This article is part of a regular series in which I review my favorite movies and shows that I streamed over the month. Check out my article from January to find out what else I've been watching in 2026.

Living in the UK, you have no idea how happy I am to bid farewell to the winter months and welcome spring with open arms. That said, the colder evenings meant that a lot of new movies and TV shows made their way into my Letterboxd diary in February.

It's been another busy month working through my watchlist, largely thanks to my relationship with the best streaming services getting better — I'm slowly becoming more decisive, yay! But I'm also finding myself watching more TV shows than ever before. Last month, Heated Rivalry and Euphoria were among my favorite shows, and I kept this up for February, with Netflix's juicy America's Next Top Model docuseries and comedy-thriller How to Get to Heaven from Belfast.

But this didn't get in the way of my love for movies, and I managed to catch some titles I will remember for a long time, mainly the BAFTA-nominated comedy-drama The Ballad of Wallis Island (2025), which I urge you to stream if you haven't already.

Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model (2026)

Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Watch On

Directors: Mor Loushy & Daniel SivanAge rating: TV-MARuntime: ~ 60 minute episodes Where to stream: Netflix (US, UK & AU)

When it was announced that a tell-all docuseries about one of the most iconic, yet highly controversial reality shows was coming to Netflix, you can imagine how hyped I was.

As soon as Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model dropped, I rushed to catch its first episode, but it was so entertaining and I sped through all three episodes in one sitting. By now, I've watched it twice, but I'm still not surprised that Tyra Banks takes no accountability whatsoever.

Across three in-depth episodes, the OG judges and former contestants dissect everything about the phenomenon that was America's Next Top Model. From the show's conception, to controversial production choices, and conflict on the judging panel, no stone is left unturned.

I Love LA (2025)

I Love LA | Official Trailer | HBO Max - YouTube I Love LA | Official Trailer | HBO Max - YouTube Watch On

Creator: Rachel SennottAge rating: TV-MARuntime: ~ 30 minute episodes Where to stream: HBO Max (US); Now TV (UK); HBO Max (AU)

As a self-proclaimed Rachel Sennott obsessive, I'm quite embarrassed to say I was a little late to the I Love LA hype, but now that I've binged the whole thing I can't stop talking about the new HBO Max show — and I'm beyond excited for season two.

Talent agent Maia (Sennott) has everything she's wanted out of a life in LA, but her lack of clients is what's holding her back from progressing in her job. When her ex-best friend Tallulah (Odessa A'zion) lands in LA after living as a successful New York influencer, Maia learns that Tallulah is going through professional struggles. With Maia in need of clients and Tallulah a rebranding, the two team up as manager and client, leading them down a road of events that shake up their professional and personal lives.

How to Get to Heaven from Belfast (2026)

How to Get to Heaven from Belfast | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube How to Get to Heaven from Belfast | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Watch On

Creator: Lisa McGeeAge rating: RRuntime: 130 minutesWhere to stream: Netflix (US, UK & AU)

From the creator and writer behind one of the best modern sitcoms Derry Girls, How to Get to Heaven from Belfast adopts a similar comedic style which you can always rely on. That said, it's a big departure for Lisa McGee, who blends her quintessentially-Irish humor into the crime-thriller genre.

Ever since their school days, friends Robyn (Sinéad Keenan), Dara (Caoilfhionn Dunne), and Saoirse (Roisin Gallagher) have been close, but their lives take a left turn when they learn of the death of their estranged friend Greta (Natasha O'Keeffe). Thrust into a series of near-death events, the three remaining friends unravel the truth behind Greta's untimely death, and the dark secrets she kept from them when they were younger.

The Ballad of Wallis Island (2025)

THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND - Official Trailer [HD] - Only in Theaters March 28 - YouTube THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND - Official Trailer [HD] - Only in Theaters March 28 - YouTube Watch On

Director: James Griffiths Age rating: PG-13Runtime: 100 minutesWhere to stream: Prime Video (US); Now TV (UK)

Another title that's quintessential to its national setting, Griffith's comedy-drama will no doubt be considered a British classic in the years to come, but it's writers Tim Key and Tom Basden who are responsible for the movie's wholesome message. Basically, if Sunday was a film, this is exactly what it would look like.

Living alone on a remote island off the coast of Wales, humble man and lottery winner Charles (Key) dreams of reuniting his favorite folk duo McGwyer Mortimer (Basden and Carey Mulligan) for his own personal gig. He uses his fortune to hire them for a one-off show, but the two have been estranged for nine years following their break-up. As the two singers revisit their past, they come to learn that Charles is more than just a fan, but has his own struggles and hardships that he hopes to move on from with the help of their music.

Room (2015)

Room | Official Trailer HD | A24 - YouTube Room | Official Trailer HD | A24 - YouTube Watch On

Director: Lenny AbrahamsonAge rating: RRuntime: 118 minutesWhere to stream: Hulu (US); Netflix (UK); Prime Video, Stan (AU)

Speaking of Sunday films, Lenny Abrahamson's Oscar-winning drama Room is perfect for a lazy end to the week — although I will say it's quite a heavy watch. It's not for the faint of heart, but it's a powerful story of never letting go of hope. If you haven't seen this one before allow me to brief you:

After being held captive and abused for seven years, Joy (Brie Larson) and her five year-old son Jack (Jacob Tremblay), who was born in captivity, spend their days locked in a small 10x10 space, which Joy refers to as 'Room'. With no means of escaping, she creates an entire universe within the 'Room' for Jack, who's oblivious to the real world outside of his four walls. When she decides that Jack is growing too old to be kept in the dark, she hatches a plan to escape.

One of Them Days (2025)

ONE OF THEM DAYS - Official Trailer (HD) - YouTube ONE OF THEM DAYS - Official Trailer (HD) - YouTube Watch On

Director: Lawrence Lamont Age rating: RRuntime: 97 minutesWhere to stream: Netflix (US); Now TV (UK); Prime Video (AU)

On a more light-hearted note, One of Them Days is ridiculous and absurd in every manner, and though it's pacing is a little strange at first, trust me, it gets better. As far as buddy comedies go, it's definitely one of the strongest ones I've seen in recent years, and I have Keke Palmer to thank for that.

Best friends and roommates Dreux (Palmer) and Alyssa (SZA) are about to run into a financial nightmare. Already late with rent payments, the two learn that their rent money has been blown by Alyssa's boyfriend, who has made a run for it. Now that eviction is in sight, the two find themselves caught in a race-against-the-clock journey, facing a series of chaotic events in order to make back their rent money before they become homeless.

Sing Sing (2023)

Sing Sing | Official Trailer HD | A24 - YouTube Sing Sing | Official Trailer HD | A24 - YouTube Watch On

Director: Greg KwedarAge rating: RRuntime: 105 minutesWhere to stream: HBO Max (US); Prime Video (UK); Stan (AU)

I'm happy to say that I'm getting much better when it comes to ticking movies off my watchlist, and Sing Sing was one of them. It's been gathering dust in my watchlist ever since it came to Prime Video shortly after its run of Oscar nominations, but that's no more.

Inspired by the Rehabilitation Through the Arts program at the real-life Sing Sing maximum security prison, Divine G (Colman Domingo) is incarcerated for a crime he didn't commit but spends his time acting in a theater group. When newcomer Divine Eye (played by real-life convict Clarence Maclin) joins the group to stage an original production, Divine G notices a soft and vulnerable interior beneath his brutish exterior, guiding him to unlock his full potential.

The movie is a powerful exploration of how the arts can have a lasting impact on oneself, and features a cast of real-life incarcerated men who were part of the same arts program.
