We’re nearing the half way mark for the summer season, which means we can expect 90 degree days and an abundance of sunshine. This can mean one of two things: you can grab a bottle of sun tan lotion and hit the beach, or you can relax in front of your nearest air conditioning unit and enjoy some cool titles that Netflix has to offer; and if you’re choice is the latter, this is a great month for it.
One of the most notable additions is Netflix’s highly-anticipated original crime drama, Narcos, which is inspired by the life of the infamous cocaine kingpin, Pablo Escobar and the notorious Medellin Cartel. Other welcomed additions include the multi-award winning military film, The Hurt Locker, as well as as Nicholas Cage playing a rule-based gun trafficker in Lord of War.
