Streaming Picks: June 2023

Top Picks
Tár – Prime Video 6/6
Avatar: The Way of Water – Disney+ and Max 6/7
While I wouldn’t consider Lydia Tár a “Strong Female Lead,” Cate Blanchett gave one of last year’s best performances in one of the best movies of last year: a twisty drama open to multiple interpretations.

Also one of last year’s best movies? James Cameron’s follow-up to his world-conquering ecological opus. It won’t look quite as good on even the largest TVs, but it’s still magnificently constructed and stunning to look at.

Everybody Hates Chris (Complete Series) – Prime Video 6/1
Before Tyler James Williams was causing nerds everywhere to swoon on Abbott Elementary, he was the precocious Chris Rock stand-in on this sitcom that merged two of my childhood favorites: The Wonder Years and The PJs. Fun fact: This is one of the most popular American shows in Brazil.
