VOD newsbrings you the week’s best releases on Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+… And if the week when the premieres of interest were distributed among the main platforms, the opposite happens and After the hurricane it occupies a privileged place by elimination, although it does not look bad.
Apple TV+
Apple TV + goes to the head of the section for the third time this year, again by default and not because it brings bad material. In fact, it is usual that it is little, but at least interesting. So after The Fraguels: The fun continues Y Pachinkothe apple serving repeats the position with After the hurricane.
After the hurricane
and whatever After the hurricane, if it can be recognized? It’s a new original series for Apple TV+ and recreates nothing more and nothing less than the Hurricane Katrina disaster, which many will remember for how brutal it was, even though it’s on its way to celebrating its twentieth anniversary. Specifically, it was in 2005 when Hurricane Katrina devastated part of the southeastern United States, with a special mention of what happened in New Orleans.
That’s what he focuses on After the hurricane and although the same is recreated, it lives up to its name, the story takes place in the following days. Because it wasn’t just the hurricane itself that was a tragedy, but everything that happened afterwards, and one of the most painful memories of this event was seeing how a leading world power failed to take care of its citizens.
It’s not an ideal filler to pick up during the holidays, but there’s not much else to choose from and as this August marks the 17th anniversary of the disaster, remember what happened After the hurricane, even if dramatized, is the least interesting option. It should be noted that yes, it is not a story of natural disasters, but a human drama. The trailer is in English because Apple doesn’t take it one bit, but the series is dubbed.
Netflix
And now we’re at Netflix, which remains consistent with a series of releases, each one more forgettable… but diversifying, things as they are.
Day shift
Of everything Netflix releases this week, Day shift is definitely a highlight. In fact, she may have headed the section, but when the topic is not clear, it is worth passing the baton… and it is not clear at all. We’re talking about Jamie Foxx’s new movie (Django Unchained, Minor) for large N VOD and if energy project It was a bodrio of father and my dear sir, this Day shift pointing in the same direction. The plot… it’s the least of it, but come on, it’s a horror comedy, so things are forgivable that the second movie isn’t.
