This movie starring the endlessly charming Sanaa Lathan is based on the novel of the same name. It follows Violet, a woman who realizes she hasn’t been really living her life until she is freed from her hair. It's a sweet, significant movie that like HBO's "Insecure" authentically represents the perspective of a black woman in a way that is both funny and dramatic.

This thrilling, unsettling, and incredibly well-shot horror film works so well because it is genuinely scary as it touches on themes, such as society's expectations for women, that are still relevant today.

"Rogue One" has a depressing ending, but it's a thrilling adventure that proved how many stories can be told in the "Star Wars" universe. By telling a story with zero Skywalkers or Solos in the mix, it showed how scary the Empire is by highlighting its ominous effect on people in the galaxy who are not related to Darth Vader. Seeing how much damage the Empire has done makes watching the original movies even better.

Netflix description: He's a bear without a home. They're a family without a bear. It seems like a perfect match, till an evil schemer enters.

Paddington bear wears an old red hat, a blue coat, carries a battered briefcase, and loves marmalade. It is an absolutely delightful, short movie that you won't regret watching, no matter how old you are. It's like a Wes Anderson movie, minus Bill Murray. You will honestly probably want to "Paddington" again right after it's over. It's that good. As an added bonus to the cuteness and exquisite set design, it features Nicole Kidman as the villain, an evil taxidermist.

Netflix description: In this third Jason Bourne film, the trained assassin travels the globe on a quest to reconstruct his past — and thus clear the way for his future.

Smart and exciting even though it is the third movie in the action franchise, "The Bourne Ultimatum" has aged well. It's definitely the best Bourne movie, despite the somewhat annoying handheld camera work from Paul Greengrass, but it really works for this particular story.
