HBO Max: 10 of the best films to stream this week

HBO Max

This is HBO Max’s sweet little gem. Non-pregnant stars Haley Lu Richardson and Barbie Ferreira as fellow duos crossing places where pregnant teen Veronica (Richardson) can have an abortion. Yes, it’s about an abortion issue, and Veronica’s parents refuse to give her permission to have an abortion. But it’s also incorporated into the main gear of all road trip movies, depicting a beautiful friendship between the two leads.

A growth story featuring a motorcycle. Charm City Kings starring a fresh young cast, including 14-year-old Jahidialo Winston as a mouse, who was wiped out of the Baltimore cycling world. The strength of this movie lies in its impressive young talent and strong direction of the scene, including the action of the bike. In addition, WandaVision fans will find Teyonah Parris playing a supporting role. It’s not perfect, but there’s a lot to admire.

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

80’s fan? Do you want to include that filmmaking style? Wonder Woman’s sequel is deeply inspirational. It goes back to a pleasingly simple version of adventure and heroism, or really annoys you with pointless plots and slow paces. Gal Gadot’s Diana Prince has been working in Smithsonian, where ancient relics start a world of problems and force her to make some difficult decisions, not going beyond the death of Steve Trevor (Chris Pine). It was. Kristen Wiig and Pedro Pascal are new members of the cast. Colorful and lightweight escapism.

HBO Max

Also known as Snyder’s Cut. This is for a crowd of Zack Snyder fans whose director campaigned to get a second shot at the Justice League finish after being forced to leave before finishing the Justice League due to a personal tragedy. Thing. It was a stepped Joss Whedon, but the 2017 movie version was a serious box office failure. Now you’re ready for a 4-hour Snyder Director’s Cut on HBO Max. There are many new scenes, some new villains, and epilogues. If you’re riding Snyder’s slow-motion style, it’s worth checking out his significantly different original vision.

Tenet (2020)

Warner Bros.

If there’s a movie that gets better with multiple rewatches, it’s Tenet. You can do it now, thanks to the release on HBO Max Understand the plot It goes with its spectacular visuals. John David Washington will star as the main character. The name is a subtle hint to James Bond’s mission to prevent future world-destroying attacks. The protagonist learns to manipulate the flow of time with the help of Robert Pattinson’s Debonair Anneal. Probably the most Christopher Nolan movie in the movie, Tenet is as entertaining as the brain.

Legendary / Warner Bros.

Sadly, Godzilla vs Kong After hanging out in the streamer for a month after the March release, it’s no longer available (it will be available again at some point in the future). Why is it still on this list? We look forward to seeing other movies on HBO Max for a month as part of WarnerMedia’s simultaneous theater and streaming release plans. Future plans: Suicide Squadron (August 6th), Dunes (October 1st), Matrix 4 (December 22nd).

Anne Hathaway and Chiwetel Ejiofor star in this amazing romantic comedy robbery film by Doug Liman (The Bourne Identity). The film was written and filmed during the blockade, and the pandemic actually appears in the background of the film. Hathaway and Ejiofor play a couple planning to rob London’s jewelry store while most stores are closed. Their relationship is suffering from blockages and they are reassessing one or two things in the crazy capers. It’s not the most sophisticated flick, but you’re working on it primarily for the charisma of Hathaway and Egiofor. When a pandemic is included, it is intriguing or turns away.

HBO Max

Whether you like this or not depends probably on how much you like Seth Rogen. You’ve got a lot of him-he played two roles in American pickles, first playing Hershall Greenbaum, a struggling Jewish worker who emigrated to the United States in 1919. I will. He finds a job at the pickle factory-and this makes it strange where things are-falls into a pickle vat that saves him for 100 years. He wakes up in Brooklyn in 2019 and hangs out with his great-grandson Ben, played by Seth Rogen. If you accept this creative premise, this is a great understated comedy for a small screen with some striking chemistry between Rogen and Rogen.

HBO Max

Meryl Streep plays a quirky writer in Steven Soderbergh’s comedy. What more do you need to know? For more information: Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Alice Hughes (Streep) is chased by her literary agent (Gemma Chan) and struggles to complete her next book. She board a cruise ship with an old friend who influenced her most famous work. I’m very nervous. It looks great and Soderbergh uses crisp, natural light. Most conversations are improvised. Find out how Dianne Wiest, Candice Bergen, Lucas Hedges and other impeccable casts are having fun.

HBO Max

This is a bit of a novelty inclusion. See what Robert Zemeckis (Director of Back to the Future) and Anne Hathaway did by talking about Roald Dahl’s classics. Jahzir Kadeem Bruno is a hero boy who was turned into a mouse by Hathaway’s occasional CGI Grand High Witch. No one says it’s close to the 1990 Angelica Huston original, but a quick glance is quite intriguing.
