VOD News brings you the best new releases of the week on Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, HBO Max, Netflix… AND Banshees by Inisherin It is the best thing you can see, not the only thing. Far from it the only thing. Keep reading and you will end up smiling.
We start one more week on Disney+, although this time not because of a rebound, but because the platform premieres Banshees by Inisherinwhich is not that it is a pure and hard premiere, but…
Although most of the important films of the recent Oscar Awards 2023 could already be seen on digital platforms, the list is expanded with Banshees by Inisherinone of the nominees for best film and eight other awards, including best direction, best screenplay, best leading and supporting actor… Let it not be said that this ode to boring life is not a powerful proposal, at least on paper .
In fact, Banshees by Inisherin It was one of the Oscar favorites, one of the last to be released in theaters, although it did so at the wrong time depending on the place. Here in Spain it hit theaters in February, at the beginning of the month, so it can be said that Disney+ brings it out fresh… Or warm, as you prefer.
Banshees by Inisherin is a dramedy by the director of Three advertisements on the outskirts starring Colin Farrell (Alexander the Great, Minority Report) and Brendan Gleeson (braveheart, Gangs of New York), among other more or less familiar faces. It tells a simple story, but one of those that touches your heart a bit for everything: the stage, the performances… If you don’t have the last name Boyero, you’ll enjoy it. But take it easy.

Don’t you like the moñadas? Don’t worry, in Amazon Prime Video you will find other things, including a lot of filler that even interests you more than the constant and ringing news.
As a featured release we have smilea film whose passage through theaters is not as recent as that of Banshees by Inisherin, but that to a certain extent has amassed even more success, it is not for nothing that we talk about one of the horror film phenomena of last year. This was, in fact, one of our favorite movies of 2022. If you haven’t seen it, it’s nothing special, but it does have its point. Or what is the same, it will not make you smile, but…

And we turn the page with HBO Max, which is not releasing a movie, but a serious one. In other words, what we highlight from everything that premieres is a series and not a movie.
the series is Gotham Knights And you wouldn’t in a million years know what it’s about. Or most likely it is, although it has its explanation: this is a new and at the same time, one of the latest series on The CW Network based on the DC superhero universe, encompassed in what is known as Arrwverso (horror, Flash, Supergirl, etc). Of course, the criticism is receiving it so badly that calling it garbage does not seem a bit disproportionate. You are warned.
