My wife and I like perusing s2s shows on Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon. There’s some stinkers and some fun ones. I’ve given thought about having a running “here’s what we watched on streaming this week” thread.

This week we watched Aftermath (not amazing but a fun thriller with a twist I didn’t see coming and Ashley Green is still a looker) and Brazen (Alyssa Milano doing her best Jennifer Coolidge impression in a very awful movie.)

Schwentke intends a parable of how even the smallest, perhaps especially the smallest, people can rise to the occasion when suddenly given authoritarian power to wield. Willi is played with remarkable conviction by Max Hubacher, who constricts his face into a rat-like vision of first fear, then murderous smugness. Willi can use his captain’s guise to wallow in whatever luxuries might be available to him in these last days of war, and eventually he does, but mainly he’s interested in throwing his new-found weight around in the most awful ways possible. ...
