Netflix releases a number of films and series into its catalog every week, without anyone noticing them or the platform officially announcing them. Écran Large looks back at the new releases added by Netflix from September 6 to 12, 2024, including films and series in a non-exhaustive list.
What are the films and series not to be missed this week on the streaming platform?
Rebel Ridge
- Available September 6th
- Duration: 2h11
What is it about? An ex-Marine takes on corruption in a small American town when police wrongfully seize a bag containing money intended to pay his cousin’s bail.
Why should you watch it? « One mind. Any weapon » (« one mind, any weapon » in French). Using this famous Marine credo, we understand that Rebel Ridge not going to mince words. Presented as an action thriller, this feature film directed by Jeremy Saulnier will therefore immerse us in the confrontation between a former soldier and a brutal and corrupt police force. With this kind of pitch, it is difficult not to find big similarities with the first Rambo (First Blood in the original version), which told the story of a former Vietnam veteran who takes revenge on unjust police officers.
This is Aaron Pierre, who we have seen in particular in Brotherwho will play Terry Richmond, the main character of Rebel Ridge. In short, if you want things to explode, you’ve probably come to the right place.

Why should you watch it? Emily in Parisbut she won’t stay there after all! For the second part of season 4, Emily flies to Rome, originally for work, but also to meet up with the handsome Italian Marcello. Well, as you have understood, it is still a mess in the love life of Lily Collins’ character, who really cannot choose between this or that suitor (afterwards, we cannot say that she is helped).
Beyond the American’s plot and love affairs, This second part mainly aims to raise the level after the first episodes were generally considered disappointing.. In any case, moving the protagonist to another European capital will perhaps improve the pace of the series through new ideas, in addition to giving a little boost to Roman tourism, and ” Oh my God “we know she needs it…
