Even at Christmas, we bring you tips on news from VOD platforms.
Christmas is just around the corner and with it a bunch of holiday movies from Beds over Cinderella up to Frosty. Just because you have a tree at home doesn’t mean you have to watch Christmas movies. After all, the holidays won’t stop us from preparing you a tip for a movie from the current offer of streaming platforms, like every Friday. And this week it’s an obvious choice.
On Netflix, you will find a new film from this year’s Vary, which could (and should) have represented the Czech Republic at the Oscars. But if you are not too fond of Czech cinematography, we have also prepared for you an unconventional romance from Amazon Prime.
But if we didn’t hit your taste this week, you don’t have to worry that you’ll only have Christmas movies to watch. We regularly prepare tips for movies on VOD services for you every week. You can find them all together in the section What to play on the weekend.
