Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot – Prime 2/8
The Sisters Brothers – Hulu 2/18
Velvet Buzzsaw – Netflix 2/1
High Flying Bird – Netflix 2/8
If you need more proof that Joaquin Phoenix is one of our most versatile actors, check out the first of his two films from 2018. (His best performance from last year, in You Were Never Really Here, is already on Prime.) The former is the biopic of quadriplegic cartoonist John Callahan. The latter is the dark comedy Western co-starring John C. Reilly, in one of his best performances.
The two Netflix titles are among their most tantalizing offerings to date. The former is Dan Gilroy’s horror-comedy about art that comes to life to kill the likes of Billy Magnussen, Toni Collette and Jake Gyllenhaal. The latter is Steven Soderbergh’s latest iPhone-shot epic, a behind-the-scenes basketball drama written by Moonlight’s Tarell Alvin McCraney.

Lorena – Prime 2/15
One of the biggest tabloid stories of the ’90s was Lorena Bobbit’s castration of her abusive husband. But 25 years later, we remember the punchlines, but probably not the whole story. This Jordan Peele-produced doc series hopes to illuminate the truth from the jokes.

Top Pick
Ray Romano: Right Here, Around the Corner – Netflix 2/5
Romano has had a great second act post-Raymond, turning into a solid dramatic actor. His first stand-up special in 20 years will hopefully prove he hasn’t lost a step there.
