Best New Titles on Netflix for July 14th, 2023
Bird Box Barcelona (2023)
Rating: TV-MA
Language: Spanish
Genre: Horror, Mystery, Sci-Fi
Director: David Pastor, Àlex Pastor
Cast: Georgina Campbell, Mario Casas, Diego Calva
Writer: Josh Malerman, David Pastor, Àlex Pastor
Runtime: 110 min / 1h 50m
It’s been five years since the Sandra Bullock movie Bird Box made waves on Netflix. After a long time in production, we’re now back with a Spanish-language iteration that picks up within the same universe as the original entry.
In our review of the movie from Andrew Morgan, he ultimately gave the movie a PAUSE rating stating:
“Overall, Bird Box: Barcelona is an improvement upon the original with its moral quandaries, cleaner storyline, & solid performances. However, there are so many retread beats & staged tensions that it feels mostly redundant and unnecessary in the current post-pandemic, “The Last of Us” dominated landscape in which we find ourselves.”
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022)
Rating: PG
Language: English
Genre: Animation, Adventure, Comedy
Director: Joel Crawford, Januel Mercado
Cast: Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Harvey Guillén
Writer: Paul Fisher, Tommy Swerdlow, Tom Wheeler
Runtime: 102 min / 1h 42m
Coming to Netflix via the refreshed Universal Animation deal is the second Puss in Boots which is widely considered to be one of the best animated movies of 2022 but not only that, one of Dreamwork’s best in its long history.
Dan Buffa of Dose of Buffa gave the movie a B rating, concluding, “Coming in at a brisk 100 minutes & carrying enough pop culture humor to fill two movies, this sequel gives you the goods. It’s a ticket to the Antonio Banderas show. He puts in wonderful voice work, infusing the sword-savvy feline with charisma & passion.”
