One thing is certain about this month’s selection of original movies on Netflix: They aren’t Oscar bait. Back in Action is an action comedy that’s purely a crowd-pleaser, but Netflix thrives on films like that. It’s the equivalent of having a modest box office hit that suddenly shows up in your Netflix feed.
Our other pick for the month, Don’t Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever, is a documentary about Bryan Johnson, a man who has taken some very aggressive steps to lengthen his life. What Johnson —and by extension, the viewers and the filmmakers — probably didn’t expect is that the movie underlines the personal cost of his quest beyond the money that he invested in himself.
