Top 10 Movies To Watch This Week on Netflix | July 27-August 2, 2025
So you’re stuck in scrolling purgatory again, huh? Endlessly thumbing through Netflix, hoping something jumps out. We’ve been there. That’s why we pulled together the Top 10 Movies you would actually want to watch this week—no fluff, no filler. Whether you’re into thrillers, rom-coms, or indie gems, there’s something worth hitting play on. Here’s your movie cheat sheet for July 27-August 2, 2025 —because your time is too valuable for another “meh” movie night. 1. Happy Gilmore (1996) Happy Gilmore can’t skate, can’t shoot, and can’t control his temper—but give him a golf club and an open course, and suddenly the guy’s unstoppable. Adam Sandler’s breakout sports comedy is pure chaos: a failed hockey player with a wicked slapshot and no filter goes all-in on the PGA Tour to save his grandma’s house. There’s a one-armed mentor (Carl Weathers), a furious rival (Shooter McGavin), and a price-is-right fistfight that lives in meme history. It’s crude, loud, endlessly quotable, and somehow still holds up. Watch it again for the nostalgia—or for the first time to see why it launched a franchise. 2. Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) He’s older. He’s angrier. He’s back. Happy Gilmore 2 finds our golf-swinging maniac returning to the green to help his daughter chase her own dream. But of course, the past shows up swinging—Shooter McGavin’s still lurking, and yes, there’s a new wave of chaos, cameos, and club-throwing tantrums. Sandler’s real-life daughter joins the cast, and the celebrity lineup is wild: Bad Bunny, Travis Kelce, even Eminem. It’s less about the plot, more about the spectacle—and the movie knows it. Is it dumb? Absolutely. But that’s part of the charm. 3. KPop Demon Hunters (2025) By day, they’re global pop icons. By night, they’re slaying demons with magic and choreography. Welcome to KPop Demon Hunters. This animated blast follows Rumi, Mira, and Zoey—three idols who drop stadium anthems and supernatural beatdowns with equal flair. When a demonic uprising threatens their fans, they don’t just dance through it—they go full girl group exorcist mode. The visuals are electric, the soundtrack slaps, and the messaging leans into empowerment without getting preachy. Kids will love the sparkle. Adults will catch the satire. It’s Sailor Moon meets BTS. You know you’re curious. 4. A Normal Woman (2025) A glamorous socialite. A strange illness. And a slow, terrifying loss of control. This Indonesian psychological thriller peels back layers of identity, vanity, and reputation as a mysterious disease threatens to unravel one woman’s perfect life. The worse she gets, the more secrets start to surface—and nothing is quite what it seems. It’s a slow burn, but the payoff hits. And Marissa Anita? She’s incredible. If you’re in the mood for something moody, stylish, and just a little unsettling, this one’s worth the tension. 5. Brick (2025) One morning, an entire apartment building wakes up to find a massive brick wall sealing them inside. No doors. No exits. Just bricks—and panic. This German thriller leans hard into claustrophobia and paranoia as neighbors scramble to escape, turning on each other when cooperation starts to crack. Think 10 Cloverfield Lane meets The Platform—with a European edge. It’s fast, creepy, and unsettling in all the right ways. You may never look at drywall the same again. 6. Wall to Wall (2025) Buying your dream apartment shouldn’t feel like a horror movie. But in Wall to Wall, it absolutely does. A man spends his life savings on a shiny new flat—only to find out the walls are thin, the neighbors are weird, and the place might be hiding something way worse than mold. Welcome to South Korea’s most stressful real estate thriller. It’s stylish, biting, and seriously tense. If Parasite and The Shining had a baby in Seoul, this would be it. 7. Lost on a Mountain in Maine (2024) Twelve-year-old Donn Fendler wanted to hike back to camp. He ended up lost in the Maine wilderness for nine days. And somehow? He survived. Based on a true story from 1939, Lost on a Mountain in Maine is less action spectacle, more emotional gut punch. It’s about fear, instinct, and a kid fighting through nature—and himself. It’s quiet, honest, and way more intense than you’d expect from a PG-rated survival film. Bring tissues. Maybe a compass. 8. Almost Family (2025) A Brazilian dad meets his daughter’s Argentine in-laws. What follows? Petty insults, cultural shade, and an escalating war over who’s more “family.” Almost Family is your classic in-law vacation comedy—now with international flair and a snow-covered trip to Bariloche. The dads square off. The kids roll their eyes. And yes, there’s a skiing accident. It’s broad, it’s goofy, and it’s not trying to win awards. But if you’re into family dysfunction with subtitles, it delivers. 9. The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023) Mario and Luigi are just two Brooklyn plumbers—until they fall through a pipe into a kingdom of talking mushrooms, angry turtles, and banana-throwing gorillas. The Super Mario Bros. Movie doesn’t reinvent the wheel—it just adds glitter, lava, and Jack Black singing about peaches. Chris Pratt voices Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy is Peach, and Seth Rogen shows up as a very chill Donkey Kong. It’s fast, loud, and packed with Easter eggs. If you’ve ever yelled at a blue shell, this one’s for you. 10. The Old Guard 2 (2025) Immortal warriors. New villains. Same trench coats. The Old Guard 2 brings Charlize Theron’s unkillable squad back for another round of globe-hopping action. There’s betrayal. Flashbacks. And a new enemy who might be more powerful than any of them. But here’s the thing: it kind of feels like setup for The Old Guard 3. The action hits, the cast is stacked—but it doesn’t quite land the emotional punch the first one had. If you loved part one, you’ll probably still show up. Just don’t expect all the answers. And That’s a Wrap There you have it—ten Netflix picks that cover everything from golf-club tantrums (Happy Gilmore 2) to K-pop idols slaying demons (KPop Demon Hunters). You’ve got throwback classics (Happy Gilmore), buzzy animation, haunted apartments, survival stories, and even Mario stomping on turtles like it’s 1986. Craving something international? Dive into South Korea’s apartment-from-hell thriller (Wall to Wall) or a cross-cultural family feud with Almost Family. Want something quieter? Lost on a Mountain in Maine will hit you right in the soul. And for the action junkies? Charlize Theron’s got you covered in The Old Guard 2. Whether you’re laughing, hiding behind the couch, or just riding the nostalgia wave, this week’s lineup is loaded. Open the app. Hit play. Embrace the binge.
Canucks Linked to 20-Goal Star Amid Maple Leafs Rumors
As the NHL offseason winds down, there are still a few quality players out on the free agent market. Teams have been finalizing their rosters for the new season, but there can always be room to add. One of the better names available is center Jack Roslovic, who played with the Carolina Hurricanes last season. Roslovic could bring real depth and scoring to any team, and it's a little strange why he remains unsigned at this point. The veteran has drawn interest from multiple teams around the NHL, with the Toronto Maple Leafs being one of the most talked-about. But NHL insider Frank Seravalli has now thrown another name into the hat: the Vancouver Canucks. Vancoyver has been busy this offseason putting its roster together, and it could use more depth across the board. Bringing back star Brock Boeser came as a surprise to many people around the league, but the Canucks want to go after a title. The team just barely missed the postseason last year, and the front office has been trying to bring more talent to the team. Adding a player like Roslovic to the mix could help the squad become even more dynamic out on the ice. Last season with the Hurricanes, Roslovic scored 22 goals and 17 assists on the year. His abilities along the lines for the Canucks could help this squad return to the postseason, and he can be a dangerous presence on the ice. It remains to be seen what Roslovic will do, but the Canucks could be an intriguing option. Roslovic is arguably the best free agent left on the market, so he will have some power in how things go down.
Raiders vs. 49ers Joint Practice Report: Who Performed Well, Who Struggled, and More
HENDERSON, Nev.—Today, the Las Vegas Raiders hosted the San Francisco 49ers for a joint practice, and it was an excellent session. In our latest episode of the Las Vegas Raiders Insider Podcast, we take you to joint practice today with the San Francisco 49ers to learn specific players who had big days, who struggled, and who may have cemented a roster spot. You can watch the entire podcast below. Head Coach Pete Carroll's leadership has been consistent since his arrival, and for a franchise searching for a winner, he has provided exactly what Raider Nation needed. After practice, Carroll addressed several questions, and below is a partial transcript of his responses. Head Coach Pete Carroll: Q: Did you get out of today what you were hoping for? Head Coach Pete Carroll: "Oh, exactly what I was thinking. Heck, I don't have any idea right now. I'm watching offense, I'm watching defense, I've got to see the film. I know everybody worked hard, it was great to get against these guys. They're skilled, and they do a lot of cool things, scheme-wise, attacks us and helps us learn. And so it was a totally positive experience. I thought Kyle [Shanahan] did a great job of managing their team and we tried to do the same, so that we didn't get issues, and all that, we avoided all that kind of stuff. So, it's just really classy work to get and we'll make evaluations and figure that out once we get a chance to watch the film, soon as they leave here." Q: It looked like Dont'e Thornton Jr. left early? Coach Carroll: "He fell and got hit in the head a little bit. I didn't think it was serious, but we just made sure." Q: There weren't any skirmishes, is that something you addressed prior to this morning? Coach Carroll: "Yes, that's exactly what both sides did. I know Kyle [Shanahan] did the same thing, wanted to make sure that's not part of what we're doing. It's not part of what we come here to do. We come here to play good football and get better. And I think both sides did a great job of showing that." Q: What do you think of the offensive line, how they went up against those guys? Coach Carroll: "I can't tell you; I haven't seen it enough. I was running back and forth, I can't tell you, I have no evaluation until I see the film." Q: What are you hoping to see when you do get a chance to take a deep dive? Coach Carroll: "Really good stuff. I mean, we're blowing them off the football. They can't make an inch. That didn't quite happen I know that, but I want to see us execute. We tried to treat this just like it's the next opportunity that we have and do stuff right. And that was what we set out to do. We'll find out. I thought on defense, the perimeter looked kind of available to them. They're a great perimeter team. We've not prepared for them at all and get a little bit better before the ballgame." Q: Your teams are always well coached, how good of a challenge is that for you to see a team kind of blindly and be able to react on the fly? Coach Carroll: "Robert Saleh and Gus Bradley are over there, and Kyle [Shanahan] has done a great job for years and years. They've got a terrific group, and that's only what we expect from them. They know what they're doing. They have control of their groups, they have style of play that always shows up, so that means they've got a real philosophy in mind and all that. That's why this is such quality work for us." Q: Can you talk about how fortunate this team is to have Jakobi Meyers on the roster? Coach Carroll: "He's so sure handed, so steady, so improvisational, that he can get himself open. With he and Brock [Bowers], it's tough to cover those two guys. And so, they complement each other in a great manner, but Jakobi [Meyers] has done a fantastic job every day we've come out here he's making plays." We'd appreciate it if you would follow us on X @HondoCarpenter and IG @HondoSr , and let’s talk about the Silver and Black’s training camp and Pete Carroll’s comments.
Vikings QB J.J. McCarthy makes bold statement about his arm after criticism
J.J. McCarthy is full of confidence in his second season with the Minnesota Vikings. The No. 10 pick in the 2024 draft had a clip of him throwing an interception to New England Patriots cornerback Marcus Jones go viral on Wednesday. Per Alec Lewis of The Athletic, McCarthy had issues with accuracy on multiple throws during the joint practice with the Patriots. On Thursday, McCarthy rebounded in his final opportunity to go against the New England defense, as he will not play in the preseason game on Saturday. Per Andrew Callahan of NBC Sports Boston, McCarthy carved up the Patriots on Thursday, going 14-of-16 for five touchdowns during 11-on-11 periods. Following the practice, McCarthy was asked in his news conference about his accuracy issues on Wednesday. He boldly told the media that he felt like he was one of the most accurate quarterbacks in the league. "I'm one of the most accurate guys out there," McCarthy said, via video from the Vikings. "And just being able to, you know, take it day to day and really hone in on just every single throw. It's not just, the ball was completed. It's did I give him runners ball? Did I put it on the right pad for him to turn a certain way? "Just being able to really lean into that as one of my strengths is something that I always have to be extremely hard on every single throw when you have a few throws like you." McCarthy, who missed his rookie season due to a torn meniscus in his right knee, will quickly find out how accurate he is when the regular season starts on Sept. 8 against the Chicago Bears on "Monday Night Football." The window he can throw into during the preseason becomes even smaller when the games count. In order for McCarthy to be successful in the league, he'll have to be accurate in the face of speedy defenses bringing pressure and guarding his targets on every snap.
