Wildlife (2018)

Directed by Paul Dano, Wildlife is one of the best movies on Netflix Canada which is quite powerful but soft at the same time. The movie plot is based on Richard Ford novel with the same name. Starring Carey Mulligan and Jake Gyllenhaal, the movie is about a couple who have a child and moves to a new town during the 1960s.

His wife is obviously worried and responds frantically to the events which implicate their parental behaviour on the kid. Although the movie lacks sudden turns and twists unlike other OTT platform movies, Wildlife will surely make you relate yourself with the movie and make you think about how sadness and decay fill in the life due to everyday events.
