The Breaker Upperers

Set in Auckland, NZ, this hilarious rom-com follows platonic, codependent, cynical besties (who only became friends when they learned that they were dating the same guy) and the agency they run together to help clients break up with their significant others, which usually involves some pretty unorthodox methods. The onscreen chemistry between writer-director-star duo Jackie van Beek and Madeleine Sami will make you wish that both the actress and their characters, Jen and Mel, were your BFFs IRL.

These 20 Netflix Original Movies From 2019 Are Seriously Works of Art

Let's be honest, guys - with all of the new original movies that Netflix releases every year, some of them are bound to be stinkers. (We're not pointing any fingers, but those movies know who they are.) However, among all of those ho-hum flicks are some incredible gems (Roma, anyone?), and 2019 has already delivered a few movies that deserve your immediate attention. With gorgeous movies hailing from Japan, China, Nigeria, New Zealand, Denmark, France, Senegal, Taiwan, and - of course - here in the US, Netflix's best may not be for a casual Sunday afternoon, but they're definitely worthy of your consideration.
