By its standards, the streamer's lineup of film originals in January is surprisingly slight. There are still a few Netflix-exclusive movies worth recommending this month, though, and the service is making up for its slim pickings of originals with a batch of exciting streaming acquisitions that is practically bursting at the seams with modern classics from the past 30 years.

Netflix is about to remove a large number of movies and TV shows from its service. Each month, the streamer takes down a bunch of titles due to the expiration of licencing deals – but it also culls titles that had been added under the “Netflix Original” banner.

February is just around the corner, and with it comes the opportunity to ring in Valentine’s Day by snuggling up with your beloved in front of the TV (or your laptop; no judgment, cord-cutters) and watch a borderline-irresponsible amount of Netflix.

Netflix is gearing up for a 2025 packed with diverse releases, featuring the return of popular series, new movies, and local Mexican content.
