    What came back

    Claude Code (Claude Opus 5.5) sent back, word for word:

    I pulled Netflix US movies from JustWatch through Alexandria twice: once sorted by IMDb score, and once by what's trending now. The data is current as of today, Oct 20, 2026.

    My picks for tonight

    MovieIMDbRTRuntimeWhy
    The Prestige (2006)8.577%2h10The highest-rated movie that's also trending this week. A Nolan film about rival magicians that pays off at the end.
    Godzilla Minus One (2023)7.699%2h05Huge spectacle with a real emotional story. One of the best-reviewed films in the catalog.
    Heat (1995)8.384%2h50Pacino vs. De Niro, with a famous downtown shootout. Pick it if you have the whole evening.
    Aliens (1986) / Alien (1979)8.4 / 8.493% / —~2h eachBoth are on Netflix, and both are trending as Halloween nears. Alien is horror; Aliens is action.
    I'm Still Here (2024)8.197%2h16Oscar-winning Brazilian drama, and trending right now. Choose it if you want something moving.
    Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)8.4—1h57The safest pick for a group or family.
    Memento (2000)8.494%1h53Short and sharp. Good if you want a puzzle.

    For something spooky: Psycho (8.5, 97%, under 2 hours). For a fun one, Ready or Not (89% RT, 96 minutes). For something more intense, Green Room (90% RT) or 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (91% RT).

    Outside Hollywood: 12th Fail (8.7, 179k votes) and Laapataa Ladies (8.3, 100% RT) are both excellent Indian films. Grave of the Fireflies is a masterpiece, but too sad for a casual night.

    Trending, but I'd skip them: Sacrifice (5.0), The Storm (5.1), Blackout (3.9) and The Breadwinner (19% RT). They're popular right now, but reviewers don't rate them.

    The raw IMDb ranking puts a few things at the top that aren't really tonight's-movie options. The #1 entry, Wan Pîsu Fanretâ, is a 25-minute anime special. Others are documentaries or concert films with only a few hundred votes. I left those out and favoured films with lots of votes. JustWatch also didn't list a "leaving Netflix" date for any of these.

    If you can only watch one: The Prestige. If you want something lighter and shorter, Memento.
