Ben & Jody (2022)
Trailer
Why watch this film?
From Indonesia comes this interesting Netflix-exclusive action movie. Interestingly, it is the third part of a trilogy originally called 'Filosofi Kopi' and started in 2015. After starting their adventure in a small cafe and then deciding to go around Indonesia to distribute the "best coffee", Ben and Jody now must defend a group of farmers against the villains who want to dominate the lands of the small producers. It is a production very much in the climate of Indonesia, presenting us with another way of seeing action movies - and still with a social message.

Action
Furies
An exclusive Vietnamese action and revenge thriller on Netflix that thematically will remind you of "Promising Young Woman", but in action and style it is more reminiscent of "John Wick" and "Kill Bill". Although it is not as refined (or interesting) as its references, "Furies" will leave genre fans satisfied. The plot is somewhat scant: three furious and violent female vigilantes join forces to take down a sinister mafia that has made them victims. There is more substance in the action sequences than in its premise, but if you're looking for something visually impactful and entertaining, you'll like it.
