^^ Hmm funny I watched Olympus has Fallen on Mexico other day and it had subtitles! strange. I will hazard a guess about Mexico. A lot of Americans holiday there for like 2-3 months at a time, so maybe Netflix has cottoned on to this and is starting to drop forced subtitles.
I watched The Call today via PC and sadly it did have forced subtitles.

2012 film gambit starring Colin firrh and Cameron Diaz has been added to Netflix uk
Netflix UK is certainly improving for films. Another couple of additions are What Richard Did and the Danish film The Hunt.

Orphan Black on Netherlands Netflix.
Yes I noticed that. The series is starting next week on BBC Three but I might watch it on Netflix has it is in HD. I just hope there are no forced subtitles.

I've never ventured into the Netherlands before but did today to take a look at Orphan Black but got a pleasant surprise when I found all episodes of Doctor Who (Nu Who 2005 onwards) there. Including the most recent episodes right up to the Name of the Doctor. No subs either. Fantastic!

Blimey, loving The Netherlands - they also have Room 237, the 2013 documentary about the legacy of Stanley Kubrick's The Shining.
Oh and all 4 series of Misfits.

Horses for coarse really as no matter what Netflix region pages you see on either Facebook or Twitter they all complain their native region is crap and that others are better.

Personally I think the UK is better for films than the US and considering the difficult market Netflix has in the UK they have done well. Also if you think the other regions are so better why don't you use them instead?

I think UK has a good range. Its the only place to see the new Breaking Bad episodes and they exclusively have The Hobbit.

It's actually around £3.20, not £5.

Why?
Even with unblock-us @£3.20'ish extra it still makes it a lot cheaper than NowTV.
