There are so many great movies heading to streaming in March that it can be hard to separate the wheat from the chaff.
Thankfully, that’s exactly what Watch With Us is for. This month, we want to highlight some overlooked gems that you’ll be able to find on streamers like Netflix, Hulu and Peacock this month.
We’re rounding up five films that we think are just as good, if not better, than critically acclaimed or mainstream fare.
Our first pick is The Green Knight, the 2021 medieval fantasy movie starring Dev Patel as King Arthur’s nephew, who goes on a journey to test his courage.
Spring is officially just around the corner — and so are a month’s worth of new shows and movies on streaming. March is shaping up to be a fantastic month for the streaming landscape. From buzzy new shows like Rooster and Scarpetta to returning series like Jury Duty and Invincible and movie debuts like Nuremberg, there’s plenty of exciting stuff […]
On Christmas Day, King Arthur’s (Sean Harris) Knights of the Round Table are intruded upon by a supernatural figure called the Green Knight (Ralph Ineson), who challenges the men to land a blow on him. The winner will receive his green axe, but must receive a blow in return the following Christmas. King Arthur’s brash nephew Gawain (Patel) accepts the challenge, decapitating the Green Knight with Excalibur. But after a year of reveling, Arthur reminds Gawain of the deal he accepted, and Gawain sets off on a quest to face the Green Knight, meeting an array of strange characters on his journey.
From A Ghost Story and Pete’s Dragon director David Lowery comes this sumptuous, evocative dark fantasy film that is as magical as it is surprisingly erotic. Patel commands the screen in his sexy, floppy-haired version of an Arthurian knight, and he is flanked by an exceptional cast that includes Barry Keoghan, Alicia Vikander, Joel Edgerton and Sarita Choudhury. The Green Knight subverts expectations and titillates the senses in its riveting deconstruction of a classic source material.
‘Dangerous Animals’ (2025) — Hulu
In Australia, wayward surfer American Zephyr (Hassie Harrison) helps real estate agent Moses (Josh Heuston) start his car, and the two end up bonding over their passion for surfing and eventually sleep together. But Zephyr refuses to be tied down by anyone and anything, so she skips out on him that night to surf. But when she reaches the shore, she is kidnapped by a sociopathic shark tour guide named Tucker (Jai Courtney), who wants to feed Zephyr to the bloodthirsty creatures of the ocean. Out in the middle of the sea on Tucker’s boat, it becomes a race against time for Zephyr to either escape or meet her fate as shark food.
Dangerous Animals is a fun, thrilling little survival horror film, anchored by an equally delightful and sadistic Courtney going full bozo mode. The film is admirably efficient, directed with intention and sleek artistry by Sean Byrne from a taut screenplay written by Nick Lepard. Dangerous Animals ends up feeling like a throwback film in all the best ways: a simple narrative, skilled craftsmanship and heightened performances that do their job enhancing the visceral intensity of the story.
Stream Dangerous Animals on March 28.
When sex worker Liz Blake (Nancy Allen) discovers the brutally murdered body of housewife Kate Miller (Angie Dickinson), she becomes the prime suspect in a crime she didn’t commit. The police think the murder can be traced back to Liz, but the real killer is still out there — and he wants to make sure that Liz stops talking. The only person who believes in Liz’s innocence is Kate’s son Peter (Keith Gordon), so the two of them work together to find Kate’s murderer. But the killer is hiding both an unexpected motivation and a surprising way to hide their identity.
Without getting into the twist reveal, suffice it say, Dressed to Kill has a major plot element that has aged poorly during the 40 years since its release. Still, a problematic movie is not a movie without its merits, and Dressed to Kill remains stylish neo-noir pulp of the highest order; the kind that legendary director Brian De Palma revels in. Surprisingly funny, terrifically performed and centered around an engaging and lurid mystery, Dressed to Kill is a must-watch for lovers of B-movie thrills.
Based on the Archie Comics series of the same name, Josie and the Pussycats follows struggling small-town musicians Josie McCoy (Rachael Leigh Cook), Melody Valentine (Tara Reid) and Valerie Brown (Rosario Dawson), who find their fortunes turning when they’re sought out by music exec Wyatt Frame (Alan Cumming). After boy band DuJour presumably dies in a plane crash, Frame sets out to find a replacement and gets one in Josie and the Pussycats. But as Josie and her band see themselves skyrocket to fame, they soon realize they’ve been set up as a ploy to control American teenagers.
Though a commercial and critical misfire upon release, Josie and the Pussycats now enjoys a much-deserved critical reappraisal and new status as a cult classic. It is now viewed by many as a successful lampoon of American pop culture and consumerism, startlingly prescient in its depiction of product placement and the hyper-commercialism of the music industry. So, come watch Josie and the Pussycats for the cheeky satire and smart humor, and then stay for the genuinely infectious pop-rock soundtrack.
This biographical drama attempts to paint a portrait of the revered co-founder of Apple (Michael Fassbender) by depicting the lead-up to three separate press conferences for products over the span of fourteen years: the Macintosh 128K in January 1984, the NeXT Computer in October 1988 and the iMac G3 in May 1998. Through these three tumultuous moments, a deconstruction of the man and the myth is brought into sharp relief — the ruthless businessman, passionate inventor, aloof genius and careless father, who changed the course of the world as we know it.
The major streamers are loading up on new shows and movies in March, but all eyes will be on the two Yellowstone spinoffs premiering this month. Marshals is airing on CBS and Paramount+, but the second spinoff, The Madison, will feature Michelle Pfeiffer and her co-stars exclusively on the streamer. Prime Video is premiering Roofman, while Peacock is […]
Danny Boyle‘s dynamic direction merges with screenwriter Aaron Sorkin‘s immensely detailed screenplay to create a biopic that subverts conventions. While Steve Jobs might have more dialogue than it needs (Sorkin, as heavy-handed as ever), the compelling structure and knockout performances make up for any perceived monotony in narrative or pacing. In the end, the ingenuity of the film stands out as a shining example of what the best biopics should be like. The fantastic cast also includes Kate Winslet, Seth Rogen, and Sarah Snook.
