With so many movies available to stream, it can be hard to know what to hit play on when you find yourself spending the evening on the sofa. Netflix’s Top 10 charts, which compile its most watched films and TV shows into an ever-shifting ranking, help narrow things down, but there’s still some serious deciding to be done, isn’t there?

You might be in the mood for something for particular, in which case you might be better off perusing through our more genre-focused round-ups of thebest Netflix thrillersorbest Netflix comedies, or only have to time to watch one or two titles? Fortunately for us and our most recent recommendations, this week’s Top 10 doesn’t differ hugely from last week’s, so our picks center on a brand new entry and a stellar animation that just missed out in our previous suggestions.

With that, let’s not waste any more precious time and dive into what youneedto be tuning into from Netflix’s Top 10 movies this week. Don’t worry, if you’re not totally into our ideas, we’ve also dropped the full list, too.

Sing

Sing cashes in on three things audiences just can’t seem to get enough; singing competitions, talking animals and a good ol' underdog story. A brightly-colored jukebox musical, it skews a little young, but it’s sure to perk you up on a cold, pre-Christmas night.

Featuring the voice talents of Scarlett Johansson, Taron Egerton, Matthew McConaughey and more, it centers on dapper dreamer Buster, a koala who sets about launching the world’s greatest singing competition in the hopes of restoring his beloved theater to its former glory.

While it may not possess the uniqueness of LAIKA creations like Coraline or the profundity ofDisneyPixarflicks such asInside Out 2, the Illumination animation is packed with enough fun, heart, and pop lover-friendly needle drops to render it the perfect feel good watch.

It’s perhaps even more fun now, knowing where the series lead, to go back and revel in the nostalgia of its humble beginnings. It’s also a treat to see everyone decked out in Y2K clobber. The story isn’t the strongest, but story has neverreallybeen Fast & Furious’s thing; the action sequences are genuinely thrilling and the cast all turn in great performances. This one is sure to keep you fromdrifting off in front of the TV…
