Streaming Spectacular: Ultimate Must-Watch Movies to Elevate Your Week
Imaginary
Despite “Imaginary” having only arrived in theaters this month, the Blumhouse horror is already dropping on video-on-demand services this week. Such a short gap between its cinema debut and its streaming launch could be seen as an indication of its overall quality. However, its awful reviews (it holds a 26% score on Rotten Tomatoes) don’t suggest otherwise. This tame supernatural spooker follows a young woman named Jessica (DeWanda Wise) who returns to her childhood home, alongside her new husband, only to discover that her long-forgotten imaginary friend, Chauncey the bear, wasn’t quite as make-believe as you may think. Plus, Chauncey isn’t so friendly anymore and hatches a scheme to capture the soul of Jessica’s young stepdaughter, Alice (Pyper Braun).
When You Finish Saving the World
Adding to the excitement is Netflix’s lineup, featuring the directorial debut of Jesse Eisenberg with “When You Finish Saving the World.” This thought-provoking comedy-drama, starring Julianne Moore and Finn Wolfhard, offers a refreshing take on familial relationships and personal growth.
The Beautiful Game
Sports enthusiasts won’t want to miss “The Beautiful Game” on Netflix, a stirring tribute to the power of unity and perseverance in the face of adversity. With stellar performances from Bill Nighy and Michael Ward, this soccer-themed film is sure to inspire viewers of all ages.
Lisa Frankenstein
Meanwhile, Peacock brings a touch of whimsy to the streaming landscape with “Lisa Frankenstein,” a quirky horror-comedy set in a universe of eccentric characters and offbeat humor. Directed by Zelda Williams and penned by Diablo Cody, this imaginative tale promises a wild ride filled with laughter and surprises.
The Boys in the Boat
For those craving a dose of nostalgia, MGM Plus offers “The Boys in the Boat,” a gripping sports drama directed by George Clooney. Set against the backdrop of the Great Depression, this inspirational story follows the journey of an underdog rowing team as they strive for glory at the 1936 Olympics.
“Drift” & “Stop Making Sense”
Additionally, PVOD platforms introduce “Drift,” a poignant drama starring Cynthia Erivo, and “Stop Making Sense,” a mesmerizing concert film featuring the iconic band Talking Heads. These cinematic gems offer a welcome escape into worlds of emotion and artistry.
