The White Tiger


The White Tiger, another Oscar-nominated film that will be available on Netflix in 2021, is an adaptation of the famous 2008 book. Balram (Adarsh Gourav), a guy from a rural Indian hamlet who will go to any length to avoid living in poverty, stars in the film. Balram realizes his place in the food chain – and designs his own ascension as an entrepreneur – when he enters the service of a wealthy family and they attempt to frame him for a crime. This Netflix original dark class drama is certainly worth watching.

The Mitchells vs the Machines

Netflix purchased this new animated film from Sony and producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller, who are most known for their work on The Lego Movie and 21 Jump Street, as well as being part of the team behind Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. It's also as delightful and amusing as those films.  Katie Mitchell (Abbi Jacobson) is an aspiring filmmaker preparing to start college – until her father cancels her plane ticket and insists on a family road trip, realizing that they've been drifting apart. Halfway through this perilous voyage, an AI exacts vengeance on its rich founder, and the planet is now threatened by intelligent robots. Many of the visual elements from Spider-Verse make their way into this film, including 2D comments and doodles on top of the already stunning 3D graphics.
