Even with mask mandates easing across the US, many are still not comfortable in crowds. As such, HBO Max has been releasing movies simultaneous with theater releases.
This week, Disney+ goes the same route, but instead of Cruella being free to subscribers, there is an additional fee to enjoy the movie from the comfort of your home. Will you pay the price?
If not, then you have plenty to do elsewhere with Lucifer Season 5 B dropping and the final season of The Kominsky Method, which is spectacular.
