VOD News brings you the best releases of the week on Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+… And if the week the premieres of interest were distributed among the main platforms, the opposite is happening and After the hurricane occupies the privileged place by discard, although it does not look bad.
AppleTV+
Apple TV + goes up to the head of the section for the third time so far this year, again, by default, and not because it brings bad material. In fact, the usual thing is that it is little, but interesting at least. Thus, after The Fraguels: The fun continues Y Pachinkothe apple serve repeats position with After the hurricane.
After the hurricane
and what is it about After the hurricane, if it can be known? It is a new original series for Apple TV + and recreates nothing more and nothing less than the catastrophe of Hurricane Katrina, which many will remember for how brutal it was, although it is already on its way to celebrating its twentieth anniversary. Specifically, it was in 2005 when Hurricane Katrina devastated part of the southeastern United States, with special mention to what happened in New Orleans.
That’s what it focuses on After the hurricane and although the same is recreated, honoring its title, the story takes place in the following days. Because the tragedy was not only the hurricane itself, but everything that happened afterwards, and one of the most painful memories of that event was seeing how the world’s leading power was unable to care for its citizens.
It is not the ideal content to highlight during the holidays, but there is not much else to choose from and since this August will be 17 years since the catastrophe, remember what happened After the hurricane, even if dramatized, is an option to say the least interesting. It should be noted, yes, that it is not a story of natural catastrophes, but a human drama. The trailer is in English because Apple doesn’t take it one bit, but the series is dubbed.
Netflix
And now we’re on Netflix, which remains in line with a bunch of releases, each one more forgettable… but diversifying, things as they are.
Day shift
Of everything Netflix releases this week, Day shift is definitely the highlight. In fact, she could have headed the section, but when the subject is not clear, it is worth handing over the witness… and, it is not at all clear. We talk about the new film by Jamie Foxx (django unchained, Collateral) for the big N of VOD and if power project It was a bodrio of father and my dear sir, this Day shift points in the same direction. The plot… is the least of it, but go ahead, it’s a horror comedy, so things are forgiven that the other movie isn’t.
