Netflix's Top 10 has been pretty static in recent weeks, with the same handful of flicks taking the top spot for a few days. But that eventually changed because new movies are making their way to this constantly rotating ranking of movies that are getting the most attention from subscribers.

The most watched list on Netflix is a great place to start when you're looking for something to watch on a streaming service. However, it does not guarantee its quality. In fact, the really terrible comic book movie "Madame Web" is now Netflix's no.1 As someone who is in a movie and suffered through it in theaters, I strongly recommend skipping it. 

To help you find the gems, I'm picking the Netflix top 10 movies that deserve your viewing time. The list includes twisted mystery thrillers, AI-focused action films and family features that are awash with numbers of colors and music. Here's something for everyone. 

This article is based on the Netflix Top 5 as of Wednesday 22 2:45 a.m. ET as of 6:10 p.m. Also, if you need more top movies that can be streamed now, check out the list of 9 new movies to be delivered this week, including "Dune Part Two" and "Atlas"

A twisted crime thriller with comedy elements, "Simple Favors" Anna Kendrick is Stephanie, a widow who runs crafts and Cooking vlog. She plays a single mother. When she befriends the charming mother of her son's classmate, Emily (Blake Lively), the two instantly connect despite their differences. But when Emily mysteriously disappears without a trace, it's up to Stephanie to investigate. Along the way, she learns amazing secrets and discovers that Emily's perfect lifestyle isn't as perfect as it looks. 

Paul Feig's "A Simple Favor" is a seriously enjoyable film. It offers compelling mysteries and uncomplicated thrills at its core. Kendrick and Lively's performance is also excellent, and anyone with an eye to fashion can wear the outfit. If you're looking for a thriller that swaps the spreading darkness for a more vivid color palette, "simple favors" is a great option. Plus, now it's time to see the sequel coming.
