Best New Movies and Series on Netflix for June 1st, 2023

Top 3 New Movies Added to Netflix Today

We’ll have more movie picks this weekend, but for now, here are three movies we think you should instantly add to your Netflix Queues.

  • Lawless (2012) – In terms of star power, Lawless delivers. It takes you back to the Prohibition era

  • Spider-Man Trilogy – With the release of Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse in theaters, what better time to revisit the first three excellent Sam Raimi entries?
  • To Leslie (2022) – Netflix is getting a couple of Oscar-nominated movies, one being the Andrea Riseborough drama. The movie follows a mother returning home after finding herself at rock bottom, having spent all her lottery winnings.


The Mick (Seasons 1-2)

Rating: TV-14
Language: English
Genre: Comedy
Cast: Kaitlin Olson, Sofia Black-D’Elia, Thomas Barbusca
Writer: Dave Chernin, John Chernin
Runtime: 30 min

Looking for a binge? Then the license of FOX’s The Mick is a great pick for today, with all 37 episodes dropping onto Netflix today.

Led by Kaitlin Olson, the series follows a tough, foul-mouthed woman who moves to raise pampered kids of her older sister. While the series was canceled, it’s still very much worth a watch if you haven’t seen it already.


THE DAYS (Limited Series)

Number of episodes: 8
Rating: TV-MA
Language: Japanese
Genre: Drama, History, Thriller
Cast: Kôji Yakusho, Kaoru Kobayashi, Oji Suzuka
Runtime: 56 mins

Chernobyl has been one of the best limited series released in recent years from HBO. Given that, we’ve been waiting patiently for the new Japanese limited series covering the Fukushima disaster in 2011.

The new eight-part drama covers the disaster’s build-up and the resulting fallout, ultimately being one of the most tragic moments in recent Japanese memory.

Early reviews have been particularly strong from the region and it currently sits at an 8.8 on IMDb at the time of publishing.
