Netflix users are in for a delight but must act swiftly - this critically acclaimed Olivia Colman film is set to disappear from the streaming service soon.

Famed for her roles in The Crown and Paddington in Peru, Colman has impressed audiences with her performance in an outstanding British comedy mystery that debuted in 2023.

The movie has been well-received by critics and viewers alike, generating a wave of positive buzz upon its arrival on Netflix. However, time is running out for those who wish to be enthralled by this intriguing mystery as it's slated to leave the streaming platform on Tuesday, April 22nd.

The film causing all the excitement is Wicked Little Letters, standing out as one of the most unique British comedies to surface in recent years, which should not be missed by any subscriber, according to Surrey Live.

Colman lights up the screen as the stern Edith Swan, who suspects her brash Irish immigrant neighbour, Rose Gooding, portrayed by Jessie Buckley, of sending her family shocking hate mail.

As a series of crude letters disrupt their lives, Edith's authoritarian father Edward calls in the authorities, including police officer Gladys Moss and Chief Constable Spedding, to squash the disturbance.

Viewers are taken on a thrilling journey filled with humour and suspense as the quarrelling neighbours clash while trying to solve this vulgar puzzle.

Google reviews are on fire with accolades for Wicked Little Letters and cinema enthusiasts heap copious five-star ratings on the film.

One passionate moviegoer raved: "This movie was truly outstanding on every level. From the storyline, to the cast, the production, locations, and cinematography. I laughed, I cried, and then, I laughed, out loud, again! Intriguing, intelligent, smart, savvy and more!"

Another cinephile enthused: "What a fantastic ride of a movie. The acting is without flaw and this movie is an unexpected slice of life in the early 20th century."

"The movie has comedic moments, but also undertones of what it was like to be a woman at a time when women's suffrage was still seeking acceptance."

A reviewer insisted it's critical viewing for female movie fans: "A wickedly funny, well-written movie that is based on a crime that occurred during the 1920s in England. The story included the first ever female police officer in the town and she is the one that solves the case."

"The acting and humour are the reasons this movie is so good. It's a must see for women of all ages."

"Women viewers will understand the behaviours portrayed and will appreciate the roles and dialogue of each actress. Enjoy a few deep laughs!"

A shining Letterboxd review captured the sentiment: "I could think of a few people in my community I'd love to send these letters to."

The reviewer continued with high praise: "Great story. Hilarious. Perfectly cast. Olivia Coleman and Jessie Buckley are sublime. I could barely even hear some of the insults through the audience's laughter."
