Crossing the Streams is our collection of guides all of the choices hitting the large streaming companies every month. This time we’re testing what’s new to streaming on Netflix in March 2024, together with 3 Physique Drawback from the creators of Sport of Thrones, a brand new Adam Sandler movie referred to as Spaceman, and extra!
Netflix Choose of the Month for March 2024
Opinions on Sport of Thrones proceed to differ wildly, however they’re nothing in comparison with opinions on the 2 creatives behind it — David Benioff and D.B.Weiss. Viewers who haven’t sworn off their collective creations will wish to tune in for his or her newest effort, 3 Physique Drawback (premieres March twenty first). An adaptation of the bestselling e-book by Cixin Liu, the collection follows a gaggle of scientists reeling from a far-reaching, intergalactic discovery with connections again to Nineteen Sixties China. Firmly established scientific ideas begin to crumble, and the best thriller the trendy universe has ever seen spreads its tendrils throughout the globe. The forged is usually comprised of newcomers (not less than to Western eyes) alongside Eiza González, Benedict Wong, and Liam Cunningham. The chance right here is that the present is phenomenal and grabs our curiosity instantly… solely to be canceled by Netflix. However let’s not get forward of ourselves!
New Netflix Originals
Adam Sandler’s manufacturing cope with Netflix — arguably the perfect such deal between any artistic and a manufacturing firm — has given us loads of dumb comedies over time, however there’s additionally been a handful of excellent occasions within the combine. His newest, Spaceman, leans away from broad comedy and right into a dramatic sci-fi journey a few lone astronaut pressured to depend on an alien being if he ever desires to make it again dwelling to Carey Mulligan. The creature is voiced by Paul Dano, and the movie appears to be an emotionally affecting story of survival and character. No, actually.
Hulu gave us the legit good Joey King-led motion/journey The Princess again in 2022 (earlier than taking it away from us as a result of Disney sucks ass), and now Netflix is following swimsuit with the Millie Bobby Brown fantasy automobile, Damsel (premieres March eighth). I don’t count on it to be almost nearly as good as The Princess, partly as a result of it appears to be extra concerned about conventional set-pieces versus enjoyable fights, however director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo has a strong resume with the likes of 28 Weeks Later (2007) and Intruders (2011), so I’m staying optimistic.
1953’s The Wages of Concern stays an all-timer within the suspense style, and William Friedkin’s 1977 remake, Sorcerer, maintains that top stage of high quality. This 12 months sees one more adaptation on Georges Arnaud’s supply novel with the French launch, The Wages of Concern (premieres March twenty ninth). Director Julien Leclercq has some low-key bangers in his filmography together with Sentinelle (2021), Earth and Blood (2020), and The Crew (2015), so the chances are good that he’s greater than succesful for the job in the case of constructing environment, rigidity, and thrills from a premise involving temperamental, explosive vans. And never for nothing, however the nice Alban Lenoir stars — search out Misplaced Bullet (2020) and Misplaced Bullet 2 (2022) in the event you haven’t already seen them — so I’m already totally alongside for the experience.
Nice Films You Could Have Missed

We used to get motion pictures like 21 Bridges (2019) all of the rattling time, mid-budget motion movies with participating leads and enjoyable set-pieces however with out the heavy overhead of epic CG antics, however they’re an endangered species today. So after they do come, we have to have fun. Brian Kirk’s entry into this specific subgenre stars the late Chadwick Boseman as cop caught up in one thing soiled that explodes right into a city-wide manhunt. It’s time and makes some artistic selections with the story that do properly at holding consideration and constructing suspense.
Talking of mid-budget gems, Carl Franklin’s Satan in a Blue Gown (1995) ought to have been the beginning of a franchise, however audiences failed it again in 1995.

Thriller, noir, conspiracy, racial tensions, and homicide all boil over right into a terrific time for viewers, and cinematographer Tak Fujimoto helps carry the interval to stunning life. Add in entertaining turns by Tom Sizemore, Jennifer Beals, and Don Cheadle, and a cameo by Washington’s younger son, John David Washington, and it’s a must-see.
Made for much much less cash and launched throughout a pandemic, Halina Reijn’s Our bodies Our bodies Our bodies (2020, premieres March twentieth) is a thriller of a unique form. Each a terrifically enjoyable horror movie and a scathing commentary on right this moment’s “on-line” tradition, the movie manages quite a few surprises whereas additionally delivering thrills and laughs.
