30 Best Movies On Netflix Right Now (March 2025)

Netflix’s best movies in March 2025 showcase a collection of the platform’s best original content as well as some of the biggest releases from the last year and the original content from the platform. Netflix remains the biggest name in the streaming game, and while it has a lot of competition these days, it still delivers some of the most popular movies on streaming as well as some acclaimed originals, including the recent Amy Schumer comedy Kinda Pregnant, which was released in February.

News surrounding Netflix’s movie division has been hectic lately with Emilia Pérez becoming a complicated title for the streamer. While the movie is the latest Netflix Best Picture Oscar nominee, as well as earning 13 nominations in total, the movie has been met with plenty of controversy, including the revelation of star Karla Sofía Gascón’s offensive past tweets. Indeed, Emilia Pérez is certainly the Netflix title that is receiving most of the attention these days, but there are a lot of other great movies available for subscribers to stream in March.
