March is packed with an exciting mix of blockbuster remakes, mind-bending sci-fi, gripping thrillers, and heartwarming dramas. Whether you're heading to the cinema or streaming from home, here’s your ultimate guide to the must-watch films this month.
1. Disney’s Snow White (Cinemas – March 21)
Disney’s live-action remake of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs has already sparked controversy—from casting choices (Rachel Zegler as Snow White) to criticisms about the dwarves' portrayal ("backwards", according to Peter Dinklage). The trailer drew polarizing reactions, with some calling it "the ugliest thing ever committed to screen."
Yet, with new songs by La La Land’s Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, plus a screenplay co-written by Barbie’s Greta Gerwig, this modern retelling could still enchant audiences—or at least stir debate.
2. Death of a Unicorn (US – March 28 / UK – April 4)
A24 delivers another darkly satirical thriller—this time with a mythical twist. Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega play a father-daughter duo who accidentally hit a real unicorn with their car. The catch? A wealthy family (led by Richard E. Grant) wants to exploit its magical healing powers.
If you loved The Menu or Glass Onion, this bizarre, high-stakes drama is right up your alley.
3. Black Bag (Cinemas – March 14)
Steven Soderbergh’s latest spy thriller stars Cate Blanchett and Michael Fassbender as a married couple—who also happen to be undercover agents. When Blanchett’s character is accused of treason, Fassbender must investigate her.
With a cast including Pierce Brosnan, Naomie Harris, and Regé-Jean Page, Black Bag promises "Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? meets Mission: Impossible."
4. The Alto Knights (March 21 – US, UK, Canada, Ireland, Spain)
Robert De Niro pulls double duty in this crime saga, playing both rival mob bosses Frank Costello and Vito Genovese. Directed by Barry Levinson (Bugsy) and written by Goodfellas co-writer Nicholas Pileggi, this is a gangster flick with a twist—two De Niros for the price of one.
5. Mickey 17 (Cinemas – March 6)
From Parasite director Bong Joon Ho comes this sci-fi thriller starring Robert Pattinson as a disposable space laborer who keeps getting "reprinted" after death—until a glitch leaves two versions of him alive.
Critics are divided—some call it "delightful", others a "serious disappointment." Will it live up to Parasite’s legacy?
6. CHAOS: The Manson Murders (Netflix – March 7)
Errol Morris (The Thin Blue Line) explores the shocking conspiracy theories behind the Manson Family murders. Based on Tom O’Neill’s explosive book, this documentary questions possible CIA ties and government mind-control experiments linked to Manson.
A chilling deep dive into one of America’s most infamous crimes.
7. The Electric State (Netflix – March 14)
From the Russo brothers (Avengers: Endgame) comes this visually stunning sci-fi epic. Millie Bobby Brown stars as a teen searching for her brother in a war-torn world where exiled robots roam. Chris Pratt co-stars as a battle-hardened veteran.
Fans of the original novel may be divided—some characters are brand new, but the spectacle looks breathtaking.
8. The Penguin Lessons (US – March 28)
Steve Coogan stars in this heartwarming true story about a teacher in 1970s Argentina who adopts an oil-covered penguin—only for the bird to become his most unexpected life coach.
Think The Full Monty meets March of the Penguins.
9. The Friend (US – March 21)
Naomi Watts and Bill Murray star in this poignant drama about grief, friendship, and a massive Great Dane who mourns his owner more deeply than anyone else.
A bittersweet tale perfect for dog lovers and literary fans alike.
10. Misericordia (Spain – March 14 / US – March 21 / UK – March 28)
A seductive, eerie French thriller about a young man (Félix Kysyl) drawn into a small town’s dark secrets after his mentor’s death.
Fans of Stranger by the Lake will love this mix of murder, desire, and repression.
Final Verdict
From unicorn horror to mobster showdowns, March’s lineup offers something for everyone. Will you be catching Snow White in cinemas or diving into CHAOS on Netflix? One thing’s certain—this month’s films are anything but boring.
