Must Die.

Here’s what you can expect:

“In the wake of King Edward’s death, Uhtred of Bebbanburg and his comrades adventure across a fractured kingdom in the hopes of uniting England at last.”

The Guardian ultimately gave the movie a three-star in their review published this morning. They concluded that there’s “a ton of plot packed into this standalone movie derived from the TV series, but the deluge of detail gets steadily more absorbing.”

Florida Man (Limited Series)

Rating: TV-MA
Language: English
Genre: Drama, Crime
Cast: Edgar Ramírez, Abbey Lee, Anthony LaPaglia, Otmara Marrero, Lex Scott Davis, Emory Cohen

Debuting on Netflix yesterday is the limited series Florida Man, and as you’ll see below, it’s made a very lukewarm start on the top 10s, but perhaps it has more to show as we head into the weekend.

Here’s what you can expect from the seven-part crime mystery limited series:

“A disgraced cop in debt is forced to return to his home state of Florida for a shady mission only to get swept up in a wild — and deadly — treasure hunt. A disgraced cop in debt is forced to return to his home state of Florida for a shady mission only to get swept up in a wild — and deadly — treasure hunt.”

Rating: TV-MA
Language: Korean
Genre: Political, Drama
Cast: Kim Hee-ae, Moon So-ri, Ryu Soo-young, Seo Yi-sook, Ok Ja-yeon, Yoon Ji-hye

And finally, if you’re looking for something from abroad, Queenmaker should be for you. If you add that to the fact we’ve got The Diplomat coming up in the near future on Netflix, this is an excellent primer in the political drama space.

Ell and Jin Kyung are the two best-known actors to Western audiences in the series. The former starred in The L Word: Generation Q, and the latter starred in 2015’s Veteran.

The series, consisting of 11 episodes, is about a fixer for a business conglomerate making the jump over to politics.
