November has flown by, with just two weekends left before we're just one month removed from 2026. The past few weeks have raced past, thanks in no small part to the release of some exciting new movies, with the best options coming from the comfort of your own home. From the brand-new Prime Video action comedy Playdate to Netflix and Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, a film that currently (and unsurprisingly) tops the streamer's charts worldwide, November has been a month stacked with wonderful features to help pass the time. But what about this weekend? Well, to help you wade through the muddy waters of the streaming catalog and find a clear path forward, Collider is here with three movies you should give a try on Netflix this weekend.

3 'Train Dreams' (2025)
Rotten Tomatoes: 95% | IMDb: 7.7/10
As the countdown to next year's Academy Awards continues, it's now more important than ever to sample those titles in the running. In the past couple of weeks, one film has crept out of obscurity and firmly into the conversation: Train Dreams. Officially debuting on Netflix this weekend, the movie follows Joel Edgerton's Robert Grainier, a railroad worker in early 20th-century America, who struggles to find his place in a rapidly changing world.
Also starring the likes of Felicity Jones and Kerry Condon, this neo-Western drama, based on Denis Johnson’s beloved novella of the same name, has already gained plenty of attention thanks to Edgerton's stand-out lead performance, with some predicting him for an Oscar nomination for a role that could be his career best. A beautifully sweeping tale that will help you pause and reflect in our ever-moving modern world, Train Dreams is a gem you won't want to miss.
2 'Don't Worry Darling' (2022)
Rotten Tomatoes: 38% | IMDb: 6.3/10
It's funny to think that the many Don’t Worry Darling controversies only happened three years ago. Now, with the divisive discourse in the past, it is perhaps the perfect time to return to Olivia Wilde's psychological thriller with a fresh perspective. Thankfully, Netflix acquired the movie into its catalog this November. The film follows the seemingly perfect marriage of Alice (Florence Pugh) and Jack (Harry Styles), as the former begins to suspect something is amiss, whilst the latter continues his top-secret work away from home.
The film might've only received 38% from critics on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, but don't let that put you off a viewing experience that, although not without flaws, is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. A mystery with plenty of twists and turns, the movie also boasts a stellar central cast led by Pugh doing typically great work. For a two-hour escape into a psychological thriller that will have you gripped, why not try Don't Worry Darling?
1 'Joy Ride' (2023)
Rotten Tomatoes: 90% | IMDb: 6.4/10
Another new arrival on Netflix this month, and one with much less controversy, Joy Ride follows Emily in Paris' Ashley Park and Nobody Wants This star Sherry Cola, alongside Stephanie Hsu and Sabrina Wu, as a group of four friends about to embark on a life-changing journey. On the search for one of their birth mothers, they take a trip across China and discover the true meaning of friendship.
Hilarious, heartwarming, and raunchy, this fast-paced road trip comedy is certainly not one to watch with the whole family. A NSFW flick not for the easily offended, Joy Ride simply and purely does its job as a comedy and makes its audience laugh. In Collider's review at the time, Therese Lacson said the movie was "not only chock-full of ribald comedy, but it's a wholesome story about friendship, which is what grounds these types of movies."
