Best New Movies and Series on Netflix for April 1st, 2023

The Bourne Movie Collection

Picture: Universal Pictures

Four of the five Bourne movies landed on Netflix today, with only Jason Bourne (2016) the only title omitted from the lineup.

The first three movies serve as a trilogy with Matt Damon portraying a CIA agent assessing suffering from amnesia and on the run. The fourth movie saw a new lead in the form of Jeremy Renner.

As with many of the movie collections added to Netflix so far in 2023, you don’t have long to watch all four movies on Netflix, with them currently set to expire by the end of April 2023.

Hatfields & McCoys (Limited Series)

Number of episodes: 3
Rating: TV-14
Language: English
Genre: Drama, History, Romance
Cast: Kevin Costner, Bill Paxton, Matt Barr
Runtime: 163 mins / 2h 43m

Picture: HISTORY

It’s rare that Netflix picks up a scripted series from any network in the United States nowadays but when it does, it’s always strategic and that’s exactly the case with the three-episode miniseries starring Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton.

With a total runtime below three hours, the show will hit many of the same notes if you’re a fan of Yellowstone.

Here’s what you can expect from the series which aired in the early 2010s on HISTORY:

“Two close friends return to their neighboring homes after the Civil War, but building tensions and resentments soon explode into desperate warfare.”

Greenberg (2010)

Rating: R
Language: English
Genre: Comedy, Drama, Romance
Director: Noah Baumbach
Cast: Ben Stiller, Greta Gerwig, Jennifer Jason Leigh
Writer: Jennifer Jason Leigh, Noah Baumbach
Runtime: 107 min / 1h 47m

One of the unannounced movies hitting Netflix US today is the Noah Baumbach-directed Focus Features movie, Greenberg.

The movie is about a 40-something man named Roger Greenberg (played by Ben Stiller) who returns to Los Angeles and starts a relationship with his brother’s assistant while trying to figure out his life.

Around the time of release, the New York Times reviewed the movie, concluding, “It is the funniest and saddest movie Mr. Baumbach has made so far, and also the riskiest”.
