The 50 best movies on Netflix right now (March 2024)
Jules Willcox as Jessica in Alone.

It's an unusual week for movies on Netflix. Last week's major addition, Damsel, is still topping the list of the most popular movies on Netflix, but it's been joined in the top five by two unheralded thrillers: Your Lucky Day and Alone. They're also flanked by The Super Mario Bros. Movie, which is parked at No. 3 and still incredibly popular over four months after making its Netflix debut.

Lindsay Lohan is also starring in a new rom-com, Irish Wish, but the jury's not in on that one yet. So for now, it's not on our list of the best movies on Netflix right now. Keep checking back every Friday morning as we update your options. That way, you'll always have something new to watch for the weekend.
