These are some of the greatest movies coming to Netflix in June, among all the older or current blockbusters and new originals joining the streaming site.
For city residents, at least, the old adage of waiting for a bus for a long time and then having three come along at once is surely more appropriate symbolically than in actuality these days. It’s a phrase that aptly describes the material on streaming services like Netflix and Prime, where the films, documentaries, and TV episodes are frequently the same stale ideas you’ve either seen dozens of times or clicked right over.

Each year, the film industry’s yearly cycle follows a similar pattern, with a flurry of releases around summer and then again in the run-up to awards season.
7. Iluzja – 1st of June, USA

Iluzja (direct translation: Illusion) is a Polish film about a despondent woman whose missing daughter has left her in a state of distress. She straddles the edge between delusory reality and acceptance of her daughter’s absence. She makes remarkable breakthroughs into a miracle discovery through observational processes. Marta Minorowicz‘s next film will undoubtedly have the same emotional depth and aesthetically breathtaking locations as her last film, Zud.
6. Hustle – 8th of June, UK, and USA

Adam Sandler, who has been wrongfully called a dud-maker, has been given a $350 million Netflix endowment to produce four more films for the streaming giant. Sandler began his career as a developing comedian and swiftly adapted his comedic skills to the big screen. He has gained a reputation for corny humor, cheap chuckles, and low-hanging fruit comedy in recent years, most notably with his initial stint as a Netflix guinea pig, with his acting talents in these comedies generally being dismissed as one-dimensional.
Despite being repeatedly criticized, the Happy Gilmore actor has disproved the false label of being a one-trick pony by switching from comedic to tragic parts. This includes roles in Paul Thomas Anderson‘s Punch Drunk Love and, more recently, the critically praised Uncut Gems by the Safdie Brothers, in which he demonstrated his undeniable flexibility and profound acting ability. The highly anticipated Hustle tells the story of a potential NBA great spotted by a luckless and jinxed Philadelphia 76ers scout (Sandler), following the huge riches of Uncut Gems. Based on what we know about Hustle, the picture promises to be another terrific dramatic part for the actor.
5. Trees of Peace – 10th of June, UK, and USA

Netflix announced in March that Alanna Brown‘s Trees of Peace had been acquired for distribution. The script is based on true events and depicts the friendship of four women who are stuck in hiding beneath the floorboards of a house during the Rwandan Genocide in 1994. The ladies, who come from various backgrounds, create budding friendships in the midst of struggle, violence, and the threat of death. At the renowned American Black Film Festival, Trees of Peace won three honors, including Best Feature.
4. Vice – 10th of June, USA

In Adam McKay‘s film Vice, Christian Bale takes on the role of Dick Cheney, the former Vice President of the United States. The film follows President George W. Bush’s second-in-command as he realizes his political ambitions through Washington bureaucracy before becoming the second most powerful man in American and international affairs. Director McKay‘s vast catalog of dramatic and political satires is brimming with talent, with films like Don’t Look Up, The Big Short, and Anchorman among his most acclaimed works.
3. Motherless Brooklyn – 13th of June, UK

Motherless Brooklyn was directed and featured Edward Norton, and was based on Jonathan Lethem’s best-selling novel of the same name. Lionel Essrog, a Tourette sufferer, is charged with investigating the murder of his employer Frank (Bruce Willis), but he quickly finds a deeper and darker plot inside. The gritty, atmospheric modern neo-noir picture Motherless Brooklyn is said to be Norton‘s passion project, a piece of work he had been diligently grafting over for the better part of two decades. It serves as a patient, brooding illustration of Norton‘s talent.
2. Bohemian Rhapsody – 16th of June, UK

Freddie Mercury of Queen is the epitome of iconic: his flamboyant and theatrical demeanor, his white vest, hairy chest, tight black leather leggings, jutting fangs and gums, but most importantly, his astonishing musical skill. Bohemian Rhapsody is named after a Queen song, possibly their most well-known. The screenplay depicts the British rock band’s rapid climb to super-stardom and ultimate demise. It follows Mercury as he battles egocentrism, sexuality, and incurable disease, and is brought to life by an outstanding Rami Malek performance in one of the most well-known music biopics of all time.
1. Spiderhead – 17th of June, UK, and USA

With the premiere of two of his scripts, Top Gun: Maverick and the Netflix-backed Spiderhead, Joseph Kosinski has a busy month ahead of him. Chris Hemsworth plays a nasty, yet forward-thinking, revolutionary whose imaginative approach to altering the treatment of convicts at an avant-garde correctional facility utilizing emotion-modifying medications are shown in the film. Because Kosinski has established himself as a true industry leader in sci-fi and action films, tremendous things are expected from Spiderhead.
