We round up everything coming to streaming services this week, including Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV, ThreeNow, Neon and TVNZ+.<\/p>\n
Licence to Drive (ThreeNow, Neon, November 4)<\/p>\n
Now in its second season, the inspiring and illuminating Licence to Drive features a new group of Kiwi drivers with disabilities who are taking on the challenge of getting behind the wheel. Alongside some returning fan favourites who are taking the next step in their driving journeys, the feel-good watch sees the drivers work with their instructors, wh\u0101nau and support networks to make this transformative rite of passage work for them. Be sure to strap in for this heartfelt ride. <\/p>\n
Scarfies (Neon, November 7)<\/p>\n
Few Kiwi films are as beloved as Robert Sarkies 1999 film Scarfies, the cult classic comic thriller \u201cthat gave Taika Waititi his big break.\u201d<\/a> Shot and set in Dunedin, this homage to the city’s notorious student culture follows five first-year students who move into a dilapidated and seemingly empty flat. In the basement of their filthy but free flat they stumble upon a stash of marijuana that they sell to a local dealer. Their sudden windfall goes sideways when the plant’s real owner returns, commencing a \u201cskilfully modulated descent into progressively darker, crazier territory.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n Black Doves (Netflix, November 5)<\/p>\n According to one critic Black Doves is \u201cdestined to become one of the most beloved spy thrillers of the decade, if given a second season\u201d<\/a>. Let\u2019s see if they\u2019re right as Keira Knightley\u2019s Helen Webb and Ben Whishaw\u2019s Sam Young are back and they\u2019ve got plenty of unfinished business. She\u2019s continuing to feed classified national secrets to the covert Black Doves organisation whilst her husband, Wallace Webb (Andrew Buchan), is preparing to become prime minister. It\u2019s not long till before Webb reunites with Young, and together they\u2019ll come face-to-face with old friends and foes as they fight to protect those that they love.<\/p>\n Apocalypse (TVNZ+, November 7)<\/p>\n In Apocalypse, a ridiculous end-of-days reality survival TV show, fourteen ordinary people from the UK and Australia are put to the ultimate test. This group of unsuspecting and hapless strangers are split into two rival camps and abandoned in a town that has no electricity, running water or food. They\u2019re unaware of each other’s existence and must survive for 28 days. Described as \u201can absolute slam dunk,\u201d<\/a> Apocalypse is one to smugly enjoy from the comfort of a sofa.<\/p>\n North by Northwest (HBO Max, November 6)<\/p>\n With the recent passing of the Oscar-winning Eva Marie Saint, one of the last icons of the golden age of Hollywood, now\u2019s the time to revisit Alfred Hitchcock’s North by Northwest, the Master of Suspense\u2019s \u201cfunniest, most ridiculous and visually ambitious film.\u201d<\/a> In the spy thriller the dashing and legendary Cary Grant is Roger Thornhill, a successful Madison Avenue advertising executive who is mistaken for another man and kidnapped in broad daylight by the agents of a mysterious organization. After escaping his sinister captors, Thornhill is then pursued across America. He, of course, has a Hitchcock blonde for company; Saint\u2019s Eve Kendall.<\/p>\n Pick of the Flicks: Possible Love (Netflix, November 6)<\/p>\n Fresh from its premiere at the Venice International Film Festival where it won the Grand Jury Prize, Possible Love is the latest outing from the acclaimed Lee Chang-dong (Burning). The sprawling story follows two married couples from contrasting social classes whose paths cross in a \u201cprofound meditation on trauma, loss of dignity, yearning and class envy.\u201d<\/a> Labelled as \u201cone for the ages,\u201d<\/a> this Oscar Contender is a must-see.<\/p>\n The rest<\/p>\n Netflix<\/p>\n Bass X Machina (November 3)<\/p>\n Mike Tyson: Return of the Mike (November 3)<\/p>\n Anaesthesia (November 4)<\/p>\n A Dog’s Perfect Christmas (November 4)<\/p>\n Taken: Natalee Holloway (November 4)<\/p>\n Ninho: Fame Ain\u2019t Worth It (November 4)<\/p>\n The Elf on the Shelf: Scout Elf Squad S1-S2 (November 4)<\/p>\n Black Doves S2 (November 5)<\/p>\n North of North S2 (November 5)<\/p>\n One Year to Live, Buy a Man (November 5)<\/p>\n Overacting (November 5)<\/p>\n Interstellar (November 5)<\/p>\n Transformers (November 5)<\/p>\n Under Siege (November 6)<\/p>\n Possible Love (November 6)<\/p>\n Unprotected: Murder in Galicia (November 6)<\/p>\n It Ends With Us (November 6)<\/p>\n The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (November 8)<\/p>\n WWE Crown Jewel: 2026 (November 8)<\/p>\n TVNZ+<\/p>\n Xena: Warrior Princess S1-S6 (November 1)<\/p>\n Dead Ahead S2 (November 3)<\/p>\n St Denis Medical S3 (November 3)<\/p>\n Sicario (November 4)<\/p>\n Sicario: Day of the Soldado (November 4)<\/p>\n First Dates Australia S6 (November 5)<\/p>\n Adultery (November 5)<\/p>\n 1News: The Q&A People\u2019s Debate (November 5)<\/p>\n Apocalypse (November 7)<\/p>\n Steve Irwin: A Wild Life (November 7)<\/p>\n M\u0100ORI+<\/p>\n Stop Making Sense (November 2)<\/p>\n Ratchet & Clank (November 6)<\/p>\n Cousins (November 6)<\/p>\n Anatomy of a Fall (November 8)<\/p>\n ThreeNow<\/p>\n Licence to Drive S2 (November 4)<\/p>\n The Assassin S2 (November 6)<\/p>\n Neon<\/p>\n Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown S7 (November 3)<\/p>\n Long Shadows (November 3)<\/p>\n Panda Plan (November 3)<\/p>\n Zac and Wowo (November 3)<\/p>\n Chang\u2019an (November 3)<\/p>\n Extinction (November 3)<\/p>\n Gunpowder S1 (November 4)<\/p>\n The Fitbit Killer S1 (November 4)<\/p>\n Licence to Drive S2 (November 4)<\/p>\n Wild Mountain Thyme (November 4)<\/p>\n Logan Lucky (November 4)<\/p>\n NCIS S18 (November 5)<\/p>\n Prey S2 (November 5)<\/p>\n Arianne Phillips: Dressing the Part (November 5)<\/p>\n This Boy\u2019s Life (November 5)<\/p>\n Wilding (November 5)<\/p>\n Couture (November 5)<\/p>\n Pride & Prostitution (November 6)<\/p>\n Fog of War (November 6)<\/p>\n The Wrecking Crew (November 6)<\/p>\n My Old Ass (November 6)<\/p>\n Murder at the Embassy (November 7)<\/p>\n Scarfies (November 7)<\/p>\n Undertone (November 7)<\/p>\n Untitled Home Invasion Romance (November 8)<\/p>\n Code 3 (November 8)<\/p>\n Prime Video<\/p>\n The Greatest (November 4)<\/p>\n The Mongoose (November 4)<\/p>\n The Traitors Italy S2 (November 6)<\/p>\n Campus Drivers (November 6)<\/p>\n Devils’ Crest (November 7)<\/p>\n Disney+<\/p>\n All\u2019s Fair: Season 2 (November 4)<\/p>\n The Remarried Empress (November 4)<\/p>\n R.J.
