With a seemingly endless amount of streaming options—not only the titles at our disposal, but services themselves–each week we highlight the noteworthy titles that have recently hit platforms. Check out this week’s selections below and past round-ups here.
Bungalow (Ulrich Köhler)
Ulrich Köhler remains underseen—even by the standards of Berlin School brethren Christian Petzold and Maren Ade—and a 4K restoration of his 2002 debut Bungalow comes at the right time: its story of isolation, frayed connections, and romantic infatuation foreground an only idyllic-seeming summer getaway. 18 years on, not a shred of it feels dated or resolved, down to a conclusion that puts one in mind of ’70s American classics.

Netflix is constantly expanding and evolving, so you can always count on multiple weekly updates to their extensive list of movies and TV shows. Among the various titles released this week, we’ve seen the service drop a forgotten Zac Efron flick, Charlie St. Cloud, and the unexpectedly popular horror stinker, The Darkness. It can go either way – some days are filled to the brim with popular hits, and some days are just a bunch of junk no one actually cares about. Then you have days like today where it’s a mixed bag of both – but let’s focus on a few of the positives, shall we?
Hitting the platform today is season 2 of the snarky and humorous teen fantasy show, The Order. The series follows a college student as he uncovers the mysteries of a secret organization that teaches and uses magic, but not everything is as it originally seems.
