The historical epic starring Joaquin Phoenix as the French leader and Vanessa Kirby as his wife Jos\u00e9phine divided critics upon its release, for its unexpected tone and humor. As AP Film Writer Jake Coyle wrote in his review:<\/a> \u201cDon\u2019t mistake \u2018Napoleon\u2019 for your average historical epic\u2026 Here is a sweeping historical tapestry with a damning, almost satirical portrait at its center. That mix \u2014 Scott\u2019s spectacle and Phoenix\u2019s the-emperor-has-no-clothes performance \u2014 makes \u2018Napoleon\u2019 a rivetingly off-kilter experience.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Adam Sandler is Jakob Proch\u00e1zka, an astronaut on a solo mission to the edge of the solar system in the sci-fi drama \u201cSpaceman,\u201d<\/a> debuting on Netflix on Friday, March 1. Isabella Rossellini is his commanding officer, while Carey Mulligan plays the wife he left behind on earth. And Paul Dano voices an extraterrestrial spider named Hanu\u0161. From director Johan Renck (who helmed all five episodes of HBO\u2019s chilling \u201cChernobyl\u201d series), the film is based on a 2017 novel \u201cSpaceman of Bohemia.\u201d<\/p>\n \u2014 For families looking for something new, Peacock Kids has a DreamWorks sequel in \u201cMegamind vs. the Doom Syndicate,\u201d<\/a> streaming Friday, March 1 with Keith Ferguson replacing Will Ferrell as the voice of the reformed villain. <\/p>\n \u2014 The Criterion Channel also has an amusing new series (out Friday, March 1) devoted to Razzie Award<\/a> recipients, including \u201cHeaven\u2019s Gate,\u201d \u201cIshtar,\u201d \u201cCocktail,\u201d \u201cShowgirls,\u201d and \u201cGigli,\u201d some of which have turned into beloved classics, and some of which haven\u2019t. But that\u2019s up to the viewer to decide if, in the case of Elaine May\u2019s \u201cIshtar,\u201d they\u2019re still with Roger Ebert, who called it \u201ca truly dreadful film, a lifeless, massive, lumbering exercise in failed comedy\u201d or if they\u2019re on the side of fans like Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino.<\/p>\n \u2014 AP Film Writer Lindsey Bahr<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Paula Cole will this week release \u201cLo,\u201d her first collection of entirely original songs in nearly a decade. The Grammy-winner has released three singles from the 11-track set, including \u201cInvisible Armor,\u201d<\/a> a very personal ballad in which she sings \u201cI am lonely at the center of my life.\u201d Other singles are the funky \u201cThe Replacements & Dinosaur Jr.\u201d<\/a> and the haunting \u201cGreen Eyes Crying.\u201d<\/a> \u201cThe autobiographical snapshots touch on identity, social justice and historical narratives,\u201d says the singer in a statement.<\/p>\n \u2014 The use of rap lyrics as evidence in criminal trials is common but controversial. The new Paramount+ documentary \u201cAs We Speak: Rap Music on Trial\u201d<\/a> reveals how law enforcement has quietly used artistic creation against defendants for decades. Directed by J.M. Harper and featuring rapper Kemba, the movie doesn\u2019t ask whether someone is innocent or guilty; it asks whether lyrics can be used for conviction. The doc played the Sundance Film Festival and hits the streaming platform Tuesday. <\/p>\n \u2014 Celebrate the sound of Manchester by checking out the teaming up of Oasis\u2019 singer Liam Gallagher and guitarist John Squire from The Stone Roses. Two singles \u2014 ” Just Another Rainbow\u201d<\/a> and \u201cMars To Liverpool\u201d<\/a> \u2014 mix rock \u2018n\u2019 roll, indie sludge and \u201960s psychedelia. Their self-titled album out Friday, March 1, features Greg Kurstin, who produced and played bass, and drums by Joey Waronker (Beck, R.E.M., Atoms For Peace). Gallagher and Squire, long-term friends, sparked the idea of a collaboration when Squire joined Gallagher onstage at his recent shows at Knebworth, the site of Oasis\u2019s iconic two-night stand in 1996. Pop the champagne for these two supernovas.<\/p>\n \u2014 AP Entertainment Writer Mark Kennedy<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 FX\u2019s newest series is the Japanese historical drama \u201cShogun\u201d<\/a> based on a novel published in 1975 by James Clavell. Some may also remember a 1980 miniseries, also based on the book, that starred Richard Chamberlain and was a huge hit at the time. This 10-episode version is described as a more faithful adaptation to the scope of the novel, as Clavell\u2019s daughter, Michaela, is an executive producer. The epic tale is set hundreds of years ago in Japan under the rule of military dictators known as Shogun. The first two episodes of \u201cShogun\u201d premiere Tuesday on FX and Hulu.<\/p>\n \u2014 A new Disney+ animated series called \u201cIw\u00e1j\u00fa\u201d<\/a> is a coming-of-age story set in the future in Lagos, Nigeria. Presented in a comic book-style, the story follows Tola and Kole, two best friends with a strong bond despite coming from different class systems. Their friendship is tested by a tech guru who uses his expertise to distract from a secret criminal underworld. All six episodes of \u201cIw\u00e1j\u00fa\u201d stream Wednesday on Disney+.<\/p>\n \u2014 There were many great recurring characters on \u201cThe Good Wife\u201d and \u201cThe Good Fight,\u201d but one of the best was Carrie Preston\u2019s Elsbeth Tascioni as a scatter-brained, sweet, whip-smart lawyer who is often underestimated. In the new drama \u201cElsbeth,\u201d<\/a> premiering Thursday on CBS, Tascioni is the star of her own story, starting over in New York with a new job working as an investigator for the NYPD. Episodes also stream on Paramount+.<\/p>\n \u2014 Jamie Dornan is back as \u201cThe Tourist\u201d<\/a> and you can find him on Netflix. The series originally aired on BBC where it drew strong ratings, and season one streamed on Max. Now, Netflix has acquired both of the show\u2019s two seasons. Season one is already streaming and season two becomes available Thursday. The series begins with Dornan known as The Man after a car crash in the Australian outback wiped his memory. He has no idea who he is or why he\u2019s there, and any clues point to a dark past. Season two takes Dornan\u2019s Man and his girlfriend to Ireland as the mystery continues.<\/p>\n \u2014 Alicia Rancilio<\/a>,<\/p>\n \u2014 Final Fantasy VII is unquestionably a landmark in video-game history, so publisher Square Enix went all out when it decided to remake it, turning the 1997 blockbuster into an epic trilogy. Part one, 2020\u2019s Final Fantasy VII Remake, won over new fans without tarnishing the memories of old-timers, so here comes part two, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth<\/a>. Our hero, Cloud, and his friends are still fighting a power company that\u2019s sucking the world\u2019s resources dry, while the villainous Sephiroth is plotting a different kind of global destruction. There\u2019s a doozy of a plot twist about two-thirds of the way into the original; whether Square decides to recreate that moment is still a mystery. We\u2019ll all find out Thursday on PlayStation 5.<\/p>\nNEW MOVIES TO STREAM<\/h2>\n
