Henry Golding, Brandon Soo Hoo, Lucy Liu, Sandra Oh and Michelle Yeoh all star in this new animated adventure about a Chinese-American boy named Tom (Soo Hoo) who discovers a secret about his family. In a film that gives us Turning Red and Raya and the Last Dragon vibes, young Tom must become a magical protector known as a Guardian, like his family before him.

4. LOVER, STALKER, KILLER
Director: LSam Hobkinson
Release Date: February 9
Where to Stream it: Netflix
The film with the most intriguing title of the month is Lover, Stalker, Killer, a sinister documentary about a mechanic who tries online dating. But Dave’s first experience is no ordinary romance: two dates with promising women Liz and Cari turn first into a twisted love triangle and then into a four year nightmare for Dave. The documentary uses reenactments and testimonies – including those from the law enforcement officers who discovered it all – to convey what Dave went through and make for a tense watching experience.
5. SUNCOAST
Director: Laura Chinn
Release Date: February 9
Where to Stream it: Hulu/Disney Plus
Nico Parker, Laura Linney, Woody Harrelson and more star in Suncoast, one of the most exciting movies to stream this month. The film had its world premiere at Sundance 2024 and is about a teenager (Parker) who becomes friends with an eccentric activist (Harrelson) he meets while he’s looking after his brother with his mother (Linney). It’s a semi-autobiographical story, and this makes us even more excited for this Hulu release.
6. UPGRADED
Director: Carlson Young
Release Date: February 9
Where to Stream it: Prime Video
Camila Mendes plays Ana, an ambitious intern for a demanding boss (Marisa Tomei). Ana would like to have a career in the art world, and, one day, she gets a little closer to her dream when she’s upgraded to first class on a work trip. But that’s where she meets the handsome Will (Archie Renaux), who mistakes her for her boss, and chaos – but also romance and opportunity, as long as Will doesn’t discover her secret – ensues.
7. PLAYERS
Director: Trish Sie
Release Date: February 14
Where to Stream it: Netflix
Nothing screams Valentine’s Day more than this new Netflix film from director Trish Sie. In Players, Gina Rodriguez (Jane the Virgin) plays a New York sportswriter named Mack (Gina Rodriguez), who has spent years devising successful hook-up “plays” with her best friend Adam (Damon Wayans Jr.). One day, they decide to put a stop to all of this with a series of rules — no. one being that they can’t build a relationship from a play. Needless to say, Mack falls for her next target, a handsome war correspondent named Nick (Tom Ellis).
8. THIS IS ME…NOW: A LOVE STORY
Director: Dave Meyers
Release Date: February 16
Where to Stream it: Prime Video
The synopsis of This Is Me…Now: A Love Story tells us that the film is “like nothing you’ve ever seen from Jennifer Lopez”. Keeping in mind that JLo co-wrote, co-created, and stars in the film, which will drop at the same time as her highly anticipated new album – the first in 10 years! – we believe it. This Is Me…Now: A Love Story is a cinematic odyssey that’s all about storytelling and personal healing, where the musician shows us her journey to love. Among the names attached to the project are Fat Joe, Trevor Noah, Kim Petras, Post Malone, Keke Palmer, Sofia Vergara, Ben Affleck, and many more.
