It’s another day, another #1 finish for Back in Action on Netflix’s Top 10 charts for movies. But this romantic action flick has a much bigger feat set in its sights.

Netflix has announced all the new shows and movies arriving in February 2025 and there is a lot coming to the streaming service that you need to be watching.

By its standards, the streamer's lineup of film originals in January is surprisingly slight. There are still a few Netflix-exclusive movies worth recommending this month, though, and the service is making up for its slim pickings of originals with a batch of exciting streaming acquisitions that is practically bursting at the seams with modern classics from the past 30 years.

This month’s selection of movies includes an underseen rock opera, one of the best movies of the 2000s, a paranoid thriller about American misdeeds abroad, and a nice pre-Oscars catch-up on one of Timothée Chalamet’s best performances.
