Netflix has unveiled a slate of exciting movie titles coming on the platform this January. From drama to romance, action and even documentaries, the streaming giant is leaving no genre out this month. Titles such as Adire, Merry Men 3: Nemesis and Dinner are out from January 12, 18 and 24th of the month.
Adire tells the story of a sex-worker-turned-entrepreneur who moves to a small town and launches her own lingerie business, only to draw the ire of a preacher’s wife. While Merry Men 3 sees a group of affluent men seek vengeance against the ones they believe are responsible, following a tragic death.
In Dinner, two old friends and their partners gather for a celebratory meal, where a fifth guest stirs up secrets that threaten to bring down both relationships. Viewers can also catch Good Grief, a riveting tale about an artist grieving the loss of his beloved writer husband who takes his two best friends on a trip to Paris, where they unpack messy secrets and hard truths.
To end the month on a spectacular note, viewers can see Alexander the Great on the 31st on the streaming platform. This docudrama combines expert interviews with gripping reenactments to explore the life of Alexander the Great through his conquest of the Persian Empire. There are other titles currently available for viewing on the platform.
This includes Ijogbon, The Black Book, and The One for Sarah, and The Rise of Igbinogun. In Ijogbon, four teenagers from a rural village in South–West Nigeria stumble upon a pouch of uncut diamonds — but before long; others come looking for the bounty.
While in The Black Book a bereaved deacon takes justice into his own hands and fights a corrupt police gang to absolve him after his son is framed for a kidnapping.
In The One for Sarah, a fashion designer who goes on a quest to regain her self-worth takes a few twisty turns through a series of relationships while recovering from trauma. The Rise of Igbinogun sees a warrior become a legend among the people when she steals from the rich to empower the poor despite incurring the fury of the king’s guards.
