The 10 Best Movies Leaving Netflix In December 2021

As 2021 comes to a close, it’s time to reflect back on our past resolutions for the year. Maybe you decided to exercise more, or read a certain number of books. Or perhaps as you were scrolling through Netflix, you vowed to watch that one movie that you’d never gotten around to seeing. But Netflix is notorious for swapping out its titles every few months, and who can blame them? It’s how they keep their ever-rotating library of content fresh. Not to mention, the complications of streaming licenses and contracts make it difficult to keep movies around on the platform forever.

Now, if a movie is a Netflix-produced title, it will always be available for streaming. But what about less recent films that were made before Netflix even existed? These movies can always disappear from the platform at the end of any given month. But where do they go? While it seems like they just disappear into some digital ether, many popular titles will end up on another streaming service eventually — but there’s no guarantees. Luckily, Netflix gives viewers a heads-up so they can binge-watch their favorite titles before they leave the platform.

Below, you’ll find ten great movies that are sadly departing Netflix at the end of the month. The good news? You have plenty of time to watch all of them, if you’d like — or just the ones that catch your eye. Heck, maybe you’ve seen all of them and just want to rewatch them before they bid Netflix adieu.
