We’re always updating our Netflix queue every month, but there’s something about those summer films that really gets us in the mood to kick back with a bomb face mask and spend some QT in the A/C. And in between the backyard cookouts and time spent at the pool, we’ll definitely be on the couch with this summery queue (after OINTB, of course).
