It's just about July, and that means we've got our list of what will be premiering on Netflix in July, and it's actually a not-so-bad line-up. As I said in my piece about what will be leaving the streaming service in the coming weeks, there's a lot more substantial stuff getting cut than there is being added, but that shouldn't diminish the big titles that will be hitting the Netflix server as July rolls out.
Most notable on this list is the Back to the Future trilogy, the best cure to a hangover, taken with water, that has ever existed. This, along with the additions of the Lethal Weapon movies and the first two Beverly Hills Cop films, would seemingly plug the hole left by the excising of seven Star Trek movies, but there's not much to substitute for losing actual masterpieces like A Clockwork Orange, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and The Quiet Man. The closest you got here is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Howard Hawks' brilliant comedy that makes premium use out of Marilyn Monroe's dazzling comic talents; Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid and The Sting, though enjoyable, are both not-so-great in the sobering light of day.
Still, July looks to bring a number of strong, if minor works, ranging from Mean Girls and Beavis and Butt-head Do America to Mustang and Big Trouble in Little China. And that's not evening mentioning that the month will bring with it the return of Netflix's most astonishing original series to date, the resonant, wildly unpredictable BoJack Horseman Season 3.So, in this especial case, I'm actually rooting for the original programming even harder than the film library.
