Leave No Trace is one of the best movies of the 21st century, and beats out Toy Story 2 as Rotten Tomatoes’ highest-reviewed movie ever. Watch it before it leaves Netflix.
In the wake of multiple prolonged wars in the Middle East, the last decade of American cinema has frequently grappled with the lives of veterans who return to a country that isn’t willing to offer them much. Some movies have successfully filtered that idea through the crime-thriller genre — Michael Bay’s Ambulance is a standout example in a recent wave of movies about ex-soldiers using their skills to pay their bills by turning to crime. But if you’re looking for something a little less high-octane, you can’t do better than Leave No Trace, which leaves Netflix July 4.
