15 Best Netflix Original Movies Of 2020 (So Far)

6. The Lovebirds

Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjani are long overdue a vehicle for their considerable comedic talents, and the action comedy The Lovebirds proved a perfect candidate (and just in time, when the disappointing Coffee and Kareem mined similar territory for far fewer laughs).

Following a splintering couple who are drawn back together when they first witness and then are accused of committing a murder, this rom com on the lam is a funny, fast paced delight which plays to the talents of its pair of stars.

Directed by cult comedy icon/ Wet Hot American Summer hero Michael Showalter, this one is a must-watch for comedy nerds and general viewers alike.
