Based on the novel of the same name, We Need to Talk About Kevin, Eva Khatchadourian (Tilda Swinton) is a travel writer who gives up her bohemian lifestyle to have a child with her husband, Franklin (John C. Reilly).

However, pregnancy does not agree with Eva, but what's worse and when she gives birth to a baby boy named Kevin, she can't seem to bond with him. Things go from bad to worse and when her sociopathic teenage son does something awful (Ezra Miller), Eva is forced to deal with the aftermath.

The content changes each month as titles are added and taken down, so there's always variety and something new to look at. Currently, Crackle is available in 21 countries, but sadly the UK is not yet on the list.

Train to Busan

Train to Busan's premise is simple but oh-so effective. In it, a man (Gong Yoo), his estranged daughter and other passengers become trapped on a speeding train during a zombie outbreak in South Korea, and naturally, chaos ensues.

There's a lot of zombie movies out there but this one's been widely praised with some claiming it's one of the best, so you'll have to be the judge of that!

Hunt for the Wilderpeople

In Hunt for the Wilderpeople, a boy (Julian Dennison) and his foster father (Sam Neill) become the subjects of a manhunt after they get stranded in the New Zealand wilderness, but it's told in a very comedic way.

It was an early film for Taika Waititi who has since gone on to direct things like JoJo Rabbit and Thor: Love and Thunder so if you're looking to check out his other work this is a great place to start.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi

This documentary follows 85-year-old Japanese sushi chef Jiro Ono and his tiny 10-seat restaurant located in a Tokyo subway station, which attracts visitors from around the globe.

Jiro's sushi is coveted but he only accepts certain reservations, and shows us his revolutionary new methods in contemporary sushi preparation, such as massaging octopus for much longer than usual to enhance flavour and texture and boiling prawns before serving. It's definitely not one to watch on an empty stomach!
