The king of divorced dad rock is at the center of a new documentary, Hate to Love: "Nickelback," now on Netflix. The film follows the 25-year career of the Canadian rockers from rural Alberta to selling out packed stadiums. Their enduring success is a big middle finger to the band's outspoken haters, who have not stopped Nickelback from selling 50 million records, earning multiple Grammy nominations, and being inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.

But being one of the most controversial bands in music history is something Nickelback wears as a badge of honor. Featuring never-before-seen footage and lengthy interviews with members Chad Krueger, Ryan Peek, Mike Krueger, and Daniel Adare, this film is a must-see for Nickelback fans.

Netflix's best original film in years has held strong in the streaming top 10 since its debut earlier in the month. It has since dropped down to #8, but it's still worth a look if you haven't checked out Richard Linklater's sexy, nihilistic comedy thriller yet.

Somewhere between a breezy crime caper and a romantic comedy, "The Hitman" stars Glen Powell as Gary Johnson. He dons an elaborate array of costumes to convince his clients that he is a cold-blooded hitman before the police rush in to arrest him. But when a femme fatale (Adria Arjona) asks him to take care of her abusive husband, Gary breaks protocol. His desperate attempts to hide his true identity from her set off a chain reaction of theatrics, deception, and escalating stakes, with potentially deadly consequences.
