Looking for something good to watch on Netflix this weekend? Try these five movies, including The Laundromat, Men in Black, and more.

It’s the weekend, which means it’s a great time to catch up on everything you missed from Friday’s release. You’ll also want to get ready for movies that are leaving the service soon. Here are five great movies to watch this weekend on Netflix, including The Laundromat, Men in Black, and much more.

Men in Black

What’s not to love about the original Men in Black. Get the thoughts of the International reboot/spin-off attempt made earlier this year and remember why you fell in love with this franchise from the start. Sometimes you just need a great comedy to tune in for, right?

Men in Black dropped today on Netflix. You can stream it as much as you want throughout the weekend.

Bridget Jones’s Baby

This is something to watch tonight. Bridget Jones’s Baby leaves Netflix on Oct. 20, so you’ve only got a few hours to get it in. For fans of Bridget Jones’ sDiary, this is a must. Colin Firth and Patrick Dempsey star alongside Renee Zellwegger in this rom-com sequel.

Seventeen

There isn’t much shared about Seventeen, and that’s what makes it worth the watch this weekend on Netflix. This Spanish Netflix Original film focuses on a 17-year-old boy, who escapes juvie to find his therapy dog. He embarks on a journey of self-discovery and the understanding of love and life, along with his grandmother and brother.

Seventeen was one of the Netflix movies to drop yesterday so is now available to stream.

Eli

It’s not Halloween yet, but you may be getting ready for it this weekend. Plus, any weekend is a great time to put on a scary movie and sit in the dark with your popcorn. Netflix has you covered with Eli, a movie about a boy who goes through treatment for a rare disease. While going through this treatment, he finds himself trapped in a haunted house.

Mysterious doctors, weird ghost stories…what’s not going to give you chills? Eli is now available to stream on Netflix.

The Laundromat

Last but certainly not least, it’s one of the most anticipated Netflix movies of the month. The Laundromat was released on Netflix on Oct. 18, and now you can use your weekend to stream it. Sort of based on a true story, this is a movie you’ll want to watch for pure enjoyment and the excellent cast.

The story follows Ellen Martin, who is supposed to be on an idyllic vacation. However, she soon finds herself investigating a fake insurance policy. Sometimes you just can’t escape work, right?
