Tired of looking for good movies to watch on Netflix, Amazon Prime or other streaming services? Every week I recommend a handful of the best movies on Netflix, Amazon, HBO etc. so my subscribers never run out of good movies to watch on streaming. Spending 10 minutes watching one of my videos could save you hours of searching, hours that you could otherwise spend watching good movies on streaming that you otherwise might not have ever watched or even known about.

Thanks for watching!

  • @DARTHNEWS
    Nightcrawler is one of the most underrated and overlooked movies of the 2010s. Completely snubbed at the Oscar's and easily Gyllenhaals best performance along with Riz Ahmed
  • @MetalTrenches
    Nightcrawler may just be Gyllenhal’s best work and one of the most chilling performances I’ve seen the last decade.
  • @hellstorm3233
    Gary Oldman killed it in True Romance as well. Such a great actor seeing him in The Professional always gives me flashbacks to true romance
  • @JH-ks9oi
    Gary Oldman in Mank is by far the movie that blew me away, what a performance and story I didn't really know much about, great flick highly recommend
  • Darron, thank you for the fantastic lists that you do. The Picks are always good and your description is spot on, I work hard and love to watch a good movie a few nights a week (if possible) for my downtime. There is nothing worse then wasting my time with a movie that is just that, a waste of time. You never guide us wrong and I am so grateful for that! 👍
  • @lold6130
    Fincher is one of my favorite directors too. I think his 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' is very underrated.
  • @LuvJT101
    I agree about Dolomite. It’s surprisingly good, and has so much heart and passion. The actors clearly loved working on that movie and it shows in their performances.
  • @boywonders
    Love your channel, Darren. You help me a lot with figuring out what to watch each month!
  • Michael Clayton! Enough say!!! Everyone gives amazing performances and Clooney plays it with a soft nuance performance that totally is edge of your seat and when he’s in the screen you’re totally glued to his every word!!! Highly underrated!
  • @theubercaste
    Finally, Mank makes the list. If you haven’t seen MANK, do. I LOVED everything about this movie. I watched Mank; then I watched Citizen Kane; then RKO 281. All are so interesting and well worth the marathon.
  • Great list 👏👏 Saw all these - stuck around to get your take on “Dolemite…” agreed, really good film - waaaaaay exceeded my expectations - thanks for sharing!
  • Hey, Darren. Great video, as always. Earlier in your presentation, you mentioned Rebecca Hall (who I'm a big fan of), and you brought to mind a movie I just watched called Resurrection. Awesome flick. I like dark, mind-bending movies to begin with, so this was right up my alley. I was nevertheless impressed with how layered and profound the real message of the film was (or at least my interpretation of the message). In any case, I was completely enthralled throughout the film, and it definitely had a unique and gripping storyline. This list you presented, by the way, prompts me to rewatch Apocalypse Now. I could never get into it on past viewings, but there has to be something more to the movie that I must have missed, given its acclaim. Thanks for the suggestions, brother. Be well.
  • Another great video Darren! Love watching your reviews. Still watching from West Virginia!❤️👍
  • @roel.vinckens
    Absolutely stunning list of cinematography... Thank you Darren !
  • @kyurkus1
    Darron, I love your recommendations, you should do a list of your favorite documentaries on streaming services.
  • OK, you got me with this one. Great list. Great summaries. There are 4 that I haven't yet seen and I intend to watch 3 of them right away. Thanks.
  • Darren thank you again for these dope recommendations! You never fail us ❤️🙏🏼
  • Hell of a list, Darren! You've become my go-to guy for picks and so far have delivered on all. I've added a few from here. Can't wait to see Veteran.
