Here are what I think are the at least watchable to Best Series and Movies that I watched on Netflix for the Month of June 2025:

* TUDUM (2025) Live Event – Outstanding, this is Netflix’s annual Show where they Hype up and provide Sneak Peeks into their upcoming, originally-produced Series and Movies, usually the ones with the highest Budgets. This is a Must-Watch for me as it gives you an Idea to what to look for and what to expect in the next twelve Months. They’ve changed its Format over the Years, this Year it is only a single, two-hour long Show. Most of the Segments were great, but I admit skipping some Parts of it that I didn’t find interesting enough, and I suggest you do the same also.

I particularly liked the Segments of the upcoming “Knives Out” Movie, “Happy Gilmore 2” Movie, “Stranger Things” Series, “Squid Game” Series, “Frankenstein” Movie and most of the Segments of the “Wednesday” Series. I’m disappointed though that the Teaser for “The Rip” Movie was available only during the Live Broadcast and not the Replay because I only got to watch the Replay. 

Best Series and Movies on Netflix - December 2024

Here are what I think are the at least watchable to Best Series and Movies that I watched on Netflix for the Month of December 2024:

* Mononoke the Movie: Phantom in the Rain (2024) Animated Movie – Good enough to watch, this is a pretty ambitious Suspense/Supernatural Thriller set in Feudal Japan that follows the entry of two Girls into the Emperor’s Harem where they eventually encounter a Supernatural Force hiding a Dark Secret. The Characterizations and Dialogue are pretty good, and the Visuals are beautiful.

However, the unique Visual Style also makes it difficult to follow the Story in some Parts, and the Plot seem just a bit too convoluted at times, with some Plot Holes about the Nature of some of the Characters. I think this Movie was just a bit too ambitious, but unable to deliver a Story that is easy to follow and appreciate. It is good enough to watch, but definitely not a great Movie for me.

Elon Musk’s Goal may not really be just Mars, but also the Immense Wealth of the Asteroid Belt

For a time, some People were complaining on why the Billionaire Elon Musk is exerting so much Resources towards establishing a Human Colony on Mars. They said all those Effort and Money would be better off spent to solve World Hunger, and other Problems of the World, blah-blah-blah. 

Elon himself said that the main Reason for him wanting to go to Mars is to make Human Life truly “Interplanetary”, to help save us from Extinction in Case another Asteroid or other Extinction Level Event (ELE) happens again on Earth. 

Best Series and Movies on Netflix - May 2025

Here are what I think are the at least watchable to Best Series and Movies that I watched on Netflix for the Month of May 2025:

 * John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023) Movie – Outstanding, the usual intense, stylish visually addictive Franchise that many People have grown to love very much, including me. The stunning Cinematography coupled with the Posh Settings is one Thing that set this Movie apart, along with the long and very intense fight Scenes and fascinating World-building. To those unfamiliar with the Franchise, this is about a Hit Man who must now find a Way to gain his Freedom from the Organization that hired him in the first Place. With nice Twists and very interesting new Characters, this might be the last of the John Wick Character himself, but only time will tell if this will indeed by the Case. In the meantime, Spin-Offs from World of John Wick are expected to materialize soon.

Best Series and Movies on Netflix - April 2025

Here are what I think are the at least watchable to Best Series and Movies that I watched on Netflix for the Month of April 2025: 

* Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre (2025) Movie – Outstanding, Netflix starts off April 2025 with a Bang with this outstanding Movie from acclaimed Director Guy Ritchie, about a Private Mercenary Group hired by the Government to track down and retrieve a mysterious Package that was stolen from a Company. This is a Light Comedy-Action-Spy-Thriller set in Contemporary Times. I knew this was going to be a good Movie the Minute Carl Elwes of the “Princess Bride” Movie Fame showed up in the opening Scenes as an important Part of the Team.

The Movie basically had an All-Star Cast with Jason Statham in his old Action Star self doing amazing Fight Sequences; Aubrey Plaza in perhaps at her funniest that I have seen her on Movie or Series; Hugh Grant is always entertaining while Josh Hartnett did great in a Comedic Role. Overall, this is just a very entertaining Movie with a fast pace that almost has everything in it: Great Action and Twists, Funny at Times, with excellent Characters and good Twists. 

* Jules (2023) Movie – Outstanding, this is basically like the 1982 Movie, “ET” the Extra-Terrestiral”, but instead of Kids, but with old People instead of Kids. It is a Science Fiction Light Comedy-Drama about an Alien Spacecraft that crash landed on the Backyard of an old Man played by the excellent Ben Kingsley and the complications that arose from that Situation. The Movie also tackles “Old People” Issues like Loneliness, Alzheimer’s Disease, etc. Pretty interesting Characters with a good touch of Humor and Quirkiness, one of the better Movies at the start of April 2025.

Best Series and Movies on Netflix - March 2025

Here are what I think are the at least watchable to Best Series and Movies that I watched on Netflix for the Month of March 2025: 

* Pantheon (2025) Season Two, Final Season Animated Series – Highly recommended, noticeably not as good as the first Season, but good enough on its own, certainly a fitting Ending to the Series. Like the first Season, the first two Episodes weren’t that good, but it did turn out well after that. Also it did sort of change from just “Science Fiction” to “Science Fantasy” already in the End, I felt that the Creators were sort of just forced to squeeze in all of the Storylines they planned for one or two more Seasons into this one. This is an animated Series that is set in an alternate, contemporary Reality where Humans were finally able to upload their Consciousness into a Computer, and had to deal with the Consequences that eventually arose from it. 

* The Electric State (2025) Movie – Outstanding, this is a Movie set in an alternative Reality in the 1990s where Robots were able to gain Sentience after serving Mankind and ended up battling for their Independence. The Characters were pretty interesting, and Chris Pratt as usual is spot on with his Humor. The Movie starts off a bit slow, but gains a lot of Traction when they started their Journey to go the “Electric State”, a piece of Land where the Robots were eventually relocated and isolated.

My biggest Issue with this Movie though was its Plot on how Humans ended up with such a high Degree of Technological Sophistication using 1990s Technology? But the Plot Twist took care of that, I should have known that the Russo Brothers who directed this almost never misses Important Details in any Movie. Lastly, this is the most “Spielbergy” Film I have seen in Decades, it reminded me a lot of how his Movies work, like with the sort of Childish, High Tech Touch to it. But ironically of course, it wasn’t made by Steven Spielberg.

Best Series and Movies on Netflix - February 2025

Here are what I think are the at least watchable to Best Series and Movies that I watched on Netflix for the Month of February6 2025: 

* Surviving Black Hawk Down (2025) Limited Documentary Series – Outstanding, this is a Documentary about the Infamous “Black Hawk Down” Incident that happened in Mogadishu, Somalia back in 1993 where American Helicopters were shot down, and the Battle that happened afterwards to rescue its Crew and Soldiers. This Limited Series being produced by Ridley Scott, the Director of the now famous and Classic Movie about the same Incident a couple of Decades back. It’s great that they also interviewed the Somalis who got to share to the World also their experiences and Views of what happened, even sharing Pictures and Videos from their Side also. The Incident didn’t feel that long ago, but all the People involved in that Incident are old now, even the Baby that was born in one of the Houses where the American Troops hid in. A great Series, a Must-Watch for me and the first great Series on Netflix for the Month of February 2025 for me.

* Cobra Kai (2025) Season Six, Final Season Part Three – Outstanding, the End of an Era, finally after several outstanding Season, the Series ends. The final installment follows the Miyagi-Do and Cobra Kai Dojos as they compete in the prestigious “Sekai Taikai” International Tournament to determine who is the Best Karate Dojo in the World. The first two Episodes were a bit slow, but the last three Episodes picked up the Series to its outstanding Self again.

Cobra Kai is truly the Child of the Streaming Services, being the first on the now defunct “YouTube Red” and then to Netflix where it has always been a “Crown Jewel” of both Services because of its excellent Storytelling, great Characterizations and outstanding Twists. I hate to see it go, but it is also bittersweet because after all these Years, I think they have played out all of the Angles they can possibly make of all the Main Characters in the Series, and so thoroughly that it is really time for a new Series with new Characters to take its Place. So long, Cobrai Kai, you will be missed.
