Rather than resist the temptation to couch-rot your way through the sunniest days of the year, why not give in to the urge and watch some of the coolest new movies the streamer manages to continuously add throughout June?
There’s something for everyone before the 4th of July, like charming 2026 rom-com Voicemails for Isabelle, a cross between Sleepless in Seattle and P.S. I Love You.
Watch With Us also recommends a more serious comedy, Drinking Buddies, starring Olivia Wilde and Anna Kendrick.

And for fans of totally f***ed up stories, take a look at Flowers in the Attic – you’ll never look at a doughnut or a pair of blond siblings the same way ever again.
Kate (Olivia Wilde) and Luke (Jake Johnson) have known each other for a long time – they joke, drink and share each other’s romantic highs and lows. When they go on a hiking trip with their respective partners, Kate and Luke grow closer – a little too close. Complicating matters even more is that Luke’s girlfriend, Jill (Anna Kendrick), kissed Kate’s boyfriend, Chris (Ron Livingston), while they were away. Will Kate and Luke finally act on their growing attraction to each other? Will Jill confess her near-infidelity to Luke and blow up their relationship?
Drinking Buddies is a romantic comedy that’s more serious – and realistic – than it first appears. While director Joe Swanberg mines most of the comedic opportunities his complicated romantic triangle square brings, he’s more interested in how these characters react to the possibility of cheating – and being cheated on. Turns out, it’s not so fun either way, and the film argues the best relationship is the one you have with a drinking buddy who you can confide in without sleeping with them. What a concept!
