7. September 5
The 1972 Munich Olympics hostage crisis and massacre is rendered in docudrama form in September 5. Director Tim Fehlbaum presents the events — in which 11 Israeli athletes were taken hostage and later murdered by Palestinian militant group Black September, demanding the release of 236 Palestinian prisoners — from the perspective of an ABC sports broadcasting team covering the situation in real time.
As Siddhant Adlakha wrote in his review for Mashable, "An unremarkable real-world thriller, September 5fails on numerous fronts: both as a film re-telling the 1972 Munich Olympics hostage crisis, and as a journalistic retrospective about TV broadcasting. It arrives with renewed relevance in light of constant, harrowing news from Palestine, but the movie's narrowed focus — almost entirely confining the plot to the real-time developments within ABC's Munich newsroom — is a blinkered approach that ends up saying little about the events either in retrospect, or as they unfolded in the moment." — S.C.
Starring: Peter Sarsgaard, John Magaro, Ben Chaplin, Leonie Benesch, Zinedine Soualem, Georgina Rich, Corey Johnson, Marcus Rutherford, Benjamin Walker, Daniel Adeosun
How to watch:September 5is streaming on Paramount+ Feb. 25.
6. Cold Wallet
Who needs to steal cash in the age of cryptocurrency? Steven Soderbergh presents a chilly heist movie about a motley band of thieves looking to hijack a "cold wallet," the super cyber-protected hoard of a deceitful tech billionaire.
Far from Ocean's Eleven, Billy (Raúl Castillo) and his crew aren't slick master criminals. They're Redditors who bought into what crypto kingpin Charles Hegel (Josh Brener) was selling. So when they feel robbed, it only feels fitting to plot a home invasion to retrieve what's theirs. But this weaselly hostage proves a lot to handle. Studded with slapstick humor and suspense, Cold Wallet is a timely thriller with a raw appeal. — Kristy Puchko, Entertainment Editor
Starring: Raúl Castillo, Melonie Diaz, Tony Cavalero, Josh Brener, and Zoe Winters
How to watch: Cold Wallet is available for purchase on Apple TV+.
5. Strange Darling
A one-night stand goes horrifyingly sideways in Strange Darling, a serial killer cat-and-mouse game from director J.T. Mollner. Told in a series of nonlinear chapters, the sumptuously shot film is an intriguing puzzle where nothing is really as it seems. For that reason, it's best to go in with as little knowledge as possible and experience Strange Darling's twists and turns for yourself. Whether you'll find them rewarding or predictably played-out (as I did) is a toss-up, but Strange Darling's intriguing structure, as well as strong leading performances from Willa Fitzgerald (The Fall of the House of Usher) and Kyle Gallner (Smile), make this indie horror movie worth checking out. — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter
Starring: Willa Fitzgerald, Kyle Gallner, Barbara Hershey, and Ed Begley Jr.
How to watch:Strange Darlingis streaming on Paramount+ March 1.

Running Pointfeels like the love child of Ted Lassoand professional basketball — with a little bit of Succession's billionaire family dysfunction sprinkled in for good measure. Created by Mindy Kaling, Elaine Ko, Ike Barinholtz, and David Stassen, the series centers on the Gordon family, owners of the Los Angeles Waves (a fictionalized version of the Los Angeles Lakers). When president Cam (Justin Theroux) has to step down, he appoints his sister Isla (Kate Hudson) in his stead. The only woman in the very competitive Gordon family, Isla has long been pushed aside despite her basketball knowledge. But can she rise to the occasion and turn around a failing team?
What follows is a delightful comedy led by Hudson's powerhouse performance and bolstered by a winning ensemble that includes Brenda Song, Drew Tarver, and Scott MacArthur. As I wrote in my review, Running Pointis "a sharp comedy that skewers both professional basketball and dysfunctional families with glee. Here's hoping it joins Never Have I Ever as another multi-season Kaling Netflix series. It has all the right pieces, and with a little more time, it could cement itself as an absolute slam dunk." — B.E
Starring: Kate Hudson, Brenda Song, Drew Tarver, Scott MacArthur, Fabrizio Guido, Toby Sandeman, Chet Hanks, Max Greenfield, Jay Ellis, and Justin Theroux
How to watch: Running Pointis streaming on Netflix Feb. 27.
3. The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim
Middle-earth gets an anime makeover in The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim. Directed by Kenji Kamiyama, this epic prequel takes us 183 years into the past to a war-torn Rohan, where King Helm Hammerhand (voiced by Brian Cox) and his daughter Héra (Gaia Wise) must defend the Rohirrim from the Dunlending lord Wulf (Luke Pasqualino) and his armies. Their fight for survival will take them back to the Hornburg for one mighty last stand.
While The War of the Rohirrim contains its fair share of Easter eggs tied to Peter Jackson's original trilogy, it works best when it takes risks in order to separate itself from the pack of J.R.R. Tolkien adaptations. As I wrote in my review, "It's the ways in which The War of the Rohirrimstands out from Jackson's films — like the use of anime and the psychologically-focused siege sequence — that allows The War of the Rohirrimto truly carve out its own space in onscreen portrayals of Middle-earth." — B.E.

2. Presence
Seeking something uniquely unnerving? Then let Presence into your home viewing.
Director Steven Soderbergh and screenwriter David Koepp, who made the tech thriller Kimiand the upcoming spy thriller Black Bagtogether, re-teamed for a haunted house story not quite like any we've seen before. Presence is told from the perspective of the ghost at its center, with Soderbergh operating the camera as the unseen resident of a suburban home full of turmoil. While the family of four who lives there argues, the ghost listens in, dying to be heard. But what happens when the presence makes contact will awe you.
In my review of Presence,I called it "a remarkable union of a clever concept and a superb execution…Soderbergh's steady hand is so mindful in its performance that you can practically feel the expressions of a face you cannot see. The cast expertly builds a believable and complex family bond while effortlessly completing choreographed blocking. And Koepp delivers a final act that is stomach-churningly tense yet tender. All of this collides to make a sublimely realized ghost story that is easily one of the best films of the year." — K.P.
Starring: Lucy Liu, Chris Sullivan, Callina Liang, Eddy Maday, West Mulholland, and Julia Fox
How to watch: Presence is available for purchase on Prime Video.
1. A Complete Unknown
Ahead of the Oscars, James Mangold's eight-time Academy Award nominated biopic about the enigmatic Bob Dylan is available on digital. So you can enjoy Timothée Chalamet's SAG Award-winning performance from the comfort of home. But turn up the volume to truly allow the '60s soundtrack of rebellion and heartache wash over you.
In my review for A Complete Unknown, I praised Chalamet's "irritating" performance, as well as how writer/director Mangold held space for other major figures in folk, like Pete Seeger (Edward Norton) and Joan Baez (Monica Barbaro). I wrote, "Each of these performances masterfully fleshes out these figures so they exist beyond their connection to Dylan. You can see how they tie together, how it hurts when he cuts that tie, but also that each is a tapestry even without him. This, above all else, makesA Complete Unknownremarkable, setting it apart from countless dramas about an abusive (and always male) creative genius whose bad behavior is effectively shrugged off as the cost of art." — K.P.
Starring: Timothée Chalamet, Edward Norton, Elle Fanning, Monica Barbaro, Boyd Holbrook, and Scoot McNairy
How to watch: A Complete Unknown is available for purchase on Prime Video.
