Top 10 Interesting Movies on Netflix

Have you ever noticed how many great movies Netflix has? They are not just entertaining; they have a lot to teach us about life and different aspects of it. Many Netflix films dive into the challenges and adventures of difficulties and good moments. From laugh-out-loud comedies to touching dramas, each movie offers insights into a unique scenario, hard truths about finding purpose, and the importance of an open mind. 

That said, here is a sneak peek into the top ten films on Netflix.

1.    The Half of It

In this movie, Ellie, a shy Chinese-American teen, discovers her talent for writing love letters for her classmates. At first, she is content to live vicariously through the relationships she helps create, but with the encouragement of her friend Paul, Ellie finds the courage to pursue her own crush, Aster. In the process, Ellie learns that she should not sacrifice her own happiness for others. She finds her voice by being true to herself, embracing her cultural identity, and sharing her gift for writing.

2.    The Kissing Booth

Elle decides to take a chance by running a kissing booth at the school fundraiser, even though it means locking lips with guys her best friend has warned her to avoid. At first, the experience is awkward and embarrassing, but then she kisses the mysterious bad boy Noah and sparks fly.

3.    Pitch Perfect

The 2012 musical comedy Pitch Perfect follows the Barden Bellas, an all-female acapella group, as they compete against their male rivals. At first, the Bellas try to emulate the popular all-male group, the Treblemakers. But Beca joins the Bellas and helps the group discover their unique sound and style.

College is a time for self-discovery, and Pitch Perfect reminds us not to lose our voice trying to please others or fit in. When you embrace what makes you unique, you create a beautiful harmony.

4.    The Perfect Date

In the movie, Brooks Rattigan creates an app to help teenagers win over their crushes. However, he soon learns that relationships built on deception never last. To get the girl of his dreams, Brooks pretends to share her quirky interests and hobbies. However, maintaining the charade turns out exhausting and unsustainable.

The movie teaches that you should never change your personality or interests to please someone else. Be unapologetically yourself, pursue your authentic passions, and speak up about causes you support. 

5.    The Social Dilemma

Everything you put on social media becomes part of your digital footprint and data profile. Tech companies track your likes, comments, and shares to determine your interests and behaviors. They then use this information to keep you engaged for as long as possible so they can collect more of your data and sell it to advertisers.

Social media can be used to stay connected, but it also has real consequences, as portrayed in “The Social Dilemma”. So, take control of your online privacy and share selectively.

6.    Do Revenge

The latest Netflix movie “Do Revenge” teaches us an important lesson: revenge often backfires. In this dark comedy, two teenage girls, Drea and Eleanor, team up to get revenge on the bullies that wronged them. Drea wants payback on her ex-boyfriend after a nude photo of her spreads around the school. Eleanor avenges the mean girls who bullied her for being a lesbian. Though their scheming is entertaining, their vengeful acts end up harming innocent people, including themselves.

7.    Feel the Beat

“Feel the Beat” is about following your passion, even if it is not the conventional path. The main character, April, wants to become a dancer, but her parents want her to focus on her studies to get into a good college. Through the movie, April learns that she does not have to choose one or the other; she can work hard at school and pursue her love of dance.

The lesson here is that you do not have to limit yourself to a single area of study or career path to be successful. Success looks different for each person, so find what motivates and inspires you. But above all, go for a good and safe college that prioritizes students’ safety and the quality of education.

8.    Work It

The movie follows two best friends who form a dance crew to compete in a major competition after realizing their dream of dancing on stage. The friends put in hours of practice to perfect their routines and skills to achieve their goals. They face rejection and setbacks that threaten to derail their plans, but their determination and perseverance ultimately lead to success. 

Chasing your dreams requires continuous hard work and determination, as seen in this movie. While the road may not always be easy, hard work and perseverance pay off.

9.    To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before

“To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” is about Lara Jean, a high school junior who writes secret love letters to her crush to get over them. Unfortunately, her little sister mails the letters behind her back, and she has to face her feelings for her sister’s ex-boyfriend Josh and the popular boy Peter.

This lighthearted teen rom-com teaches us that it is okay to be vulnerable and put yourself out there for new relationships. Even though it may be scary, taking risks can be rewarding sometimes.

10. Step Sisters

This comedy follows a black sorority girl forced to team up with a white sorority girl to win a step-dancing competition. Through their journey, they learn that despite their differences, they have more in common than they initially thought. This movie teaches us that college is a place where we can find unexpected friendships that transcend stereotypes.
