The Best TV Shows & Movies Coming To HBO Max In September 2020
The HBO Max library continues to grow, and September offers up some exciting titles. Now if only HBO Max and Roku could settle their dispute so more people could take advantage. Here are the best TV shows and movies coming to HBO Max in September 2020.
The Invisible Man
One of the year's best films – and not just because there really haven't been that many films this year – The Invisible Man is a brilliant reimagining of the classic story. Leigh Whannell directs Elisabeth Moss in this #MeToo horror movie about an abused woman who is convinced her dead boyfriend is still alive – and invisible. Moss, the queen of playing unhinged women, turns in yet another stellar, off-the-wall performance at the center of a genuinely tense, disturbing film.
JFK
Oliver Stone's star-studded, brilliantly-edited thriller is 100% bullshit. Seriously, gang – nothing is this movie is close to historically accurate. But that doesn't mean it's not a great movie. Packing a ton of (fictional) info throughout a paranoia-style drama, JFK attempts to blow the lid of the Kennedy Assassination by suggesting literally everyone on the planet was somehow in on a conspiracy. Even if you don't buy into what Stone is selling (and you really, really shouldn't), the filmmaking prowess on display here is unmistakable.
The Conversation
Speaking of paranoid thrillers, The Conversation is Francis Ford Coppola at his best, directing Gene Hackman as a surveillance expert who thinks he's uncovered a murder plot. Cold, clinical, and often disturbing, this is a haunting, lonely film anchored by a killer performance from Hackman. Coppola made this in between The Godfather and The Godfather Part II, which is kind of amazing in its own right.
Wes Craven's New Nightmare
Before he went meta with Scream, Wes Craven helmed Wes Craven's New Nightmare, a film that blends fact with fiction to perfection. A Nightmare on Elm Street star Heather Langenkamp plays a fictionalized version of herself, still living in the shadow of her final girl role. But if she thought being typecast was a bad thing, just wait until she realizes Freddy Krueger somehow found his way out of the movies and into the real world.
Point Break
One of the best action movies ever, period. Keanu Reeves is an FBI Agent undercover, infiltrating a gang of bank-robbing surfers. The gang is lead by Patrick Swayze, and Reeves' lawman finds himself unexpectedly drawn to the charismatic bad guy. Kathryn Bigelow directs the hell out of this thing. Point Break forever.
