News VOD 08/23: ‘The consultant’, a bonus for Hans Landa

VOD news brings you the best new releases of the week on Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+… And the week appears loose, loose, but loose; but there it is The consultant to save the situation… more or less, let us see how he spends it. That said, depending on your tastes, you might find something else to sink your teeth into.

So, we start with what Amazon Prime Video brings, which for the first time this year is at the top of the section. It had to be with The consultant and not because they have lacked interesting releases. But novelty as such, this; and the one that accompanies him, since we are; and the long list of films, punctuated by some series, with which the platform reinforces its catalogue.

The release of the week is without a doubt The consultanta new Amazon Prime Video original series in the key of thriller halfway between the psychological and the visceral, with traces of creepiness and even black comedy and with a technological touch to the devs and the like that may not be one of the series of the year, but that will keep you glued to the screen for the eight episodes it has. His main value, his excellent antagonist, played by the always effective -especially in this type of role, which he has made his own- Christoph Waltz (Damn bastards, django unchained). Telecommuting is over.

And more humor with Die Hart, an action comedy based on the previous miniseries in the style of parodies of the genre. The highlight of the film, its protagonist, Kevin Hart (jumanji, The Upside) and the accompanying cast of John Travolta (grease, pulp fiction) to Jean Reno (Lion, The visitors), Josh Hartnett (pearl harbor, Black Hawk Down) or Nathalie Emmanuel (Game of Thrones, fast & furious).

We continue with Netflix, which continues to stand out for launching a lot, but very badly. And it’s not a good plan for how things have turned out, but…

A ghost is loose in the house

A ghost is loose in the house It is the most striking thing of the week when it comes to Netflix exclusives, and only because it comes from where it comes from. It is a horror comedy from the director of Zombie Camp, happy day of your death either This body feels like deathso you can already imagine where it is going – tone it down a bit if that, this is more youthful – and in which what stands out the most is the “main couple”, made up of Anthony Mackie (Captain America, Altered Carbon) and David Harbor (stranger things, hellboy).
