Based on the Fear Street novels written by Goosebumps creator R. L. Stine, Netflix’s Fear Street Trilogy comprises three parts, each set during a different period: 1994, 1978, and 1666. All three films follow a group of teenagers living in the fictional town of Shadyside, which has been terrorised for centuries by an ancient, evil force responsible for a series of horrific murders. The cast includes The trilogy’s total runtime is about five and a half hours, so save this one for a rainy weekend and get bingeing. This critically-acclaimed French flick stars Mélanie Laurent as a young woman who wakes up to find herself trapped in an airtight medical cryogenic chamber with no recollection of how she got there. She discovers that the unit’s oxygen levels are depleting rapidly, and the chamber’s artificial intelligence (named MILO) refuses to release her without an administrator code. Working together with MILO, she must piece together her memory and figure out a way to escape before completely running out of air. Run stars Sarah Paulson as the dangerously overprotective mother of 17-year-old Chloe, played by newcomer Kiera Allen. Born prematurely and facing multiple health issues as a result, Chloe has spent her entire life isolated from the world, homeschooled and cared for by her mother. Soon, her yearning for freedom collides with a series of incidents that lead Chloe to believe her mother is hiding something – something big. The Mitchells vs the Machines follows the dysfunctional Mitchell family as they attempt to save humanity from the robot apocalypse – all while on a road trip. It also has a truly stellar voice cast, including Abbi Jacobson, Danny McBride, Maya Rudolph, Olivia Coleman, Eric Andre, Fred Armisen, Conan O’Brien and even beloved Insta-famous dog Doug the Pug. What more could you want? It follows the life of entrepreneur Balram Halwai (Gourav), from his days as an academically gifted but poor child living in a rural Indian village, determined to escape servitude and become successful. As a young man, Balram begins working for a wealthy family as a personal driver. As he grows closer to his wealthy employers (Chopra and Rao), it only becomes clearer how corrupt India’s politicians are, and how stark the contrast between the lower and upper classes is. Set during the uncertainty and fear of pre-WWII England, The Dig explores the discovery of a ship from the Dark Ages and the fight over who really owns the historic find. Sure, it’s no thriller or raucous comedy, but it’s brilliantly acted, the story achingly poignant and the cinematography flawless. It’s powerful, enthralling and utterly heartwrenching, with Kirby’s performance attracting critical acclaim and even scoring the Volpi Cup for Best Actress at the Venice International Film Festival. Keep an eye out for this one come Oscar season. Call Me By Your Name is set in the summer of 1983 in rural Northern Italy, where 17-year-old Elio (Chalamet) lives with his mother and archeology professor father. When 24-year-old graduate student Oliver is invited to stay with the family to assist with the professor’s academic paperwork, Elio finds himself drawn to him, and it quickly becomes clear the feeling is mutual. The film follows a young girl named Fei Fei who, having recently lost her mother to illness, learns of the legend of the moon goddess Chang’e. Determined to prove the goddess’ existence, Fei Fei sets out to build a rocket to the moon, taking her beloved pet rabbit Bungee and (unknowingly) her soon-to-be step-brother along on what is destined to be an adventure like no other. Starring Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver as parents grappling over the unexpected consequences of their increasingly messy divorce and custody battle, Marriage Story is both heartbreaking and incredibly heartwarming at once. It’s a hard movie to describe. You can check out the trailer below, but I’m Thinking of Ending Things is one of those flicks that going in blind to is actually an advantage. Just grab yourself a glass of wine, hit the couch and settle in for a mind-bending ride. But one lazy afternoon, scrolling through the new releases, I took a chance on the fuzzy, pant-less bear and I couldn’t be happier that I did. Paddington 2 is pure, uncut joy from beginning to end. The animation is, frankly, incredible and the humour is the type to tickle everyone’s funny bone, no matter the age. It also features a gloriously over-the-top performance from Hugh Grant as the movie’s villain. A biographical dramedy about comedian/writer/lover duo Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon, The Big Sick follows the couple’s meet-cute and prompt split after a conflict of cultures. When Emily falls sick with a mysterious illness, Kumail and Emily’s parents form a bond from the hospital waiting room. The Big Sick is the perfect heartwarming comedy for a hungover Sunday and you’ll have a newfound appreciation for sitcom Dad, Ray Romano. For Keanu Reeves, though, the loss of a dog as a motivating factor for a high body count is a lot more grounded. And despite the seemingly farcical pitch, it works. Like, really, really works. That’s why the best way to sell the uninitiated on John Wick is to ignore the premise and focus on basically everything else. Reeves is in fine form here, starting out with a typically understated portrayal of titular Wick before exploding like a powder keg. Then there are the superbly choreographed action set pieces that definitively prove that shaky cam isn’t the only way to show expert speed or adrenaline-pumping intensity. You can also find the sequel on Netflix, but not only does your viewing need to start with the original, but it also happens to be the best of the series (so far). Okja, the uber swine, has been raised in the idyllic Korean wilds by Mija, a young farmhand. But when the creators of the super pig, the comic-book-evil Mirando corporation, take Okja back to New York for its always-intended propaganda and meat purposes, Mija sets off to the rescue. Tilda Swinton is compellingly off-putting as the head of Mirando, and the CGI pig is just cute enough to give the relationship with Mija real heart. E.T. for vegetarians. Netflix has an abundance of high-concept weird sci-fi Originals, but most are only interesting conceptually – reading the blurb is more satisfying than watching them. Annihilation is the exception, with enough craftsmanship that it actually manages to be a compelling movie. Andy (Martin Freeman) has been bitten and has only 48 hours before he turns into a snarling beast. He needs to use that time to find somewhere safe for the titular bundle: Rosie, his adorable baby. Creepy and upsetting rather than outright terrifying. When Ronsel, the oldest son of the farmhands family returns from the war in Europe, a theatre where he was hailed a hero and treated as a liberator, he’s confronted once again by the systemic racism deeply embedded into the American heartland. The nagging sense that this isn’t going to end well does little to soften the blow when it finally comes. Confronting and powerful, if not exactly a fun night out. This is Cuarón’s most personal work, but he still manages to deploy his best cinematic tricks. Though less bombastic than those seen in Children of Men, a final act tracking shot goes from carefree to unbearably tense to beautifully cathartic with barely a pause in between. It’s masterful stuff. But don’t just take our word for it: Cuarón won Academy Awards for both best director and best cinematography, and Roma itself took out the gong for best foreign-language film. Yes, he screams at the camera for comedic effect, but there are genuinely touching moments as he struggles to find the acceptance that has eluded him for decades. You’ll grow fond of these characters as they slowly come together to repair decades of distance. It’s not the funniest movie on Netflix, but it’s the best funny movie. When young boy Agu’s village is decimated and his family murdered by an invading army, he flees into the exploitative arms of a guerrilla insurgency. Newcomer Abraham Attah is fantastic as Agu, sympathetic in his struggle to cling onto a semblance of innocence from the corrupting influence of Idris Elba’s Commandant. Deeply disturbing, but powerful. For some reason, Ja Rule was involved in it all. Fyre is not the most important documentary on Netflix, but it is the most entertaining – and yet it still provides a glimpse into what happens when capitalism at its most predatory meets ego at its most incompetent.
