VOD News brings you the best new releases of the week on Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+… And things are a bit loose again, despite the amount of news that there is. That is why in the middle of Saturday, we opted for Wednesday.
What was said: Wednesday It is the featured content of the week and not because Netflix brings few things. Quite the contrary: with some twenty-something exclusive releases, it arrives, yes, with much more straw than grain, as is customary. However, in the variety is the taste, they say.
I don’t know if the introduction is necessary, but here it goes: Wednesday is a new television adaptation about the dark Addams Family and, more specifically, about his daughter Wednesday and his youthful adventures. In other words, yes, it is one more series for teenagers on Netflix, with the incentive of not being focused on hormonal sauce, of using a well-known franchise as a base… and of being directed by Tim Burton, who is not going through his best creative moment , but that continues to be a seal of a minimum of quality. With this brief summary, the title and the trailer, you have more than enough to assess whether you venture to see it or not.
On the other hand, it is also worth noting our universea new documentary series that continues and expands what has been seen in Our world with the requetetípico style that you already imagine. In fact, seeing it for the first time gives the feeling of having seen it not once, but several times. If even Morgan Freeman is the narrator in the original version. That said, this type of content is a value for Netflix.
