10 Great Movies Leaving Netflix At The End Of October

This past weekend, a number of new movies and shows were added to NetflixNFLX
. It’s all part of Netflix’s constantly revolving rotation of content, which changes from day to day, week to week, month to month. There’s always new movies to choose from on the world’s most popular streaming service.

But as a result of that constant rotation, several movies leave Netflix as well. Some movies exit the streaming platform on random days of the month, but most of them expire on the month’s final day—and October is no exception. Once the month ends, dozens of different movies will disappear from Netflix.

So which movies won’t be available soon? I’ve picked out ten great ones that you don’t want to miss before they disappear come November 1.
