After releasing a plethora of original content in the first two months of the year, Netflix is showing no sign of slowing down in March. As always, we’re here to provide you with everything you need to know in order yo make the most of your Netflix subscription. Starting March off well are a bunch of returning films from the romantic and hilarious Crazy, Stupid, Love to the real tear-jerker that is The Pursuit of Happiness.
In addition to some fan favorites returning, we’re also getting new crime documentaries such as Operation Varsity Blues, which is all about the infamous 2019 college admissions scandal surrounding well-known celebrity parents, and Murder Among the Mormons, which recounts the events of the 1985 Salt Lake City bombings. With narrative features, you should be on the look out for Amy Poehler’s directorial debut Moxie. The hype around the film could make it the standout hit of the month. Fans of Guillermo Del Toro’s Pacific Rim are also being treated to a new continuation of the franchise, though this time through the creative medium of anime.
Get more of our recs below along with everything coming to and leaving Netflix in March. Make sure to see what’s also in store for HBO Max and Disney+!
Our Recs:
Moxie
With Moxie, Amy Poehler makes her directorial debut while also taking on the role of Ms.Carter, a mother whose rebellious past inspires her daughter to take a stand against sexism and misogyny at her school through an anonymous publication. There are some Mean Girls vibes here, but Poehler unsurprisingly finds a way to put her own spin on it. Lead by an exciting group of fresh faces, this could be the start to an exciting new chapter in Poehler’s filmmaking career.
Moxie hits Netflix March 3!
Waffles + Mochi
Cute puppets Waffles and Mochi venture around the world aspiring to become talented chefs. With the help of former First Lady Michelle Obama, they learn to cook new recipes and celebrity friends pop in to join on the fun because why not. The popularity and platform of Michelle Obama could spring this title to success. Puppets, food, and an engaging host, what else could kids ask for?
Waffles + Mochi hits Netflix March 16!
Yes Day
Based on the children’s book of the same name, Yes Day is about a mother who finds herself always saying no to her children. She makes the big move of giving them 24 hours to make their own rules resulting in a whirlwind of a day. Staring beloved actress Jennifer Garner, this one is sure to hit well with families watching at home.
Yes Day hits Netflix March 12!
Pacific Rim: The Black
The long-awaited anime continuation is here. First announced in 2018, Pacific Rim: The Black is a hopeful comeback for a franchise that many already consider in the dust. The last film, Uprising came a few years too late and failed to make a great impression at the box office. However, though a new medium and type of story, this could reignite the love for this colorful world. The anime follows a pair of siblings who must navigate post-apocalyptic Kaiju territory in an abandoned Jaeger.
Pacific Rim: The Black hits Netflix March 4!
