7 Best Movies You Can't Miss, Leaving Netflix in October 2023

Sadly, all good things must come to an end. Like the best other streaming services, Netflix delivers new movies and shows every month while phasing out others from its constantly fluctuating library. But while dozens of movies will soon leave Netflix, there is still time to catch these great films before they are gone. [From classic comedies like "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" and "Coming to America" to one of the greatest love stories of all time, "Pride and Prejudice," to the shocking heist film that made Quentin Tarantino a household name, "Reservoir Dogs," 2023 Here's a roundup of films leaving streaming giant Netflix in October.

Some of these films may still be available on other streaming platforms after October. And eventually, these films may reappear on Netflix. That's anyone's guess. Until then, why not make the most of your subscription period by re-watching your favorites and checking out the blockbusters that are being talked about.

So here are some films to watch before you leave Netflix in October 2023.

Legendary teen comedy director John Hughes' masterpiece "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" is especially good for a rewatch when you're feeling stuck in the daily grind of work and school. In the film, high school senior Ferris Buhler (Matthew Broderick) is a mischievous, innocent slacker who does all sorts of elaborate things to skip school. He invites his best friend Cameron (Alan Ruck) and girlfriend Sloane (Mia Sara) to join him on the sly, and the three embark on an adventure in downtown Chicago, crashing a parade, doing bad things, and annoying Ferris's nemesis, high school principal Ed Rooney (Jeffrey Jones) Ferris' nemesis, high school principal Ed Rooney (Jeffrey Jones). Soon, the race is on for Ferris to get home before his parents, sister, and Mr. Rooney learn of his absence.

As someone who didn't grow up on Peter Sellers' "Pink Panther" movies, I'm not sure how this compares to the bumbling but good-hearted Captain Jack Clouseau, played by Steve Martin. I can say, however, that Martin is hilarious in this reboot of the franchise.

This time, the accident-prone inspector sets out to solve the murder of a famous soccer coach and recover the stolen Pink Panther diamond. With slapstick humor, a smart script, and Martin's (intentionally) ridiculously lame French accent, the film is as haphazard as you'd expect.

Director Joe Wright's adaptation of Jane Austen's popular 1813 novel is credited with introducing a new generation to the timeless love story of Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy. The adaptation also starred a young Keira Knightley, and the British actress was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress at the tender age of 20. [To this day, "Pride and Prejudice" is a timeless story, weaving a compelling narrative around Elizabeth (Knightley), a spirited young woman in 18th century England who is under pressure from her family to marry into high society to secure a better future. When she meets the dashing Mr. Darcy (Matthew Macfadyen), an unlikely and undeniable connection develops between the two. But just as the budding romance begins to blossom, the two face numerous challenges.

Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs is a heist movie without a heist, and that's kind of the point. Without showing who did what and how it went down, the audience is left clueless, as is the criminal group at the center of the film's nonlinear narrative.

Six strangers unite to carry out an armed robbery at a diamond warehouse. What should have been an easy job soon turns into a bloody shootout when the cops show up, killing two of the perpetrators. The remaining four meet up at a rendezvous point and deduce that someone must have tipped off the police. Paranoia begins to set in and tension builds amidst the great shouting match.

"Coming to America" is Eddie Murphy's masterful comedy. In one of Murphy's most iconic characters, he plays Akeem Joffer, the crown prince of the fictional African nation of Zamunda. Frustrated by his arranged marriage, he travels to New York City in search of a soul mate who will love him for who he is, not for his status or wealth.

While renting an apartment in Queens, Akeem's journey to find a bride becomes a hilarious journey filled with slapstick humor. The film's enduring fame was so great that a sequel was eventually released in 2021 via Prime Video.
