We have rounded up some of the best options on Netflix for this Father's Day that you can binge on, while bonding with your daddy dearest.

The Judge

Sometimes living up to your dad’s legacy can be a big weight to carry. The Judge follows a shady lawyer Hank Palmer, who is caught up in the trial of his judge father who’s facing hit-and-run charges. The son defends his father, trying to save not just him from going to prison, but also their relationship. If you ever struggled to fulfil your dad’s expectations, this movie is for you.

Definitely, maybe

As her parents get ready for a divorce, a 10-year-old girl (Abigail Breslin) asks her dad (Ryan Reynolds) how he met her mom. His stories lead to a trip down memory lane strengthening their bond and giving a second chance to their family.

The Pursuit of Happyness

Will Smith and his real-life son Jaden star in this true story of a struggling single father who dreams of a better life. After finding themselves homeless, Will’s character risks everything when he lands an unpaid internship at a competitive stockbroker company that has the potential to change their lives.

Daddy’s Home

Radio executive Brad Taggart (Will Ferrell) attempts to be a good father to his stepchildren but his problems increase multifold when their biological father, Dusty Mayron (Mark Wahlberg), suddenly comes back into their lives. Wahlberg and Ferrell battle it out to see who's the better father in this hilarious comedy that dramatises the dad vs stepdad relationship that sometimes exists in blended families.

The Week Of

Comedy legends Chris Rock and Adam Sandler share screen in this feel-good flick about two loving fathers who frantically prepare in the week leading to their children's wedding. While they don't agree on everything, a series of mishaps forces them to work together and make sure everything goes well.

Despicable Me

An unexpected addition to the list? But, we think that Gru is one of the most loving and caring dads we have seen on screen. Despicable Me is certifiably one of the most loved children's films with Steve Carell voicing supervillain Gru, who's out to steal the moon. The only hitch in his plan comes in the form of three cute orphan girls who Gru adopts and his life changes forever (but not his villainous plans).
