The Best TV Shows And Movies Leaving Netflix In May 2021
As the month of April ends, so, too, do your chances to watch several movies on Netflix! You canneverwatch these movies again! Unless they return, or go to another streaming service, or you have them on Blu-ray. Anyway, it’s (almost) time for last call on the following TV shows and movies leaving Netflix in May 2021.
War Horseis a great film that deserves more attention. That feels weird to say aboutanySteven Spielbergmovie – but it’s true. It seems like Spielberg’s World War I epic about a very good horse just trying to survive doesn’t get nearly the love it should. It’s big, sweeping, dramatic stuff, full of powerful emotion and old school melodrama.
Sherlock: Series 1-4
Look,Sherlockkind of went off the rails in its final (?) two seasons, but I still think the first two – particularly the first – are a lot of fun. Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman make a great team, and updating the Holmes tales to the modern era works quite well. That said, it probably would’ve been best if this show had ended sooner than it did.
OMG, it’s Brahms!The Boy! And he’s leaving Netflix! This silly but enjoyable horror flick is about a creepy doll that may or may not be alive. Set in a big gothic mansion and full of twists that are both funanddumb,The Boyis a lot better than you might think. The same can’t be said forBrahms: The Boy II, though.
The Blair Witch Project
The originalBlair Witch Projectstill holds up. It’s an incredibly creepy, rather brilliant found footage film that knows exactly how to build up scares without showing you really anything. Very few horror movies can do what this movie does.
Brokeback Mountain
WhenBrokeback Mountainarrived in 2005, it arrived on a wave of tasteless “gay cowboy movie” jokes. It then proceeded to lose Best Picture toCrash, of all damn things. But none of that takes away from how magnificent the movie is. Quiet, contemplative, and featuring great performances – particularly fromHeath Ledger– this is a damn great movie, and you should watch it before it leaves Netflix.
