Charlize

The week of April 20 to 26 comes full of news to Netflix. The most media premiere and expected by long-time fans of the platform is the first spin-off of ‘Stranger Things‘, an animated series subtitled ‘Stories of 85’ and which takes place between seasons 2 and 3 of the original series. But it’s not the only thing we have this week: there is the British thriller ‘The Not Chosen’ and a fast-paced thriller starring the platform’s very regular Charlize Theron, who will put her most extreme survival skills into play. Series Stranger Things: Stories from ’85 First animated spin-off of ‘Stranger Things’, which allows us to recover the characters loved by fans with the ages of the first seasons (specifically, between the second and third), avoiding that annoying mania of the actors to grow and mature. Winter 1985 in Hawkins: The tranquility after the explosive end of the second year is shattered when a new threat emerges from The Other Side. The Duffer brothers serve as executive producers of this proposal seeking to recreate the aesthetics of Saturday morning cartoons from the eighties. The animation by the Australian studio Flying Bark Productions mixes modern techniques with retro sensibility but, yes, the original actors of the series do not participate in the dubbing. The unelected British psychological thriller that at some point is reminiscent of the memorable ‘The Leftovers’ and follows a young mother who lives with her husband and daughter within a hermetic Christian community. The appearance of an escaped prisoner reveals the reality and restrictions of that closed world, raising doubts about whether the community really looks out for Rosie’s best interests. Asa Butterfield, who plays the husband, was the protagonist of ‘Sex Education’ and among the supporting cast we have none other than the former Doctor Who Christopher Eccleston.

Here she plays a grieving woman who ventures alone into the outback Australian and ends up trapped in a deadly game of cat and mouse with a psychopath played by Taron Egerton. Directed by Icelandic Baltasar Kormákur, accustomed to dangerous environments like those of ‘Everest’ or ‘Drifting’. The best: Theron performed much of her own action scenes, as usual, and trained with professional climber Beth Rodden, so we will have a good physical display of the actress, who usually gives herself to the maximum in the genre. Usual Suspects One of the undisputed classics of the wave of thrillers that devastated the screens in the nineties with a cast that still impresses today: Kevin Spacey, Chazz Palminteri, Gabriel Byrne and Benicio del Toro. A customs agent investigates a fire with 27 victims on a ship in the port of Los Angeles. Through the story of a conman who survived the massacre, the film reconstructs how five criminals met in a police lineup and ended up entangled in an operation orchestrated by Keyser Söze, a legendary and feared crime lord. Director Bryan Singer and Kevin Spacey gained international recognition with this film written by Christopher McQuarrie, who would later direct the most spectacular installments of ‘Mission Impossible’, here in an early work for which he conceived one of the most memorable and influential final twists in history.
