Netflix Top Movies - Week of 4/18



1. Synchronic

Currently, Synchronic is ranked #1 in Netflix's "Top 10 Movies in the U.S. Today." Synchronic is directed by Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead. Famous cast members include: Anthony Mackie, Jamie Dornan, Katie Aselton. Synchronic is a crime sci-fi thriller. Steve and Dennis are life long best friends who also happen to be paramedics together in New Orleans. The two are called to a series of bizarre deaths. After investigation it is found that these bizarre deaths are linked to a mysterious new drug. The drug alters one's reality. Steve has just been diagnosed with cancer and only has 6 weeks to live. Steve buys all the new drug due to it's time travel ability. When Steve takes the drug it leads to the disappearance of Dennis' daughter.


If you are into sci-fi or time travel movies this is definitely a movie for you! Synchronic was a really good movie! I highly recommend you take time and watch this movie. I rate this movie as a definite "watch."

2. Thunder Force

As of now, Thunder Force, is sitting at #2 under Netflix's "Top 10 Movies in the U.S. Today." Thunder Force was directed by Ben Falcone. Starring cast members include: Melissa McCarthy,

Octavia Spencer, and Jason Bateman. Thunder Forces is an action comedy film. Two childhood best friends are reunited to fight crime in their community. They invent a formula that gives ordinary citizens special powers.

I am torn on recommending this. It has one of my favorite actors Melissa McCarthy, but I just wanted this movie to be better than what it was. It was kind of cheesy and cringe. There were some funny aspects to it though. I am still going to recommend this as a "watch."

3. Why Did You Kill Me?

Right now, Why Did You Kill Me, is at #3 in Netflix's "Top 10 Movies in the U.S. Today." Why Did You Kill Me was directed by Fredrick Munk. This film stars Belinda Lane. Why Did You Kill Me is a crime documentary. This film follow Belinda Lane as she uses social media to track down the murders who killer her daughter Crystal Theobald


This documentary is mediocre. I might be slightly bias as documentaries aren't my favorite genre. This film was just really slow. Therefore I recommend this movie as a "pass"
