It’s a quieter week on Netflix UK, with 25 new movies added to the library. However, we can all look forward to the return of Arcane over the weekend, as the first part of its final season arrives Saturday.
First of all, here are the week’s highlights:
Eyes Wide Shut (1999)
Director: Stanley Kubrick
Genre: Romance, Thriller| Runtime: 158 Minutes
Cast: Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Sydney Pollack, Marie Richardson, Rade Serbedzija
Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman were still married when they filmed Eyes Wide Shut, which added to their sexual chemistry in Kubrick’s steamy thriller.
Spiraling after a surprising confession from his wife, a high-society New York City doctor begins a surreal, all-night journey into an erotic underworld.
17 Again (2009)
Director: Burr Steers
Genre: Comedy, Teen | Runtime: 101 Minutes
Cast: Zac Efron, Leslie Mann, Matthew Perry, Thomas Lennon, Michelle Trachtenberg
When 17 Again first landed in theatres, the actor was still most well known for starring as Troy Bolton in Disney’s High School Musical. However, his performance in the film proved he wasn’t a one-trick pony and could go on to have a successful acting career outside of Disney’s influence.
Divorced, down on his luck, and his kids dislike him, Mike hits a mid-life crisis, wishing he could relive being 17 all over again. When Mike wakes up as his 17-year-old self, he gets to relive his youth all over again, but when he runs into his family, he must decide what’s most important to him.
Hustlers (2019)
Director: Lorene Scafaria
Genre: Comedy, Crime, Drama | Runtime: 109 Minutes
Cast: Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Julia Stiles, Keke Palmer, Mercedes Ruehl
Jennifer Lopez is one of the most popular actresses on Netflix, thanks to her original movies such as Atlas and The Mother.
At the height of the 2008 global financial crash, a stripper and street-smart team decided to turn the tables on their wealthy Wall Street clients.
