Ranking May 2018's Movies From Worst To Best

7. Ibiza

RottenTomatoes Score: 73% (6.6/10)

Box Office: Ibiza went straight to Netflix.

Verdict: Netflix's own-brand comedies have been pretty rough as of late, so it's refreshing to see one that largely hits the mark, taking a pretty conventional rom-com formula and playing it terrifically off the central trio of women - Gillian Jacobs, Vanessa Bayer and Phoebe Robinson - while actually also being written by a woman, Lauryn Kahn.

It's not saying anything profound, but it is a fun time thanks to the infectious leads, sharp cinematography and snappy pace. The serious elements don't gel that well with the more vulgar and outlandish ones, but Vanessa Bayer in particular is a real delight, and it's basically just a fun, easy time.

No classic, but a solid addition to Netflix's library.
