It’s always nice when Netflix gets a full collection of movies and that will be the case with two franchises in March 2023 with the best ones, in our opinion, being The Hangover movies (the other being the Riddick franchise coming mid-month).

From 2009 to 2013, the Hangover trilogy of movies, all directed by Todd Phillips, have become iconic with so many noteworthy moments.

For those unfamiliar, the first Hangover movie is about three friends who wake up the night after a wild event in Las Vegas with very little recollection of the night before and have to retrace their steps to find out exactly what they did. .

Fortunately, we will get the second Kick ass movie in the middle of the month and while it’s not as good as the first one, it’s still a fun comedy.

Jeff Wadlow directs with Chloë Grace Moretz as the Hit Girl and Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Kick-Ass.
