VOD News brings you the best releases of the week on Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+… And, without major launches, the panorama appears moderately interesting, with the return of the Little Liars as a featured dish.
So, we begin the weekly review with what HBO Max brings, which is not only Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin: as exclusives, there is the new season of the despiporre of What we do in the shadows and already getting into what goes into the catalogue, the complete series of downton abbeyamong other things.
Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin It is, however, the highlight of the week, also on the HBO Max ‘grid’. And not only because it is the return of a successful franchise, but because the return is well done, which in the end is what matters most. Or, at least, that is how the criticism of this new stage of the Little Liars.
What changes in Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin with respect to the two previous installments? The essence remains and the suspense crime drama continues to guide events. And, of course, the pretty little liars as involuntary protagonists of a sequel that, yes, is a little darker than its predecessors.
