Both Netflix and rival streaming service Hulu came out with documentaries about the infamous Fyre Festival this month and it’s been all that anyone has been able to talk about. If you missed the social media moment, play catch up by watching FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened this weekend!

4. Polar

If you’re more into fiction, you can catch Polar available to stream on Netflix starting this Friday. This Netflix original film is about a former assassin who must face off with an army of killers. Mads Mikkelsen stars.

3. xXx

Vin Diesel lovers rejoice! You can catch the seasoned action star in xXx, his hit flick about a stuntman turned spy. If you like the movie, its sequel, XXX: State of the Union, is also currently streaming on Netflix.

2. I Know What You Did Last Summer

Fans of classic horror will enjoy re-watching I Know What You Did Last Summer. This scary teen movie may have been rotten with critics, but it’s just one of those flicks you have to watch. It’s a lot of fun, even when it doesn’t entirely make sense.

1. Happy Feet

If you’re looking for something sweet and simple that you can watch with the whole family, I highly recommend checking out Happy Feet. It’s a musical movie about a penguin who has a passion for tap-dancing. If you don’t trust my recommendation, trust the awards shows: Happy Feet took home the 2007 Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
