🍿 ‘Eileen’ Is One of the Best Noir Movies of the Decade

‘Eileen’ Is One of the Best Modern Takes on the Hitchcockian Thriller

No one thinks much of Eileen. The mousy young secretary at a juvenile detention center played by Thomasin McKenzie in William Oldroyd’s deliciously twisted psychosexual thriller Eileen has spent her entire life being overlooked by her bitter co-workers, her alcoholic father, and even by herself. And in her anonymous New England small town where the people are as frigid as the icy, unforgiving weather, it seems unlikely anything will ever change.

That is, until the glamorous new prison psychologist Rebecca (Anne Hathaway, relishing the chance to play the most femme of femme fatales) arrives to shake up the town — and Eileen’s life.

‘Obliterated’ Is a Spectacle of Explosions And Naked Body Parts

Here’s a list of things that happen in Netflix’s newest TV show:

  • A straight-edge military pilot accidentally gets high on magic mushrooms and hallucinates a talking gremlin, causing him to crash his helicopter.
  • Two soldiers hook up while a camel watches through the open door of their hotel room.
  • A man named Trunk beats a bunch of bad guys unconscious using a giant steak.
  • A skilled sniper seduces the bride-to-be at her own bachelorette party.

Obliterated packs a lot of raunchy humor and epic action into its eight hour-long episodes, while also managing to be one of the best counterterrorism thrillers since 24. But while Jack Bauer was all tension and no laughs, Obliterated (from the guys behind Harold and Kumar, Hot Tub Time Machine and, more recently, Cobra Kai) finds comedy gold in its heroes’ last-ditch effort to save the world.
