NETFLIX: DON'T MESS WITH THESE MOMS!

Hell hath no fury like a mother wronged. 

- 

At least that's the lesson taught by a number of choice viewing options available on Netflix. Whether wielding a gun or giving good advice-or both the moms on this page go above and beyond to keep their kids safe from harm, and with Mother's Day upon us, it's a good idea to set aside a weekend to binge these crackling films and series.

The Mother

In a role reminiscent of Jeff Bridges’ turn in FX’s The Old Man, a camo-clad Jennifer Lopez (above left) is an ex-assassin living off the grid who, when bad guys go gunning for her, suddenly finds she needs to come out of hiding to ensure the safety of the daughter she long ago gave up. Joseph Fiennes and Gael García Bernal costar. Premieres Friday, May 12
