Steve Stebbing has a theory he tests twice this week, once on a low budget thriller and again on a big budget superhero series. The verdict might surprise you.

Three New Releases and the Film That Proves the Point
A sixth entry in a well known horror franchise, a Jason Statham film about human trafficking on the high seas, and a road trip thriller shot almost entirely on a phone all make the list. Steve breaks down why the smallest budget of the three might be the strongest film.

A Detective Take on a Classic Hero, and What's Coming Before Fall
Steve gets into the creative team behind a new murder-mystery take on a familiar superhero, a Nat Geo series that follows one lion's full journey, and the final season of a long running Netflix drama, then previews what's landing before autumn.

Topics: weekend streaming guide, new movie releases, superhero TV series, nature documentaries, fall streaming preview
