Being a big fan of the world of cinema and especially of movies on Netflix, I have always been interested in new movies that appear on this popular platform every day. Unfortunately, March brings sad news as several noteworthy movies will depart for good. Hence, it is the best time to watch them and enjoy them to the fullest. Grab that Netflix gift card code and subscribe right away to catch them before they’re gone.
Carol (2015) – Leaving on March 19
Set in 1950s New York City, Carol is a gripping romantic historical drama that uncovers all layers of the notorious affair. The plot revolves around the relationship of a young aspiring photographer, Therese Belivet, performed by Rooney Mara, and Carol Aird, an older lady with a difficult relationship with her husband, who has offered her a divorce. Cate Blanchett plays the role of Therese’s lover, who leads them all the way. In the broader context, thus, the picture explores the conditions of living of the times and the associated limitations.
The Suicide Squad (2021) – Leaving on March 31
What would happen if someone were to recruit some of the world’s most dangerous villains? Apparently, they can save Corto Maltese. Under the command of Amanda Waller, they navigate through guerrilla warfare and dark secrets. Their objective: destroy a Nazi-era laboratory and its monstrous project. Enjoy gruesome deaths, action-packed scenes, great humor, and dynamic relationships in this James Gunn masterpiece.
Shazam! (2019) – Leaving on March 31
If the violent and gruesome nature of The Suicide Squad ain’t for you, then I recommend visiting another DCEU film in Shazam! It features a family-friendly theme as 14-year-old Billy Batson runs into a weak and aging wizard and bestows the power of 6 gods upon him, all by screaming the word “Shazam!” Join Billy and his foster brother Freddy as they discover what powers “Shazam!” has through different power tests and posting various clips on the internet.
Love and Monsters (2020) – Leaving on March 9
Watch how high school sweethearts Joel and Aimee’s love story gets ruined when monsters infest the world. Their post-apocalyptic love continues over the radio until Joel decides to finally leave his colony in an attempt to reunite with his one true love. With nothing but a loyal dog and a couple of weapons, Joel faces the world now inhabited by giant creatures all on a quest for love. While Love and Monsters isn’t the best movie on Netflix, it will still provide a feel-good watching experience that can help you find a new perspective on life and love.
Get On Up (2014) – Leaving on March 15
Get on up and out of your seat as the movie dives into the rhythm and soul of the iconic James Brown’s life. Discover how the funk music progenitor came to be and how his journey from poverty to a legendary singer came to be. Armed with an insanely talented cast, from lead Chadwick Boseman to supporters like Viola Davis. Get ready to funk as the Godfather of Soul faces racism and personal turmoil in this inspiring and enjoyable movie.
Wonder Woman (2017) – Leaving on March 31
Are you up for another DCEU movie? Maybe it’s better to do a weekend binge of DC films before they’re forever locked in the prison of an HBO Max subscription. Wonder Woman may not have one of the best stories in the DCEU, but it still provides excellent action scenes with a blend of a heartfelt love story and shows how sacrifices need to be made for the good of all. Join the Amazon warrior princess as she uncovers a new purpose in life, protecting humans from the horrors of war and conflict.
John Wick (2014) – Leaving on March 30
If you’re craving an action movie, only a handful come close to John Wick. Each movie is filled with meticulously crafted fight scenes and various combat levels that’ll surely scratch that itch. Guns? Check. Knives? Check. Fists? Check. Pencils??? Check. No matter what weapon you’re looking for, Mr. Wick will find a way to kill his enemies with it. The entire John Wick series is leaving on March 30, so I suggest aiming that remote at the screen and firing up those movies before Baba Yaga comes for you.
Conclusion
Netflix always refreshes its library of movies and shows. Whether it’s because contracts are ending or new deals are not pushing through, there’s really nothing we can do as viewers. It’s just the way things go; movies come and go, and only the Netflix originals are here to stay. So, I recommend getting comfortable, purchasing Netflix codes from a gift card store, cooking a bag of popcorn or two, and watching these 7 films before they’re gone.
