I couldn’t stop watching.Īs a huge Black Mirror fan, this movie was a home run. It’s no doubt one of Netflix’s best buys of the year and for good reason. The series is only 10 episodes so far but focuses on character-driven narrative more rather than the spells. Successfully adapt a comic book for a modern audience. The show successfully does what The CW has done with Riverdale. This show is the first show that Netflix has released worldwide under its Original banner that I feel has gained the same level of recognition to Stranger Things and that’s no small feat. The service is not beholden to dates, promotions and can get away with dropping something out of the blue.īeyond that, the movie is well polished, has a fantastic cast and because the distributor said it would have struggled in the box office, I’m glad it found a home where it’s performance box office wise isn’t that big of a deal. I’m a massive fan of the Cloverfield universe with 10 Cloverfield Lane being a particular highlight so I was overcome with joy at the idea of watching the new movie.Īlthough the movie does have plenty of issues and doesn’t hold up as well to those two that came before it, it still enters my list because of what it means for Netflix. It completely caught me off-guard and I’ve been covering all Netflix releases since 2013.

Like many, I was watching through the Superbowl and caught the surprise announcement of The Cloverfield Paradox. Jacob and Cheryl will be along soon with their top titles but here are my favorite new titles of 2018 and why.
