3 new Netflix movies dropping in early June you might regret watching

A new month brings new movies to Netflix. Many of these are older gems, such as the six Alfred Hitchcock films that dropped on June 1, but that doesn't mean they are all good. You might like a movie that many do not.

Such is the case with the three films that follow. They aren't very good. If you don't believe us, just check their Rotten Tomatoes scores. Neither critics nor general audiences were huge fans.

We are just trying to warn you so you don't run across a good idea for a flick that truly only wastes your time. You only have so much every day, so move on from these and find some films that are worthy of your viewing.

These three movies new to Netflix should be avoided

The Devil's Own (1997)

This movie, unfortunately, came at a time when neither Harrison Ford nor Brad Pitt were at the top of their immense games. Plus, the plot does them no good and feels extremely forced. Pitt playing a potential member of the Irish Republican Army is a terrible fit.

In fact, the entire plot feels contrived, as if written by the government of the UK. A by rote narrative and easily predicted character arcs do the movie no good, nor the viewer. You might rightfully be a fan of Ford and Pitt, but it's best to stay away from this drivel.

Focus (2015)

What a whiff for this movie. The leads alone are worthy of greatness as Will Smith plays a con artist who takes Margot Robbie's character under his wing. They get involved in a relationship until Smith's Nicky suddenly ends the relationship. Three years go by, and they unexpectedly meet again.

A creative team has to go a long way toward making Smith and Robbie boring, but they do that on this film. The acting is fine. Everything else is not.

Now You See Me 2 (2016)

Another movie with an amazing cast that goes awry. If one were to say they were going to see a film that included Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Lizzy Caplan, Woody Harrelson, Morgan Freeman, and Daniel Radcliffe, you might ask if you can join them.

This is the sequel to a movie that has a group of illusionists steal money from some wealthy people and give those dollars to the illusionists' audience members, but even the first one felt contrived. The sequel only doubles down on the boredom and unimaginative process of the film.
