Top picks
Mr. & Mrs. Smith: Season 1 (February 2)
An episodic remix of the Brangelina film of the same name, this Prime original sees comedy stars Donald Glover and Maya Erskine deep undercover, forced into a fake marriage to get their real spy work done. Now partners in marriage and profession, each new episode follows the pair as they reluctantly draw closer to one another, discovering they might be a legit good match with each hit, heist and adventure. Let’s hope this pair’s chemistry together lives up to their charisma in their own individual projects.
You Hurt My Feelings (February 13)
In the latest collaboration between writer-director Nicole Holofcener and her muse Julia Louis-Dreyfus, a writer’s world is shattered when she learns that her husband isn’t actually a fan of the book she’s been working on for years. Is it a cruel personal betrayal, or just a tough truth to accept: that our loved ones might not always understand our deepest inner workings? Such big questions of marriage, work, and identity are played out in funny, authentic detail, through biting dialogue and twisty, passive-aggressive turns. Clearly Louis-Dreyfus is the master of this, and she never shies away from her character’s worst impulses here.
This Is Me…Now: A Love Story (February 16)
If you end up having a crappy Valentine’s Day this Feb, try putting yourself in J.Lo’s shoes for once. She’s a triple-threat who has no other choice in life but to chronicle her romantic adventures in the form of a feature-length homage to her own past and feelings! Have some sympathy for a truly heartbroken soul, you selfish bastard. Directed by music video master Dave Meyers, this movie looks like a gonzo voyage into the CGI-heavy depths of Lopez’s ego, with glam dance sequences, a million costume changes, and one Benjamin Affleck sure to appear.
