Most Anticipated New Releases on Netflix This Week
Emily the Criminal (2022)
Coming to Netflix: Wednesday
Making its SVOD exclusive debut on Netflix this week is the new Aubrey Plaza crime thriller, Emily the Criminal. The movie released to rave reviews in theaters earlier this year and comes from writer/director John Patton Ford.
Per TMBD, here’s what you can expect:
“Emily, who is saddled with student debt and locked out of the job market due to a minor criminal record, gets involved in a credit card scam that pulls her into the criminal underworld of Los Angeles, ultimately leading to deadly consequences.”
Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio (2022)
Coming to Netflix: Friday
The master of suspense and horror is coming to Netflix with something slightly different this week in the form of a new iteration of the classic character, Pinocchio.
Through stop-motion animation, you’ll get to see a new reimagined version of the tale that sees a wooden marionette who is magically brought to life in order to mend the heart of a grieving woodcarver named Geppetto.
It’s been receiving rave reviews, and if you can’t wait until Friday, it’s also currently showing in select theaters.
Prisoners (2013)
Coming to Netflix: Saturday
When it comes to Denis Villeneuve, you’re probably more familiar with his recent works in the sci-fi and fantasy space with the likes of Dune and Bladerunner. However, the talented director also threw his hat into the ring in the thriller space with this superb Warner Brothers movie from almost a decade ago.
The film starred Hugh Jackman as Keller Dover, a father who will stop at nothing to find his missing daughter. Alongside Jackman was Jake Gyllenhaal, who stars as Detective Loki, the police officer in charge of the case.
