5 Netflix Movies with Bad Descriptions
Netflix

Netflix is the perfect place to binge watch TV shows and watch all different types of movies. However, Netflix does not always do their content justice when it comes to movie descriptions. Here is a list of ten movies who's actual content is way better than their description.

1. Tiger House

Tiger house is about a teenager who is not so loved by her boyfriend's parents. One night when she sneaks into see him, they are interrupted by a group of robbers. It is then up to her to get herself and her boyfriend's family out alive.


2.Circle

The rating on this movie is low, and the description is vague, but the movie is overall way better than it would originally appear. A group of 50 individuals are taken by aliens and forced to decide who lives and who dies. Only one person can make it out, who will it be?

3. A Girl Like Her

Ratings are very high on this movie but the description is a little dramatic and off key for the actual plot. It is a very good movie, but not so much about revenge, as written in the description. A young girl is bullied in school and attempts suicide. After the girl's failed attempt, a reporter tries to get to the bottom of how this could have happened.

4.Take Care

This movie is humorous and romantic. A New Yorker is forced to call her ex after getting hit by a car. She took care of him for two years while he battled cancer, and now it is his turn to help. The problem? He has a girlfriend who is not to thrilled about this plan.

5. Standing Up

Standing Up is a movie about two kids who were subject to a mean prank at camp. Instead of going back to all of the harassment, they decide to take off into the woods and wait for their parents. They both grow stronger in the process and develop a strong bond as well.

Hopefully with these new descriptions, more people will be willing to watch these movies and then enjoy them as much as others do. There are a ton of movies on Netflix that have vague or unlikely descriptions or low ratings, but you can find a gem in between the rocks if you just give some a try.

Also make sure to keep a look out on the "Titles Leaving Soon" page on Netflix. There is a possible 400 titles that will expire in June due to the expiration of the Miramax contract. The viewers never know if these movies are being taken off or not because it sometimes changes last minute, as it did in May. Make sure you check it out, look up the movies on Netflix, and remember to not always trust their shady descriptions! Instead, look it up on google or just go for it!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
