The 8 best movies coming to Netflix in May

This is one of those rom-coms that gets better with age. Steve Carell plays a recently single guy who needs help to get back on the market and befriends a well-skilled Ryan Gosling.

But then Gosling meets his match when he hits it off with Emma Stone's character.

If you're looking for a feel-good movie, this is it.

Clint Eastwood became the tough-guy actor of the 1970s thanks to his stint as San Francisco homicide detective "Dirty" Harry Callahan.

From spewing classic one-liners like "Do you feel lucky, punk?" to wielding a now-iconic revolver, Eastwood's performance in this movie helped solidify him as a massive Hollywood star.

This instant classic follows a man's journey through his life as he finds himself involved in some of the most landmark historic events in American history.

The film won six Academy Awards, including best picture, best director for Robert Zemeckis, and best actor for Tom Hanks.

The popular MTV show began making movies highlighting the crew's wild antics in 2002.

Since then, Johnny Knoxville and the gang have also given us sequels and outtakes. So, not only can you watch the first "Jackass" movie on Netflix, but you can also check out the outtakes for parts two, three, and the recent fourth release. ("Jackass 4.5" will hit the streamer on May 20.)

The Hughes Brothers' classic gives an unflinching look at 1990s south-central Los Angeles.

Before "Rambo" turned into a money-making franchise showcasing Sylvester Stallone doing outlandish battles as a one-man killing machine, the original movie was (and still is) a sobering examination of how Vietnam Veterans were treated when they returned home.

And it wasn't pretty.

Go back and watch the first movie — it's really powerful and grounded.

Still one of the best rom-coms ever made, Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan are perfectly cast as two people who can't stand each other upon first meeting, but who go on to become great friends, and eventually soul mates.

In this touching and entertaining rom-com, Ryan stars alongside Hanks to tell a story that makes us question how we ever got anything done back in the days of dial-up internet.
