First off, be warned: Morbius is coming to Netflix this September. You can now watch the derided Jared Leto superhero flick in secret and avoid the scorn of those around you—or enjoy it with a rowdy group, as it probably should be seen. But aside from that notable “get,” what else does Netflix have loaded up for September? Here, from comedy classics to artier dramas, are your best viewing options.

Hard to say it’s among the “best” if you haven’t actually seen Blonde. On the other hand, I didn’t finish Little Nicky, but what I did see was enough to conclude it was terrible.
Yeah, the “still hilarious” line…maybe in comparison to Jack and Jill? Little Nicky is not funny at all.
>> Hard to say it’s among the “best” if you haven’t actually seen BlondeOnly if you have integrity. (“The Munsters” also made the list.)
Yet that same amount of frustration never seemed to happen when the brilliant Andrew Dominik’s Marilyn Monroe biopic-ish film Blonde was slapped with an NC-17 rating by the Motion Picture Association of America, thus sentencing the Joyce Carol Oates adaptation to skip theaters and go straight to Netflix.I don’t think these reactions are comparable. I’m pretty sure that the frustration with Batgirl is that people won’t be able to see it at all.
Alienate that Stranger Things crowd by showing even stranger things.Wha…? LOL I don’t get this jab at all. Stranger Things is fantastic. A Clockwork Orange is brilliant. It is possible to appreciate and enjoy both.
Collateral is notable for being one of the very few films where Cruise plays a totally unredeemed villain. It’s a shame that he doesn’t do more of that.
Best Films. Little Nicky.
