The Expatriate

The new movies added today include soccer documentary Anelka: Misunderstood, stand up special Sam Jay 3: In the Morning and Malibu Rescue: The Next Wave, the latest installment in Netflix’s children’s comedy franchise. And no, 2019’s Sin City has nothing to do with the Frank Miller comic or the Robert Rodriguez movie. It’s actually an African drama about a workaholic couple who take a weekend away only for their relationship to face a crisis.

The most notable new film has to be 2012’s The Expatriate (also known as Erased), an action-thriller starring The Dark Knight‘s Aaron Eckhart as a security expert living in Belgium who has to save himself and his daughter after they’re targeted for assassination. It was actually only just removed from Netflix back in February, but now it’s back after a break of six months.

As for the TV shows, there’s Immigration Nation, an eye-opening look at U.S. immigration enforcement, the first season of Netflix’s fun science show Mystery Lab and crime docuseries World’s Most Wanted.
