It’s a massive understatement at this point to say that Netflix is generating content at an insane pace. Not only do they produce new series on a seemingly weekly basis, but the streaming service announced a new comedy special every week in 2017! The content machine is also focused on creating Netflix Original movies too. We could all use some escapism in these bizarro times, but who can keep up! Fortunately, you don’t have to, that’s why Monkeys Fighting Robots is here.
As Netflix Original movies pop up, it’s clear the streaming service is not ignoring any genre. But nothing made people take notice more than the recent announcement of Bright, a fantasy film starring Will Smith. Netflix is serious about making good, if not, great, content and the five movies on our list serve as clear evidence that they’re off to a good start.

2. Arq
Comedy, horror, science fiction, Netflix Original movies fear no genre. For viewers, this is a great thing. Arq is a science fiction film in the spirit of Source Code and Looper. Robbie Amell and Rachael Taylor star as a couple stuck in a time loop. At the start of each loop, a group of masked men kidnaps the couple and holds them hostage for money. Each pass through the loop brings the pair closer to the truth.
