News VOD 13/23: ‘Tetris’, more than a game, a whole story

VOD News brings you the best new releases of the week on Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, HBO Max, Netflix… And you can tell that the holidays are coming, because you are going to find new and quite drinkable material on most platforms. But since we are here very geeks, Tetris for all.

Thus, we begin the weekly review of what Apple TV + has to offer, and it is not usual since not one, but three new ones are added to the content that it keeps on broadcast, including today’s highlight, Tetris.

Tetris is…a story based on the game? We’re not that geeky. Tetris is “the true story of American video game commercial Henk Rogers and his discovery of the Tetris in 1988.” Starring Taron Egerton (Rocket man, Robin Hood), this is the story of how the doyen of digital puzzles, created by the Russian engineer Alekséi Pázhitnov, became a product. A story based on true events and a new original Apple TV+ movie that, without too much fuss, critics are receiving with optimism.

But there is more to the apple service, and that is if Tetris It tastes like little to you, they also premiere the series The prize of your life, a comedy that is so good at choosing the platform, with a curious approach on which to display its virtues. In the pseudo-exsitentialist style that those from Cupertino like so much. I won’t say more, the trailer already says enough.

On Netflix, as usual, the offer is more substantial, although after a sieve it remains unusable. Although since we are going to movies today, look at the one we have highlighted, but also boksoon must die if you like powerful action movies.

criminals in sight is… the sequel to criminals at sea, the unexpected success of Netflix with the romantic action comedy starring Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston almost four years ago. This is, once again, a movie of the bunch that is already being described as rubbish by critics, but that in all probability will be a success again, because despite the regrets, these light entertainments, no matter how mediocre they are, are liked. Or so it is told. The rest, in the trailer.

On Amazon Prime Video the offer this week is scarce and a bit depressing, but even so there is room for a prominent release a priori.

That release is none other than Power, a new Prime Video Original Series, The power, which revolves around another curious, albeit somewhat smug approach: what would happen if a very diverse group of teenage girls had powers? Specifically, the power to electrocute people. It sounds very seedy, yes, but it’s based on a blockbuster and the adaptation seems to be proving to be well received by critics, at least in general terms.
