Listen up, darlings—Ms. Rizzlerina is here to sprinkle some sparkle on your streaming queue and unveil the cinematic crown jewels of the past decade. That’s right, angels, Netflix didn’t just change the way we binge—it served drama, romance, suspense, and even Oscar-worthy scandal on a glitzy digital platter. And now, moi is handing you the ultimate glam guide to the 10 Best Netflix Movies of the Last 10 Years. Pop the popcorn, adjust your tiara, and let’s roll the reels!
🎬 1. Roma (2018)
Oh honey, when Alfonso Cuarón gave us “Roma,” he didn’t just give us a movie, he served us pure black-and-white brilliance with a side of soul. It won big at the Oscars, made artsy types cry (fashionably), and proved that Netflix was ready for the awards table—preferably sitting next to Meryl.
🍷 2. Marriage Story (2019)
Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver cried, screamed, and emotionally demolished us while fighting in designer outfits. It’s a divorce drama that makes you cancel couple’s therapy just to rewatch that iconic kitchen scene. Raw, real, and ridiculously good.
🚬 3. The Irishman (2019)
Martin Scorsese gathered his mob movie mafia—De Niro, Pacino, Pesci—and said, “Let’s make history… and make it long. Like, very long.” But we stayed. Through all 209 minutes. Because Rizz doesn’t flinch from drama, darling—we lean in.
🐯 4. Don’t Look Up (2021)
Politics, climate crisis, and Cate Blanchett in a severe news anchor wig? I was there for every second. This end-of-the-world satire gave us Leonardo DiCaprio being anxious, Jennifer Lawrence being ferocious, and Meryl being… president. Iconic chaos.
🎭 5. Da 5 Bloods (2020)
Spike Lee doesn’t miss—period. And this Vietnam War drama featuring the late Chadwick Boseman hit us in all the emotional pressure points. A visual and narrative knockout with major rizz impact.
🧠 6. I’m Thinking of Ending Things (2020)
What do you get when Charlie Kaufman writes a breakup movie? Total existential fabulousness, topped with talking pigs and interpretive dance. It wasn’t easy, sugarplum—but it was beautiful… in a “What did I just watch?” kinda way.
💣 7. Extraction (2020)
Ladies and gentlemen, Chris Hemsworth in a tight black tee wielding guns and Aussie charm. Need I say more? The action was explosive, the plot a bit chaotic, but let’s be honest… we didn’t come for Shakespeare.
🌕 8. The Midnight Sky (2020)
George Clooney directed AND starred in a space apocalypse flick while rocking a rugged beard? That’s checks across the board, baby! It gave moody stargazing, icy survival, and just enough daddy Clooney vibes to keep our satellites tuned in.
🩸 9. The Power of the Dog (2021)
Benedict Cumberbatch’s twisted cowboy? Arresting. Kristen Dunst’s nervous energy? Commendable. The tension? Thicker than my mascara before a red carpet. Jane Campion composed this slow-burn Western into a masterclass of subtle savagery.
👑 10. Beasts of No Nation (2015)
The film that proved Netflix could do serious, gritty, absolutely goosebumpy cinema. Idris Elba commanded the screen and gave us a performance that should’ve snatched every trophy in town. A powerful reminder that streaming can pack serious punch.
And there you have it, sweethearts—the crème de la crème of Netflix’s cinematic glam-fest. Whether you’re vibing with emotionally tortured lovers or desperate space explorers, these films prove one thing: Netflix knows how to serve us stories with style, substance, and a whole lotta streaming sass.
Now tell me, my glitterati—did your fave make the list, or do we need to create a Ms. Rizzlerina Director’s Cut? Drop your streaming obsessions in the comments, and let’s make this list shimmer harder than my highlighter at Coachella!
Until next time, stay fabulous and let the gossip (and good cinema) roll!
XOXO,
Ms. Rizzlerina 💋✨
