New to Netflix: 5 movies to enjoy this weekend

Settle in.

It might not be the hardest decision we have to make each week, but it's definitely one that takes a lot of consideration. Yes, choosing the right movie sets the tone for your night - watch something disappointing and you go to bed feeling the same way, choose something great and you'll have to force yourself to turn the TV off. Well, we think you might struggle with the latter when you catch a glimpse at just some of the films that have arrived on Netflix over the last week. From teen dramas to comedies to great documentaries, the choice on Netflix never disappoints. But just to make it a little easier, we've narrowed down the list somewhat. Here are five films that arrived on Netflix this weekend.
