Here are the best movies on Netflix in April.
“Atonement” (April 1)
James McAvoy, Keira Knightley, and a young Saoirse Ronan star in this drama set around World War II about how the lives of three people are disrupted by a lie.
“Kindergarten Cop” (April 1)
Arnold Schwarzenegger is at his 1990s peak in this Ivan Reitman-directed comedy playing a tough cop who has to show his soft side when he goes undercover as a kindergarten teacher.
“Mission: Impossible” (April 1)
Long before the “M:I” franchise was synonymous with Tom Cruise doing outlandish stunts, he teamed up with legendary director Brian De Palma for a movie that combines the memorable elements from the TV show with De Palma’s masterful cinematic eye.
The rest of the movies in the franchise up until “Rogue Nation” are also now on Netflix.
“Money Talks” (April 1)
After his breakout role playing Smokey in “Friday” and scene-stealing appearances in “Dead Presidents” and “The Fifth Element,” Chris Tucker scored the lead role opposite Charlie Sheen in this action comedy in which he plays a petty criminal run from the law. Sheen plays the reporter trying to land the story.
“Smokey and the Bandit” (April 1)
Burt Reynolds took a gamble starring in his stuntman Hal Needham’s directorial debut, and it led to a classic 1970s movie.
Reynolds shows off his charm and charisma opposite Sally Field playing a bootlegger who must transport 400 cases of Coors beer to Atlanta while a crazed sheriff (Jackie Gleason) is in hot pursuit.
“Scream” (April 10)
The 2022 version of “Scream” gives a shot in the arm to the franchise birthed by horror master Wes Craven in 1996. The return of franchise favorites Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, and David Arquette, plus the additions of Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, and Jack Quaid made for a perfect fusion of legacy and new blood for this classic horror IP.
“A Quiet Place Part II” (April 11)
If you need more horror, check out the sequel to the hit film “A Quiet Place.” In this chapter, the Abbott family faces the terrors of the outside world after surviving an alien home invasion in the first movie.
