3 new Netflix releases I’m looking forward to watching
I looked into a number of their new releases, but these are the two movies and one series coming to Netflix this fall that really caught my interest. I don’t think I’ll be watching The Uglies, The Lonely Planet and Monsters and may edit the post later to share why.
Nobody Wants This
A relationship that seems mismatched but actually isn’t? I’ll watch. Nobody Wants This is a somewhat autobiographical series is about the struggles of being with the right person because being in a great relationship can be hard too! The relationship at hand is between a sex podcast host who doesn’t believe in God and a young orthodox rabbi who obviously does.
All 10 episodes of Nobody Wants This season 1 premiere on Netflix Sept. 26th.
The Platform 2
The Platform 1 really struck me. In a new fangled prison-like building inmates are fed everyday with a sprawling feast laid out on a platform for them. There’s only one catch: the platform passes through the levels of the building starting at the top and stays on each level for 2 minutes. Those in the middle levels are grateful for the leftovers…the bottom end up starving. See my review for it here.
Anyway, I don’t see a point for a second movie but since the first one was so well done I’m looking forward to seeing it.
The Platform 2 will be on Netflix October 4th.
His Three Daughters
His Three Daughters looked like it could be interesting even before I saw that critics considered it one of the finest films of the year, with a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I didn’t see much plot going on in the trailer, but the realness of it drew me in. It’s about three grown sisters who are brought back together under one roof as they stay with their father on his deathbed, allowing the past to unravel.
His Three Daughters will be on Netflix Sept 20th.
