Best Netflix movies: Mank

Release Year: 2020 

Written by Jack Fincher 

Directed by David Fincher 

Starring Gary Oldman, Amanda Seyfried, Lily Collins, Arliss Howard, Tom Pelphrey, and Charles Dance

Mank is probably the best Netflix movie of the year. It was released in select theaters in November 2020 and later on Netflix in December 2020.

David Fincher, who also created Mindhunter, has been trying to make Mank for years. Fincher’s father, Jack, wrote the screenplay for the movie. Netflix finally made it happen, and it’s really good.

The movie tells the story of Herman J. Mankiewicz and his time writing the screenplay for Citizen Kane, which was directed by Orson Welles. It’s considered one of the best movies of all time.

Mank is not about the making of Citizen Kane, and that’s probably a good thing. Film Twitter couldn’t handle it.

The performances in Mank are the best part of the movie. Oldman is ridiculously good, as is Amanda Seyfried. I was really impressed with Tom Pelphrey’s performance. You just have to watch this movie. It’s like a time machine back to the 1930s and 40s.
