New Netflix movies: the biggest films to stream in February 2025

After a surprising lull on the new Netflix movies front over the past two weeks, February is here to kick the streaming titan's Original Movie line-up back into gear. Until now, Netflix hadn't released any new movies since Back in Action on January 17. So, it's high time for some new films to land on the service.

Based on the reception that its latest in-house film – Kinda Pregnant – has received, though, maybe it shouldn't have bothered. Still, there are a couple of more positively reviewed films to read about in this guide, so don't leave just yet! If none of the below are of interest, you can always read our best Netflix movies guide to find something else to watch on the world's best streaming service.

Kinda Pregnant | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Watch On.

Cast: Amy Schumer, Jillian Bell, Will Forte, Damon Wayans Jr., Brianne Howey, Alex Moffat, Joel David Moore, Lizze Broadway, Urzila Carlson, and Francis Benhamou.

Here's a new movie that Netflix shouldn't have given life to. Kinda Pregnant stars Amy Schumer as Lainy, a singleton who becomes jealous of her best friend's pregnancy. In a bid to start garnering attention from any and all people who'll give it to her, Lainy starts wearing a prosthetic bump – and it works. Well, until she meets the man of her dreams and her little white lie starts to spin out of control.

You know what you're going to get from a Netflix comedy film like this, but even those who enjoy this kind of sloppy genre fare can see it's an abomination of a movie. Steer well clear and let it waddle off into the ether where no-one will ever see it again.

Back in Action | Jamie Foxx, Cameron Diaz | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Watch On.

Cast: Jamie Foxx, Cameron Diaz, Kyle Chandler, Andrew Scott, Jamie Demetriou, McKenna Roberts, Rylan Jackson, and Glenn Close.

Cameron Diaz reportedly came out of acting retirement to star in Netflix's first big-budget film of 2025. She shouldn't have bothered. Back in Action has been panned by critics (general audiences don't seem to like it that much, either), with one reviewer even saying it's a "bad movie by any standard". Ouch!

For anyone who might be interested in checking it out: Diaz and Foxx play Emily and Matt, two CIA agents who gave up their careers to start a family. However, when their cover is blown by enemies from their past, the married couple are forced to re-enter the murky world of espionage to keep themselves and their kids safe. To me, Back in Action sounds like another schlocky, by-the-numbers Netflix Original that's anything but original.

Bank of Dave 2: The Loan Ranger | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Watch On.

Cast: Rory Kinnear, Chrissy Metz, Rob Delaney, Jo Hartley, Amit Shah, Def Leppard, Pearce Quigley, Leila Farzad, Dan Fogler.

The follow-up to one of Netflix's surprise 2023 hits, Bank of Dave 2: The Loan Ranger reunites us with the titular, altruistic millionaire (played by The Rings of Power and James Bond actor Rory Kinnear) who set up a community bank in the town of Burnley, UK to help its local businesses to thrive. This time around, Dave has to contend with the threat of payday loan companies as he attempts to help keep Burnley's population safe from these predatory corporations.

Bank of Dave 2 won't win any awards, nor will it be incredibly popular with Netflix's global userbase. Nonetheless, its heart-warming story, relatable characters, and quintessentially British humor are sure to make it a worthwhile sequel to its highly-rated forebear.

Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Watch On.

Release date: January 3 (available on BBC iPlayer in the UK).

Cast: Ben Whitehead, Peter Kay, Lauren Patel, and Reece Shearsmith.

Director: Nic Park and Merlin Crossingham.

RT score: 100% (critics); 92% (audience).

Everyone's favorite claymation pairing are back for another feature film-based adventure. That's right, bumbling inventor Wallace and his loyal canine companion Gromit have returned for another misadventure – one that sees the animated British icons battling returning for Feathers McGraw when the latter reprograms Wallace's latest creation in an attempt to steal the infamous Blue Diamond once more.

As a huge fan of Wallace and Gromit, I've been eagerly awaiting Vengeance Most Fowl's arrival – and it didn't disappoint me when I watched it on BBC One in the UK on Christmas Day. It's laugh out loud funny, quintessentially British in its makeup, wonderfully animated, and incredibly family friendly, especially with regards to its breezy 80-minute runtime. The first of many great new Netflix movies that'll surely arrive this year.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: price, cameras, specs, Galaxy AI upgrades, and more

What is it? Samsung's new flagship phone.

Samsung's new flagship phone When is it out? Now – it began shipping on February 7.

Now – it began shipping on February 7 How much will it cost? It starts at $1,299 / £1,249 / AU$2,149.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra has arrived. It was revealed at the first Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event of 2025, on January 22, and brings in a small selection of upgrades and design tweaks to the already impressive Galaxy S24 Ultra.

For our full verdict on Samsung's latest flagship, check out our Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra review, in which we describe the Ultra as "a fantastic mix [of capabilities] that will please the most ardent Android, Samsung, and Google Gemini fans."

If, however, you're after an at-a-glance look at the Galaxy S25 Ultra, you've come to the right place. Below, we've rounded up everything you need to know about the new phone, from its price, cameras, and specs to new Galaxy AI upgrades.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra review: The Ultimate Android - YouTube Watch On.

Pricing is mostly in line with the Galaxy S24 Ultra.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra was presented at Galaxy Unpacked on January 22 and began shipping to buyers on February 7.

It starts at $1,299 / £1,249 / AU$2,149 for the 256GB model, with that price rising to $1,419 / £1,349 / AU$2,349 for the 512GB model and $1,659 / £1,549 / AU$2,749 for the 1TB model. For the latest offers, , which includes deals on the Ultra, specifically.

For comparison, the Galaxy S24 Ultra launched at $1,299 / £1,249 / AU$2,199 for the 256GB model, $1,379 / £1,399 / AU$2,249 for the 512GB version, and $1,619 / £1,599 / AU$2,649. So, depending on the model you go for, the S25 Ultra is slightly more expensive in the US and Australia, and slightly cheaper in the UK.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: design and display.

Glance quickly at the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and you’d be forgiven for thinking it was the S24 Ultra, as the two phones are broadly the same. But the Galaxy S25 Ultra now has flatter sides but more rounded edges, which more conforms with the design of the Galaxy S25 as a series.

The phone measures [website] x [website] x [website] and weighs 218g compared to the [website] x [website] x [website] and 232g of the S24 Ultra. I’d say these measurement and weight differentials are negligible, and the S25 Ultra felt very similar to its predecessor in my hands, though I found the flatter edges made it easier to grip than the S24 Ultra.

Despite being a slightly smaller phone, the Galaxy S25 Ultra manages to squeeze in a [website] QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, making it a smidge larger than the [website] display on the S24 Ultra. Otherwise, the screen has a 1Hz to 120Hz variable refresh rate and maximum of 2,600 nits of brightness, which is the same as before.

There’s a small ace up the S25 Ultra’s sleeve in that it supports a new ‘ProScaler’ feature that can upmix standard definition content to suit the high resolution of the QHD+ display. This could be a neat feature for people who like to watch old movies or have a clutch of standard definition video recordings.

Other small upgrades include an improved titanium chassis and Gorilla Armor 2 glass, the latter should make the S25 Ultra 29% less likely to fracture after a drop or nasty bump, apparently.

Color options come in Titanium Silver Blue, Titanium White Silver, Titanium Gray, and Titanium Black; all look nice enough but are perhaps a tad uninspired compared to the green and violet option of the S24 Ultra.

Overall, and from my experience, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is a rather lovely large phone. And I feel Samsung is taking the whole ‘if it isn't broken, don’t fix it’ approach here; it’s not exciting but it does make a lot of sense.

Same main and telephoto cameras as before.

New 'pro' aspects and an Audio Eraser for video.

On the cameras side, it’s mostly business as usual for the Galaxy S25 Ultra; there’s a 200-megapixel main camera, 50MP 5x telephoto camera, a 10MP 3x telephoto camera. But the ultra-wide camera gets a boost to 50MP, which should deliver crispier, more detailed expansive photos, and should also help with macro photography. The front-facing camera comes in at the expected 12MP.

The real changes will come from the new ProVisual Engine, which taps into the ‘spatio-temporal filter’ that’s -light situations.

There’s also support for 10-bit HDR photos for wider dynamic range, and more professional options to shoot photos and record video when using Pro modes and ExpertRAW. In the latter, there’s the option for a Virtual Aperture that lets you adjust the depth of field in a DSLR-like fashion, and for video there’s Galaxy Log, which offers more precise color grading.

Really, the bigger photography upgrades are more likely to come from the AI-powered image tools, because Samsung has used a new large language model to improve aspects such as Generative Edit, Portrait Studio, and boost overall image processing and performance; it’s my hope that this will solve the somewhat flat nature, with a lack of contrast between the shadows and light, of the photos the Galaxy S24 line – and indeed other flagship phones.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: specs and battery life.

New Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset.

Standard 12GB of RAM and 5,000mAh battery.

Swipe to scroll horizontally Header Cell - Column 0 Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Dimensions [website] x [website] x [website] Weight 218g OS One UI 7, based on Android 15 Display [website] AMOLED, 120Hz Chipset Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy RAM 12GB Storage 256GB / 512GB / 1TB Battery 5,000mAh Rear cameras 200MP main, 50MP ultra-wide, 10MP telephoto, 50MP telephoto Front camera 12MP Charging 45W wired, 15W wireless.

The real star of the specs show is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy.

Tuned for the Galaxy S25 series, this chipset offers a 40% uptick in neural processing power, which should be great for snappier Galaxy AI capabilities, a 37% bump in CPU power and a 30% jump in GPU performance; ray tracing gets a 40% boost here too.

When combined with a 40% larger vapour chamber cooling system, the Galaxy S25 Ultra should be a powerhouse and able to sustain that performance for longer.

My hope is it runs games and other graphically demanding tasks with ease and opens up the opportunity for new console-quality or powers of console games for Android; this is an area the recent iPhones have the edge.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: elements and AI.

AI is now baked into One UI and can work with third-party apps.

There's a new Now Brief AI-based activity summary feature.

Circle to Search and more have been improved.

In terms of general attributes, not much has changed with the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. There’s still an integrated S Pen, Bixby remains, as does DeX, and I’ve mentioned new attributes like the ProScaler.

But the real capabilities of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and indeed the other S25 models, will be how Galaxy AI has been baked into One UI to have a more ‘human agent’ approach with natural language understanding at its core. That means AI capabilities that can learn and react from what you do as a user, so information presented will be focused on what you want.

Furthermore, there’s what Samsung calls Cross Action Apps, meaning Galaxy AI capabilities can be used within third-party apps such as WhatsApp, while Bixby and Google Gemini have been enhanced to access all native Samsung and Google apps; you can get summaries of long YouTube videos, as one such example.

One key new AI feature is Now Brief, which acts as a widget that smartly pulls together summaries of what you’ve got on for the day, along with health-related information, weather, traffic for your commute route, reminders and so on, then as the day moves on it will give you a recap on your day’s activities and what you might have planned in the evening.

It also works with other Galaxy devices, such as pulling in information from the Galaxy Ring or Galaxy Watch. And if you have a Samsung smart TV, then the AI tech will be able to detect if you happen to fall asleep in front of the TV and then switch it off and pause what you were watching.

On top of this, there’s the Cooking Master, which uses AI to tell what’s in your smart fridge and serve up recipes. And keeping on the topic of food, the Restaurant Finder will smartly find you restaurants based on specific requirements, say pet-friendly places.

These aspects also work in tandem with the new Now Bar, which sits at the bottom of the screen and pulls in Now Brief data, but also can identify what songs might be playing and other situational information.

A lot of this AI functionality can now be triggered with a press and hold of the power button, which now triggers Google Gemini.

AI tools such as Circle to Search, sketch to image, searching for images in the Gallery app, along with call transcription and writing assisting aspects, have all had an upgrade. Plus there’s a new Audio Eraser tool that can smartly remove unwanted audio from videos; something we’ve seen in recent Google Pixel phones.

Navy, Icy Blue, Silver Shadow, and Mint colors.

[website] FHD+ AMOLED screen for the base model.

[website] QHD+ AMOLED screen for the Plus.

At first glance, the Galaxy S25 looks almost identical to the Galaxy S24, but there are some subtle differences. For starters, the camera rings on the back of the phone are much bolder than before – they’re almost Galaxy Z Fold 6 -like in appearance, and this design cue is shared across the entire Galaxy S25 range.

The Galaxy S25 is also 7% thinner and 5g lighter than its predecessor, measuring [website] x [website] x [website] and weighing 162g. The Plus, meanwhile, measures [website] x [website] x [website] and weighs 190g, meaning it too is thinner and lighter than the Galaxy S24 Plus.

Color options for both models include Navy, Icy Blue, Silver Shadow, and Mint, and both have an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance.

As for the Galaxy S25’s display, it’s the same [website] FHD+ AMOLED screen as before, which has a variable refresh rate of 1-120Hz and a peak brightness of 2,600 nits.

Significantly, the larger Plus model gets a [website] QHD+ AMOLED screen this year, and benefits from Samsung’s new ProScaler display technology, which supposedly delivers a 40% improvement in image quality courtesy of some neat AI image processing. The [website] Ultra boasts this new display technology, too, bringing more parity between Samsung’s largest Galaxy models.

50MP main, 12MP ultra-wide, 10MP telephoto cameras.

New Virtual Aperture feature and LOG recording.

The Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Plus share the same three rear cameras: a 50MP main lens (f/[website], a 12MP ultra-wide lens (f/[website], and a 10MP telephoto camera (f/[website] lens with 3x optical zoom. On the front, both phones get a 12MP camera (f/[website].

All four cameras are unchanged versus the cameras on the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24 Plus, though both new phones are capable of shooting in LOG (where their predecessors weren’t) and 10-bit HDR recording is now applied by default.

For a supposedly DSLR-like experience on mobile, the Galaxy S25 series also introduces depth-of-field control with Virtual Aperture, integrated into Expert RAW15. Professional photographers and video editors, then, have a lot to look forward to this year.

Samsung Galaxy S25: performance and software.

Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset.

New Galaxy AI elements including Audio Eraser.

The headline feature of the Galaxy 25 is its chipset: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy. As with last year’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy chipset, this SoC is an overclocked version of the same Snapdragon 8 Elite you’ll find powering other top-end Android phones like the OnePlus 13 and Honor Magic 7 Pro . Supposedly, then, the Galaxy S25 will be a slightly more powerful device than its similarly-specced rivals.

For the first time in a base-model Galaxy phone, this new chipset is joined by 12GB of RAM, meaning the Galaxy S25 and S25 Plus are just as powerful on paper as the S25 Ultra (which also uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and has 12GB of RAM).

There’s a larger vapor cooling chamber for both models, which should result in improved heat efficiency while gaming, and the phones’ minimum rated battery capacities are slightly higher, at 3,885mAh for the Galaxy S25 and 4,755mAh for Galaxy S25 Plus (Samsung is marketing the average capacities as 4,000mAh and 4,900mAh , respectively).

Of course, with great(er) power comes great(er) Galaxy AI capabilities. The Galaxy S25 series introduces several new software tricks, including Now Brief – a personalized daily briefing, delivered by Galaxy AI, that contains various handy stats like today’s weather and your personal Energy score. You can receive your daily Now Brief at any time of day, and if you choose to go for a later notification, you’ll get a recap of your “memorable moments” and an overview of how you performed against your daily activity goal.

Then there’s Audio Eraser, which is an AI-based video editing tool that – you guessed it – lets you remove unwanted audio from video clips. Galaxy AI can suggest which audio to remove, or you can pick and choose certain snippets yourself.

Samsung has also upgraded its Sketch to Image feature with text and voice input. You can now use real pictures as artistic inspiration, and even superimpose your real pictures onto artistic backgrounds. In addition, Sketch to Image will now simply function more quickly than before, which is something you can expect from all of Samsung’s existing Galaxy AI attributes on the Galaxy S25 series.

Some of these software aspects will remain , while others will ship as part of One UI 7 (and therefore become available to other phones at a later date).

Written by Written by Axel Metz Phones Editor.

As for whether the Galaxy S25 marks a monumental upgrade over the Galaxy S24, the answer is a resounding ‘no’. The phones’ designs, cameras, and displays (the Plus notwithstanding) are almost identical, and I suspect that you’re only going to notice the S25’s significant on-paper jump in performance if you’re an avid mobile gamer or photographer.

That noted, the upgrades on offer here aren’t inconsequential, especially in the software department. Working in tandem with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, the S25’s new 12GB RAM capacity should help all of Samsung’s new and existing Galaxy AI aspects run super smoothly – perhaps more smoothly than any other AI aspects on the market – and the made improvements to the phone’s size and weight (however small) are welcome.

Personally, I’m a fan of the new camera ring design, and it’s nice to see Samsung applying a consistent design philosophy across the Galaxy line. The new colors are nicer than last year’s, too, which sounds silly, but it’s crucial (just look at that Navy shade!).

The 24G42E with its [website] panel delivers a classic competitive gaming format, with the highest pixel density for extra sharpness.
