Wondering what to watch on streaming?
Every week, MobileSyrup outlines some of the most notable new movies and TV shows. We typically focus on new content from Amazon’s Prime Video, Crave, Disney+ and Netflix, but other services like Apple TV+ and Paramount+ will be mentioned when relevant. Premium video-on-demand (PVOD) platforms are also fair game as movies continue to come to digital early.
Finally, we’ll highlight shows or movies that are made by Canadian companies, involve notable Canadian cast or crew, and/or are filmed in Canada.

Stream Wake Up Dead Man on Netflix.
For what it’s worth, I’ve seen the movie twice now and it’s one of my favourites of the year. It has Johnson’s sharp twisty-turny scripting and the colourful performances you’d expect (including a standout turn from O’Connor) but also a surprisingly emotional exploration of faith. Highly recommend.
