For fans of:Chris Hemsworth in glasses| Is it good?: It's smarter than Netflix dystopian thrillers usually are

This dystopian sci-fi thriller starsChris Hemsworthas the warden of an experimental prison where mysterious pharmaceuticals are tested out on the prisoners, who include Jeff (Miles Teller) and Lizzy (Jurnee Smollett). Jeff and Lizzy form a special bond, which leads to them getting inflicted with some mind-bending, darkly funny psychological thrills.(Yesterday's rank: 1)

For fans of:Stephen King, ragtag groups of kids, clowns| Is it good?: It's so great

This adaptation of the first half of Stephen King's classic novel follows a group of dorky kids who spend their summer being terrorized by the titular It, a shape-shifting monster who emerges from the sewer to kill children. If you watched Stranger Things and wanted more of that general thing, this is the perfect movie to watch next.(Yesterday's rank: 2)

For fans of: Adam Sandler: Serious Actor| Is it good?: It is!

InUncut Gems, the game of basketball is essentially second billed, right behindAdam Sandlerhimself. Sandler's famously ahuge basketball fan in general, so it was only a matter of time before he made a movie about it. Another reminder to the world that Sandler is a solid dramatic actor,Hustleis a sports drama that stars Sandler as a washed-up scout who makes it his mission to recruit a talented street ball player from Spain into the NBA.(Yesterday's rank: 3)

For fans of:Chickens, bunnies, other cute animals| Is it good?: Not particularly

This Belgian-made animated family movie is about a half-chicken, half-hare who longs to fit in. It's based on a series of graphic novels, the last of which came out in 2009. So this movie has been in the works for a long time. Watch it and decide for yourself if it was worth the wait. (Yesterday's rank: 4)

What to Watch from Netflix's Overall Top 10

For fans of:Late-period Travolta, crime stories from the Cocaine '80s| Is it good?: Nope!

This movie is based on the life of Donald Aronow, a speed boat manufacturer who had a sideline in drug smuggling. It has a score of 19 (out of 100) on Metacritic. You have to give John Travolta credit, though. He doesn't do geezer teasers where he shows up for 10 minutes and cashes a paycheck. He really commits to these terrible movies.(Yesterday's rank: 5)

For fans of:Jenny from the block | Is it good?: Did J. Lo deserve an Oscar for Hustlers? (Yes)

Documentarian Amanda Micheli profiles the little-known actress and singer Jennifer Lopez as she prepares a performance for a little-known event called "The Super Bowl." (Yesterday's rank: 6)

For fans of: Andrew Garfield, Spider-Man, the year 2012| Is it good?: It's great and worthy of its cultural resurgence

Andrew Garfield was our shortest lived, and arguably most unsung, Spider-Man, which is why it was so much fun to see him stop reading if you're sensitive about getting spoiled for a movie that's been out for months reprise the role in Spider-Man: No Way Home. The Amazing Spider-Man's only crime is that it's a pretty formulaic Spidey origin story with a lame villain, but Garfield and Emma Stone are both so good in it that it doesn't even matter.(Yesterday's rank: 8)

For fans of:International crime dramas| Is it good?: It's OK

Various Johannesburg residents who wouldn't normally mix come together due to crime one night. The movie itself is not great, but it's an interesting look at a corner of Joburg's underworld Americans don't usually get to see.(Yesterday's rank: 7)

For fans of:Tom Cruise risking his life for stunts| Is it good?: Is the Burj Khalifa the tallest building in the world?

Mission: Impossible 4aka Ghost Protocol aka the funniest title for an action movie ever aka the one where Tom Cruise climbs the exterior of the world's tallest building aka the one where they attempted to pass the baton toJeremy Renner but there's no replacing Tom Cruise.(Yesterday's rank: 9)

For fans of: Young Leo, memes about how Jack could have fit on that door | Is it good?: It's as amazing now as it was then

James Cameron's epic tale of doomed love aboard the world's largest ocean liner is Hollywood filmmaking at its finest. It made all the money and won all the awards and it deserved to, because it's perfect. (Yesterday's rank: 10)
