For one night only, I’ll save you the half hour it takes to find something you want to watch on Netflix. A classic 1990s sci-fi comedy is leaving Netflix soon, and you only have one day to watch it.
This film is Men in Blackwhich will be removed from the UK Netflix library on Friday August 23rd. That means it will be GONE on Friday, so you need to watch one of the best movies on Netflix today.
With Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones, Men in Black is about government agents working for a department that monitors aliens on Earth. When Smith joins the agency as Agent J under the guidance of Jones’ Agent K, they stumble upon a conspiracy that could destroy the world.
The film is a recognized classic, as can be seen from its 91% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes as well as its three sequels (the second, Men in Black III, also leaves Netflix UK on the same day).
Men in Black even won an Oscar for Best Makeup and was nominated for Best Production Design and Best Original Score (which no longer exists). Not many pop culture franchises can say that!?
You can watch Men in Black II on Prime Video if you want to watch the films in one go before the third part is released, although that one is out in early September. Men in Black: International remains on Netflix but does not have a set exit date yet, but the main characters are swapped out so it is not that important for fans to watch.
If you live in the USA, you can Men in Black on Peacock, but there’s a clock ticking above you too: It’ll be on the streamer until the end of August, but in September it’ll be gone too.
There is no word on where Men in Black will be released in the UK or the US, but you can still buy the DVD or buy or rent the film digitally if you really want to see it. Men in Black is a classic science fiction film, it will probably show up somewhere!
