Right, Netflix lovers! I’ve just had a proper dig through what’s absolutely flying off the virtual shelves on Netflix UK, and blimey, what a mixed bag of brilliance we’ve got right now. Whether you’re after spine-tingling thrillers, laugh-out-loud animations, or a bit of nostalgic magic, Netflix is absolutely jam-packed with treats this month.

So grab your favourite biscuits, settle into that perfect spot on the sofa, and let me walk you through the top 10 films that everyone’s binge-watching right now. Trust me, there’s something here for everyone!

The Undisputed Champion: The Woman in Cabin 10

Taking the crown at number one is The Woman in Cabin 10, and honestly, it’s not hard to see why this thriller has got everyone glued to their screens. Based on Ruth Ware’s bestselling novel, this psychological thriller follows a travel journalist who witnesses something sinister on a luxury cruise ship.

What I love about this one is how it keeps you second-guessing everything, classic “did I really see what I think I saw?” territory that makes for absolutely gripping viewing. It’s been sitting pretty at the top for three days now, and from what I’m hearing, it’s not going to budge anytime soon. Perfect for those nights when you want something that’ll keep you wide awake (in the best possible way, of course!).

Documentary Gold: My Father, the BTK Killer

At number two, we’ve got My Father, the BTK Killer, and wow, what a heavy-hitter this one is. This documentary dives deep into one of America’s most notorious serial killers, but what makes it absolutely compelling is the perspective, it is told through the eyes of his daughter, Kerri Rawson.

I’ll be honest, true crime documentaries can be a bit much sometimes, but this one handles such a difficult subject with real sensitivity and insight. It’s been holding strong in the top 10 for three days, and if you’re into well-crafted documentaries that really make you think, this is absolutely worth your time.

Family Fun with KPop Demon Hunters

Now here’s something completely different! KPop Demon Hunters has been absolutely dominating the charts for an incredible 115 days, that’s nearly four months of staying power! This animated gem combines two things that shouldn’t work together but absolutely do: catchy KPop music and demon-hunting adventures.

What’s brilliant about this film is how it manages to be genuinely entertaining for both kids and adults. The animation is vibrant, the music is ridiculously catchy (seriously, you’ll be humming these tunes for days), and there’s enough action to keep everyone engaged. Plus, there’s even a sing-along version at number six for those brave souls who want to belt out the tunes, and trust me, after one viewing, you’ll definitely want to!

Drama and Nostalgia: The Middle Pack

Reunion sits comfortably at number four, and this one’s been making waves for seven days now. It’s one of those family dramas that really gets under your skin, exploring old friendships, buried secrets, and all those messy emotions that make for compelling viewing. Perfect for when you want something with a bit more emotional depth.

Caramelo at number five is a delightful surprise that’s been charming audiences for five days. This Spanish-language film (don’t worry, there are subtitles!) is a sweet, coming-of-age story that’s got heart in spades. Sometimes you just need something that’ll leave you feeling warm and fuzzy, you know?

And speaking of feeling good, Something’s Gotta Give has just landed at number eight! This romantic comedy with Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton is pure comfort viewing. It’s only been in the rankings for one day, but something tells me it’s going to stick around. There’s nothing quite like a well-crafted rom-com to brighten up a dreary evening.

Action-Packed Adventures

War 2 at number nine might only be two days into its chart run, but it’s already making a proper impact. If you’re in the mood for some high-octane action and don’t mind subtitles (it’s a Bollywood blockbuster), this one delivers spectacular fight scenes and enough plot twists to keep you thoroughly entertained.

No Good Deed rounds out our middle section at number seven, and this thriller’s been keeping viewers on edge for five days straight. Without giving too much away, let’s just say it’s one of those films where you think you know what’s happening, and then, BAM!, everything gets turned upside down.

The Magical Finale: Harry Potter Returns

And saving the absolute best for last (well, technically tenth, but who’s counting?), we’ve got Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone! This beloved classic has been working its magic in the top 10 for 15 days now, and honestly, is anyone surprised?

There’s something absolutely brilliant about rewatching this film: whether it’s your first time or your fiftieth. The nostalgia hits differently every time, doesn’t it? From that first glimpse of Hogwarts to Harry discovering he’s a wizard, it never gets old. Perfect for family movie nights or when you just need a bit of childhood magic in your life.

What’s particularly lovely is seeing how it holds its own against all these shiny new releases. Some films are just timeless, and this is definitely one of them.

The Verdict: Something for Everyone

Looking at this top 10, what strikes me most is the incredible variety. We’ve got psychological thrillers that’ll keep you guessing, documentaries that’ll make you think, animated adventures that’ll have the whole family singing along, and classic comfort viewing that never goes out of style.

The staying power of some of these films is pretty remarkable too: KPop Demon Hunters holding strong for 115 days shows there’s definitely an appetite for creative, original content that dares to be different.
