5 movies to watch on Netflix before they expire this month!

Everyone is well aware of the great new releases available on Netflix at the start of every month but what viewers tend to forget, that,as a new bunch of fresh movies and TV shows make their way onto the Netflix catalogue for our enjoyment, a host of other titles have to make way! Suddenly that TV series we were almost finished watching or that movie that we never got around to seeing have disappeared out of sight leaving feelings of frustration and regret. How do we counter act this? Firstly, it's always wise to keep account of titles that are expiring every month to avoid repeat let downs. These lists are readily available from such websites as Vodzilla  and keep streaming audiences well informed of what is coming and going on online streaming platforms. You can also regularly check this blog or my facebook page for updates on the best of what is coming and going on Netflix.
With that in mind, I have made a list of 5 titles that are expiring very soon and are worth catching before Netflix unceremoniously dumps them for newer features.

Here are my 5 movie picks to catch before they expire:

5. A Bronx Tale (expires 22nd April)
Directed and starring Robert De Niro this drama benefits from Chazz Palminteri's solid script, some solid performances and a gallant effort from director De Niro on his debut behind the camera. Catch it before it disappears!


4.The Spy Who Came in from the Cold (expires 21st April)
A near perfect Cold war espionage thriller based on the John Le Carre novel takes it leave from Netflix after nearly three years on their catalogue. Richard Burton and the late Cyril Cusack are part of a highly talented cast in this Martin Ritt directed feature that compels it's viewer throughout it's ninety minutes plus running time.

3. The Shawshank Redemption (expires 22nd April)
One last chance to see everyone's favourite movie. The dulcet tones of Morgan Freeman tell the tale of wrongly convicted Andy Dufresne and his attempt to escape Shawshank prison. A movie that has aged well and well worth another look if it's been



2. The Martian (expires 24th April)
Ridley Scott directed sci-fi film that is clever, thrilling and at times amusing thanks to a faithful dedication to the source material and a remarkable performance from Matt Damon, this is a movie that simply has to be seen before it disappears into space after just 6 short months on Netflix!


1. Spotlight (expires 28th April)
Academy Award Best Picture Winner of 2015, an all star ensemble gather to tell the riveting true story of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Boston Globe investigation that would  rock the city and cause a crisis in the Catholic Church. Written and directed by Tom McCarthy this film was one of 2015's best!
