Marty Supreme and every new movie on Netflix, HBO, and more this weekend

It’s a very competitive week on streaming. You can chase down Timothée Chalamet on HBO Max, where he plays a 1950s table tennis hustler (and potential vampire slayer) in Marty Supreme. A man desperate to find a job so he can support his family starts killing other applicants in order to get ahead in Park Chan-wook’s No Other Choice, which finds a new position on Hulu.

Hunt up Apex on Netflix, where Charlize Theron is forced to play “The Most Dangerous Game” in the Australian wilderness. For something spooky, rent the folk horror Western The Wolf and the Lamb, where a missing boy returns home touched by evil.

Here’s a rundown of the most notable new releases on streaming and VOD, including the biggest, best, and most popular new movies you can watch at home right now.

New on Netflix

Apex

• Genre: Survival thriller
• Run time: 1h 36m
• Director: Baltasar Kormákur
• Cast: Charlize Theron, Taron Egerton, Eric Bana

Rock climber Sasha (Charlize Theron) seeks to test herself with a solo trip to explore the Australian wilderness. But she gets more of a challenge than she wanted when Ben (Taron Egerton) steals her gear and begins hunting her for sport. She has to use all her skills to turn the hunt in her favor.

From our review:

Director Baltasar Kormákur (2015’s survival thriller Everest) and cinematographer Lawrence Sher (Joker and Joker: Folie à Deux) give Apex a stunning lushness. The movie is packed with deep colors, glorious texture, and striking sequences, plus plenty of drone footage showcasing unspoiled, rough wilderness. Apex’s narrative simplicity (and the fact that it’s a Netflix movie) might lend itself to second-screen viewing, but anyone who lets their attention wander to their phone is going to miss some beautiful footage that makes this story seem a lot bigger than it is.
