Netflix Streaming Report: Nurse Jackie, Parenthood, The West Wing, and More
Welcome to your Netflix Streaming Report for December 31, 2015. After the long week you deserve a relaxing staycation with a bowl of popcorn, a bucket of ice cream, and only your Netflix queue to judge you. This past week, Netflix Watch Instant has been kind enough to supply us with Nurse Jackie, Parenthood, The West Wing, and more.
Source: BuzzFeed
Parenthood (Season 6) (Jason Katims) Rated TV-PG [43 min] – The lives and tragedies of the Braverman family tree. Starring Peter Krause, Lauren Graham, Dax Shepard, Monica Potter, Erika Christensen, Sam Jaeger, Savannah Paige Rae, Max Burkholder, Joy Bryant, Miles Heizer, Mae Whitman, Bonnie Bedelia, Craig T. Nelson, and Tyree Brown
I haven’t seen a single episode, but I’ve heard about how much the final season had grown adults weeping like babies. Now that all of the seasons are finally on Netflix it’s time to get binging.

Nurse Jackie (Season 1-6) (Liz Brixius, Evan Dunsky, and Linda Wallem) Rated TV-MA [27 min] – A drug-addicted nurse struggles to find a balance between the demands of her frenetic job at a New York City hospital and an array of personal dramas. Starring Edie Falco, Peter Facinelli, Paul Schulze, Dominic Fumusa, Merritt Wever, Anna Deavere Smith, Adam Ferrera, Ruby Jerins, Morris Chestnut, and Betty Gilpie
Another series I have not yet gotten to. Nurse Jackie has never been one that stood out to me, but Edie Falco (The Sopranos) continually popped up when it came down to awards season for her role. I’d be interested to see what kind of adventures a female anti-hero could get into with the acting caliber of Falco.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (Gore Verbinski) Rated PG-13 [143 min] – Blacksmith Will Turner teams up with eccentric pirate “Captain” Jack Sparrow to save his love, the governor’s daughter, from Jack’s former pirate allies, who are now undead. Starring Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, Orlando Bloom, and Kiera Knightely
The only Pirates of the Caribbean movie you’ll ever need.

And if you haven’t seen Aaron Sorkin’s (The Social Network; Money Ball; Steve Jobs) serial classic, like myself, again, now is the time to get your binge on.

Netflix Streaming Report: Dawn of the Croods, Raze, Glitter Force, and More
Welcome to your Netflix Streaming Report for December 24, 2015. After the long week you deserve a relaxing staycation with a bowl of popcorn, a bucket of ice cream, and only your Netflix queue to judge you. This past week, Netflix Watch Instant has been kind enough to supply us with Dawn of the Croods, Raze, Glitter Force, and more. Also, find out what’s leaving Netflix as of January 2016.
Source: Tumblr
Raze (Josh C. Waller) Rated R [92 min] – Raze, a horror/action film, focuses on two abducted women & 50 other women who are forced to fight each other using their bare hands. Starring Zoë Bell, Rachel Nichols, and Tracie Thoms
As dark and disturbing as Raze is, I like the concept of the film and vigor these ladies put into their performances. Sadly the story and direction are very weak and the characters two-dimensional. The fight scenes are pretty vicious and spectacularly brutal at times. It’s worth checking out if you have nothing else better to do with your time.

Fireplace 4K: Crackling Fireplace and Birchwood (George Ford) Rated TV-G [60 min] – The first of its kind in UHD 4K, with the clearest picture available, a real fireplace spakrs and crackles, adding warmth and atmosphere to any home.
If you’re getting a new 4K television this Christmas, this yuletide fireplace is a great way to test it out.
(Watch it now)
Dawn of the Croods (Season 1) (Brendan Hay) Rated TV-Y7 [23 min] – The world’s first family is back for more laughs as they discover sports, sleepovers, and other wonders in a world of exotic creatures and adventures. Starring Dan Milano, Cree Summer, and Stephanie Lemelin [Watch the trailer]
I was pleasantly surprised by The Croods when it released back in 2013. It isn’t a monumental movie that hosts a slew of memorable scenes, but it is for the most part fun and not too overly DreamWorks – referential and childish. However, Dawn of the Croods looks to be far more crude and less enjoyable than its film counterpart. I’m not very interested in where the Croods comes from, as Dawn serves as a prequel, but rather I’m more curious as to how the family will move forward after the events that took place in the film.

Netflix Streaming Report: Christmas 2015 Edition
Welcome to your Netflix Streaming Report for December 17, 2015. After the long week you deserve a relaxing staycation with a bowl of popcorn, a bucket of ice cream, and only your Netflix queue to judge you. Since nothing but garbage has been made newly available this past week, and no one should subject themselves to watching Adam Sandler’s Ridiculous 6, I’ve compiled a thorough list of all the Christmas movies on Netflix that you can enjoy in the comfort of your own home this holiday season.
Walt Disney Animation Studios Short Films Collection (Many Directors) – From Walt Disney Animation Studios comes an extraordinary new collection of award-winning and beloved short films for the first time with all-new extras including an inside look at the Disney Animation shorts, featuring introductions and interviews with the acclaimed filmmakers themselves.
On this year’s Disney Animated Shorts Collection you’ll find Prep & Landing: Operation Secret Santa. It’s a cute little film that has the elves helping out Mrs. Claus in a tight bind. Plus, all of the shorts included in the collection are all great, including my favorite of the bunch, Paperman.
Here’s the full list of shorts:
- Frozen Fever (2015), Feast (2014), Get A Horse! (2013), Paperman (2012), Tangled Ever After (2012), The Ballad of Nessie (2011), Tick Tock Tale (2010), Prep & Landing: Operation Secret Santa (2010), How to Hook Up Your Home Theater (2007), The Little Matchgirl (2006), Lorenzo (2004), and John Henry (2000)
(Watch it now)

The Nightmare Before Christmas (Henry Selick) Rated PG [76 min] – Jack Skellington, king of Halloween Town, discovers Christmas Town, but doesn’t quite understand the concept. Starring Danny Elfman, Chris Sarandon, and Catherine O’Hara
Despite director Henry Selick confirming that The Nightmare Before Christmas is in fact a “Halloween movie,” the film is still an exceptional watch during the holidays. Because for us horror fans, it’s Halloween 24/7/365, or 366 next year.

Love Actually (Richard Curtis) Rated R [135 min] – Follows the lives of eight very different couples in dealing with their love lives in various loosely interrelated tales all set during a frantic month before Christmas in London, England. Starring Hugh Grant, Martine McCutcheon, Kiera Knightley, Bill Nighy, Andrew Lincoln, Colin Firth, and Liam Neeson
Pretty sure Love Actually has become essential holiday viewing for many since its release in 2003.
(Watch it now)
Source: Buzzfeed
Fireplace for Your Home (Netflix) [60 min] – This edition includes a crackling yule log set to holiday favorites such as “Joy to the World” and “We Wish You a Merry Christmas.”
Having a Christmas party? This crackling fire place is the best thing to throw on in the background if you want to set a nice ambiance for your guests.

A Christmas Carol (1938) (Edwin L. Marin) Not Rated [69 min] – A greedy miser is given an otherworldly opportunity to redeem himself on Christmas Eve, when three spirits take him on a journey of revelation. Starring Reginald Owen, Gene Lockhart, Kathleen Lockhart
I haven’t seen this first adaptation of A Christmas Carol, but I’m sure it is adequate enough if you’re looking to watch this classic story.

White Christmas (Michael Curtiz) Not Rated [120 min] – A successful song-and-dance team become romantically involved with a sister act and team up to save the failing Vermont inn of their former commanding general. Starring Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, and Rosemary Clooney
I’ve never understood why White Christmas has been such a holiday staple in cinema history. I think the story is uninteresting, it’s overly long, and I don’t feel the romantic chemistry that much. However, the singing and dancing are grand, the production is great, and the acting is stellar. I just don’t know. Someone help me figure out this conundrum.

Happy Christmas (Joe Swanberg) Rated R [82 min] – After a break up, Jenny moves in with writer Kelly, her filmmaker husband, and their child. Despite a rocky start, Jenny’s influence helps Kelly realize that an evolution in her life, career and relationship is necessary for her happiness. Starring Anna Kendrick, Melanie Lynskey, Mark Webber, and Joe Swanberg
Not your typical Christmas bread and butter, Happy Christmas flirts more with the idea of family and being there or one another. Christmas is used as a backdrop.
(Watch it now)
A Very Murray Christmas (Sofia Coppola) Rated TV-MA [56 min] – Bill Murray worries no one will show up to his T.V. show due to a terrible snow-storm in New York City. Starring Bill Murray, Paul Shaffer, Rashida Jones, Jason Schwartzman, Maya Rudolph, Jenny Lewis, David Johansen, George Clooney, Miley Cyrus, Michael Cera, and Chris Rock
It’s Bill Murray singing Christmas carols with celebrity guests. What more could you really ask for?

Bad Santa (Terry Zwigoff) Rated R [91 min] – A miserable conman and his partner pose as Santa and his Little Helper to rob department stores on Christmas Eve. But they run into problems when the conman befriends a troubled kid, and the security boss discovers the plot. Starring Billy Bob Thornton, Bernie Mac, and Lauren Graham
Bad Santa is truly one of the best Christmas comedies I have seen thus far in my life. It’s sharp, raunchy, and everything your traditional Christmas movie isn’t while still maintaining the spirit of the holiday season. What other movie are you going to find a drunk mall Santa piss himself while also shacking up with a senile grandmother and her socially inept, cherub faced grandson?
(Watch it now)

Mean Girls (Mark Water) Rated PG-13 [97 min] – Cady Heron is a hit with The Plastics, the A-list girl clique at her new school, until she makes the mistake of falling for Aaron Samuels, the ex-boyfriend of alpha Plastic Regina George. Starring Lindsay Lohan, Tina Fey, Jonathan Bennett, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, Lacey Chabert, Lizzy Caplan, Daniel Franzese, Neil Flynn, Rajiv Surendra, Amy Poehler, Amy Gasteyer, and Tim Meadows
Sure, Mean Girls only celebrates Christmas for about eight minutes, but they are eight glorious minutes. Who doesn’t yell out “FOUR FOR YOU GLEN COCO! YOU GO GLEN COCO!”? Who hasn’t memorized Kevin G and the Power of 3’s rap lyrics? I would find it hard to believe you don’t dance along with the Plastics during the Winter Talent Show to “Jingle Bell Rock”. Plus, Mean Girls is such an awesome movie anyways.

Netflix Streaming Report: A Very Murray Christmas
Welcome to your Netflix Streaming Report for December 10, 2015. After the long week you deserve a relaxing staycation with a bowl of popcorn, a bucket of ice cream, and only your Netflix queue to judge you. This past week, Netflix Watch Instant has been kind enough to supply us with A Very Murray Christmas, Phoenix, Vampire Academy, and more.
A Very Murray Christmas (Sofia Coppola) Rated TV-MA [56 min] – Bill Murray worries no one will show up to his T.V. show due to a terrible snow-storm in New York City. Starring Bill Murray, Paul Shaffer, Rashida Jones, Jason Schwartzman, Maya Rudolph, Jenny Lewis, David Johansen, George Clooney, Miley Cyrus, Michael Cera, and Chris Rock
Bill Murray, Christmas jingles, and a slew of celebrity appearances. What more could you ask for in a brisk, one-hour holiday special? It’s not going to replace A Charlie Brown Christmas, Christmas Vacation, Home Alone, or It’s a Wonderful Life, but it is a fun little celebration that would be nice to have on as background noise with all the great musical numbers.

Phoenix (Christian Petzold) Rated PG-13 [98 min] – A disfigured concentration-camp survivor, unrecognizable after facial reconstruction surgery, searches ravaged postwar Berlin for the husband who might have betrayed her to the Nazis. Starring Nina Hoss, Ronald Zehrfeld, and Nina Kunzendorf
I haven’t had a second to sit back and enjoy what is being named as one of the year’s best releases. The subject matter may be difficult for some to stomach, but from what I’ve heard from others, Phoenix is a really good watch

Vampire Academy (Mark Waters) Rated PG-13 [104 min] – Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, half human/vampire, guardians of the Moroi, peaceful, mortal vampires living discretely within our world. Her legacy is to protect the Moroi from bloodthirsty, immortal Vampires, the Strigoi. This is her story. Starring Zoey Deutch, Lucy Fry, Danila Kozlovsky, and Gabriel Byrne
True Blood, The Vampire Diaries, The Twilight Saga, and Underworld, you would think someone would catch on that we’ve had a bit of an overload on the whole niche as of late, right? Vampire Academy in no way helps bring vampires back into the forefront of pop culture, it reinforces the fact that someone needs to drive a stake into the genre to put it to rest. Without the enthusiasm of the young cast Vampire Academy would have been insufferable. [Read my full review]

Netflix Streaming Report: Tangerine, Hook, American Beauty, and More
Welcome to your Netflix Streaming Report for December 3, 2015. After the long week you deserve a relaxing staycation with a bowl of popcorn, a bucket of ice cream, and only your Netflix queue to judge you. This past week, Netflix Watch Instant has been kind enough to supply us with Tangerine, Hook, American Beauty, Super Size me, Best of Enemies, and more.
Source: MTV
Tangerine (Sean Baker) Rated R [88 min] – A working girl tears through Tinseltown on Christmas Eve searching for the pimp who broke her heart. Starring Kitana Kiki Rodriguez, Mya Taylor, and Karren Karagulian
There’s been a lot of talking about Tangerine. It’s been popping up on some critics’ Best of 2015 lists. I didn’t really know what to expect when I sat down to watch it this past week. It’s a very original story that has heart in all the right places. I don’t think the history between characters Sin-Dee and Alexandra is as fleshed out as it needs to be in order to feel the weight of their decisions on one another, but the time spent with the two certainly creates just enough resonance to understand their plight. Tangerine is wildly unlike anything I’ve seen in quite some time and it definitely stands to be one of the more honest stories about friendship in 2015.

American Beauty (Sam Mendes) Rated R [122 min] – A sexually frustrated suburban father has a mid-life crisis after becoming infatuated with his daughter’s best friend. Starring Kevin Spacey, Annette Bening, Mena Suvari, and Thora Birch
Call me nostalgic, there’s something about American Beauty that fascinated me as a young lad. Not because there are boobs or a mumbling emo kid who video tapes everything, but I just knew deep down that this film would be important. Besides winning the Oscar for Best Picture and Best Actor (Spacey), there’s something truly raw and deeply emotional that has stuck with me and probably with many others who have seen it. Sam Mendes has crafted a remarkable film in every way possible.

Hook (Steven Spielberg) When Captain Hook kidnaps his children, an adult Peter Pan must return to Neverland and reclaim his youthful spirit in order to challenge his old enemy. Dustin Hoffman, Robin Williams, Julia Roberts, and Bob Hoskins
Maybe it’s because I was raised at the time of its release, but I will never understand the hate toward Hook. It’s colorful, energetic, and it’s highly quotable. The production design is beautiful, the costumes are inventive, and it has Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Julia Robers, and Bob Hoskins. What more could you want people? Are you not entertained? Tell me!

A League of Their Own (Penny Marshall) Rated PG [128 min] – Two sisters join the first female professional baseball league and struggle to help it succeed amidst their own growing rivalry. Starring Geena Davis, Lori Petty, Madonna, Roise O’Donnell, and Tom Hanks
This movie is important on so many levels. A League of Their Own is a brilliantly told ensemble piece full of extraordinary women. Why don’t we have more movies about women in sports? It’s kind of interesting if you think about it. Everyone needs to see this movie.

Best of Enemies (Robert Gordon and Morgan Neville) Rated R [87 min] – A documentary on the series of televised debates in 1968 between the liberal Gore Vidal and the conservative William F. Buckley Jr. Starring Gore Vidal, William F. Buckley, and Dick Cavett
I haven’t seen Best of Enemies, but I’ve heard good things and that it has Oscar potential.
