It’s the first day of May, and Netflix is already knocking it out of the park with a big content drop to keep you busy while you’re stuck inside. Tons of great new movies and shows have landed on the service today, including plenty of wonderful classics you’re going to want to check out.
Perhaps most notable is the inclusion of Back to the Future and Back to the Future II, which will be joining the third film to round out the trilogy. This time-traveling classic would make for excellent weekend family viewing alongside Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory and its more modern adaptation, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
While those films are suitable for family viewing, you can rest assured that Netflix has you covered on kid-specific content too. Your little ones will be happy to see multiple Thomas & Friends titles and the animated sequel Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, and they may enjoy catching the first season of the adorable Pup Academy as well.
If you’re looking for more adult-oriented comedies, you’ll want to check out the hysterical Jim Carrey flicks Ace Venture: Pet Detective and Fun with Dick and Jane. And when you’ve had enough laughs, you can switch it over to something a bit more dramatic, such as Brad Pitt’s fantastical The Curious Case of Benjamin Button or the American historical war film, The Patriot.
