Netflix is about to remove ‘most underrated film of last five years'
Netflix is removing a large selection of titles in June 2025, including the most underrated film of the last five years.
While the streaming service releases a bursting list of titles each month, it also takes many down without warning, meaning things can suddenly vanish from your watchlist.
Fortunately, The Independent is on hand with a compilation of every movie and TV series falling victim to the culling, including certain Original titles, which we've listed below.
Some acclaimed films are also being struck from the service include The Batman, starring Robert Pattinson, Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy and 2023 family comedy Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret.
The Judy Blume adaptation follows an 11-year-old girl (Abby Ryder Fortson) who is forced to grow up in a new neighbourhood after her parents (Rachel MacAdams and Benny Safdie) relocate them.
It became a modest critical hit upon its initial release. The movie, which was directed by Kelly Fremon Craig, was a box office flop, grossing $21.5m.
The film's addition to streaming service has since led to a cult fanbase – and has seen it branded a 'devastatingly underrated' film by viewers perplexed it didn't receive enough plaudits.
Find the full list of every movie and TV show being removed from Netflix in June 2025 below.
NB: The Independent put this list together with help from What's on Netflix.

5 best Ana de Armas movies to stream right now
In the 10 years since she made her English-language film debut, Cuban-born actress Ana de Armas has become one of Hollywood's top rising stars, moving from supporting roles to lead parts in blockbusters and awards contenders. Even in her earliest appearances in American films, including Eli Roth's trashy thriller 'Knock Knock' and the rote boxing biopic 'Hands of Stone,' she makes a strong impression with limited screen time. She's gone on to star in big-budget streaming movies like Netflix's 'The Gray Man' (with Chris Evans and Ryan Gosling) and Apple TV Plus' 'Ghosted' (with Evans again). Now she's taking her career to the next level as the title character in 'Ballerina,' a spin-off of the hugely popular 'John Wick' movies, hitting theaters June 6. Here are five Ana de Armas movies to check out before watching 'Ballerina." As the seemingly timid nurse to wealthy novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer), de Armas is the stealth heroine of writer-director Rian Johnson's clever murder mystery. At first, de Armas' Marta appears overwhelmed by Harlan's obnoxious family members, following his mysterious death. But even when she becomes the target of their suspicions, Marta maintains her integrity and compassion, finding an understanding ally in renowned detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig). In a cast full of major stars — including Jamie Lee Curtis, Chris Evans, Don Johnson, Toni Collette and Michael Shannon as Harlan's extended family — de Armas emerges as the most engaging presence, and Marta provides the story's anchor. Craig may have gone on to solve more mysteries as Benoit Blanc, but he's not the only one who makes a lasting impression. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Watch on Prime Video The decades-later sequel to sci-fi classic 'Blade Runner' explores the intersection between humanity and artificial life, placing de Armas in the middle of that divide as Joi, the holographic girlfriend of android protagonist K (Ryan Gosling). K is a blade runner, which means that he hunts down his fellow replicants when they go rogue. His latest assignment puts him on the trail of a conspiracy, which leads him to former blade runner Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford). Joi functions as a sounding board and support system for K, but she's not just a glorified assistant. She has needs and desires of her own, even if she can never physically touch her lover. One of the movie's most affecting scenes involves Joi employing a replicant surrogate so that she and K can have sex, and de Armas beautifully expresses that sense of longing and frustration. Rent/buy at Apple or Amazon De Armas shows up for just one extended sequence in Daniel Craig's final movie as superspy James Bond, but she gives the somewhat bloated movie a jolt of energy and leaves the audience wanting more once she disappears. She plays Paloma, a rookie CIA agent sent by Bond's American ally Felix Leiter (Jeffrey Wright) to aid him on a mission in Cuba. While Bond is suave, confident and sometimes overly serious, Paloma is exuberant and a bit nervous, but she proves to be resourceful when the moment arises. De Armas shows off her charisma and her skills as an action hero, and Paloma looks like a prime candidate for a potential spin-off. That probably won't happen in the current Bond era, but 'No Time to Die' offers a glimpse into de Armas' future ability to carry an action franchise. Rent/buy at Apple or Amazon De Armas brings nuance and heartfelt emotion to a fairly thankless role in director Todd Phillips' fact-based dramedy about a pair of friends who become unlikely international arms dealers. De Armas plays the concerned wife of David Packouz (Miles Teller), an aimless dreamer who seems to find his calling when he reconnects with his childhood best friend Efraim Diveroli (Jonah Hill) and is introduced to the shady world of contract bidding for the Department of Defense. Although de Armas' Iz spends most of her time sitting at home worrying about David's safety and getting angry about his lies, de Armas effectively conveys the anguish and frustration of Iz's position, grounding the story in a familiar dynamic. As David and Efraim travel around the world, getting themselves deeper and deeper into trouble, Iz provides a sensible, relatable counterpoint to the mayhem. Rent/buy at Apple or Amazon Director Andrew Dominik's fictionalized biopic about Marilyn Monroe is a bit of a disastrous mess, with bold stylistic experiments that mostly don't pay off. One aspect that Dominik gets right, though, is casting de Armas as the troubled movie star, whose beauty most likely prevented her from getting the respect she sought as an artist. Although the filmmaker puts his protagonist through nearly as much torture as she endured from the actual people in her life, de Armas maintains her poise and vulnerability in a sensitive and empathetic performance that earned her an Oscar nomination. The movie is often tough to watch, but it shows the depth and range that de Armas can bring to a role — which she deserves to showcase in a project more worthy of her talents. Watch on Netflix

Catalina Sandino Moreno on ‘From' fan theories: ‘Whenever you think that you're in the right lane, you're not'
From star Catalina Sandino Moreno is completely in the dark about the show's mythology and story arcs. "Season 3 finished in such a way that it just opened up so many doors, and you don't know where the story is going to go," she tells Gold Derby. "I have no idea where my character is going to go. I'm very curious. I've asked [creator] John [Griffin] and [producers] Jack [Bender] and Jeff [Pinkner]. I'm like, 'Just give me a little,' and they're like, 'Nope,'" she continues. "Well, we just have to wait and see what's going to happen. They're very secretive, as they usually are. Even in Season 4, they're not giving any crumbs." More from GoldDerby 'Wicked: For Good' trailer teases more monkeys, a wedding, and Dorothy Walton Goggins and Aimee Lou Wood: The debunked 'White Lotus' feud explained Justine Lupe on the unexpected chemistries that power Netflix's 'Nobody Wants This' The horror drama is set in a decaying old ghost town in middle America that appears to be under the control of an unknown malevolent force that traps anyone who arrives. The unwilling residents struggle to stay alive while plagued by nocturnal creatures lurking in the surrounding forest, as they search for secrets hidden within the town and beyond, in the hope of finding a way out. Oscar nominee Sandino Moreno (Maria Full of Grace) stars as Tabitha Matthews alongside onscreen husband Eion Bailey as Jim Matthews, and Lost alum Harold Perrineau, who plays Boyd Stevens, the town's self-appointed sheriff and de-facto mayor of the ramshackle town of terrified survivors. The series' large ensemble cast includes Hannah Cheramy, Simon Webster, David Alpay, Elizabeth Saunders, Scott McCord, and Ricky He, who are all forced to live as a community of strangers desperate to escape. SEE After jaw-dropping Season 3 finale, 'From' star Harold Perrineau warns that 'you can fall in love with a character,' but no one is ever safe! The series began in Season 1 with the arrival of the Matthews family, who soon discover they are mysteriously trapped in the town with no apparent escape. Tabitha, still grieving the death of their youngest child, experiences and witnesses numerous horrors throughout the first two seasons. Her ordeal intensifies in the latest season as she uncovers more about the town's sinister secrets, her own crucial connection to the malevolent creatures and the mysterious force possibly controlling them, and perhaps a way to finally escape the nightmare that has engulfed her and her family. By the Season 3 finale, it's revealed that Tabitha and Jade (Alpay) are reincarnations of Miranda and Christopher, key figures from the town's past who once tried, and failed, to save the town's children from an evil force. Their return suggests a recurring cycle in which they're fated to confront the town's evil again. This connection resurfaces when they play a specific melody on Miranda's violin, summoning the mysterious children in white who whisper "anghkhooey," meaning "remember," a moment that unlocks memories of their past lives and cements their renewed purpose. Tabitha also envisions a daughter that she and Jade once had in a past life, adding emotional weight to their mission. These revelations deepen their bond and clarify their roles in the battle to break the cycle, unravel the town's curse, and free its inhabitants once and for all. "That was a huge thing for me, because they didn't tell me that I was the reincarnation of Miranda. That's why I'm so confused about what's going to happen next season," Sandino Moreno says. "I love the relationship between Tabitha and Jade, for the mere reason that Tabitha is married to someone that is very logical, and he sees everything within those eyes, unlike Jade, who is a believer,' she explains. 'Jim is very rational, and she wants to rationalize everything that happens with her, like when she went down the tunnels, and she sees all the monsters, she comes out and is like, 'I saw the monsters,' and he's like, 'Well, did you really? Maybe they were not there. Maybe they're playing with our brains.' He sees what's happening in town so different from what she feels that is happening. And I feel that's the connection between Jade and Tabitha that they see their world the same. And I can't wait to see how are they going to develop this season because they have a lot of similarities in how they see the world." From is MGM+'s most successful series to date following its strong third season, with surging viewership numbers and deafening social media buzz. Ahead of the Season 3 finale that aired last fall, the network demonstrated its confidence in the show's future, handing it an early renewal, with production on Season 4 set to begin later this year for a 2026 premiere. Fans have been buzzing about where the show is headed next season, with theories spreading online about the various storylines that have been teased over three seasons, picking apart every potential clue and easter egg along the way. Asked if she has any theories of her own, the actor says she doesn't even try to guess anymore. "I don't do theories I don't understand. I have a 16-year-old, and he was watching and he's like, 'What about this and this and this?' and I'm like, 'Oh, my God, you're right, maybe,'" she says with a smile. "And then, when we did Season 2, I turned to him and said, 'We're not going to do this again, we failed miserably,''" she says, adding that "whenever you think that you're in the right lane, you're not!" Sandino Moreno is happy to leave that to the show's mastermind creator and showrunner, noting that he has planned out the show's entire plot, and will keep the show's secrets close to his chest until they're revealed in future episodes. "John knows how the show is going to end. He has it very, very clear. He knows the whole folklore about the kids and the stones and the tree, all of it. But he doesn't want to share with anyone!'
