Happy Friday and welcome to a bumper day full of Netflix Originals. It’s one of the busiest Fridays we can remember for a while so let’s dive into what’s new on Netflix and what’s trending in the top 10s for January 28th, 2022.
This weekend is your last chance to watch a number of high-profile movies before they leave on February 1st. I’d also encourage you to give the 4-episode miniseries Retribution (also known as One of Us) a watch which expires on January 30th (Sunday). The British series is a crime mystery that sees a web of lies unspun after a newlywed couple are killed.
As always, you can find an expanded list of new releases on Netflix via our new on Netflix hub.
Also on our what’s new on Netflix section today we’ve released the first draft of the full list of movies Netflix has or is adding to the service in 2022.
