From the director of last year's buddy-cop-comedy 'Stuber,' comes a new vision in buddy-cop-comedy in the new Netflix film, 'Coffee & Kareem,' a surprisingly vulgar coming-of-age story about a milquetoast Detroit cop and his feeble attempts to connect with his new girlfriend's 12-year-old son while fleeing from an underground drug kingpin that's hellbent on revenge. Also, IndieGoGo presents 'Tombstone Rashomon,' a time-traveling mockumentary about the shootout at the O.K. Corral told by the people who lived it.

Also, a new chat-based party app called 'Netflix Party' made headlines last week due to it's social nature amid fairly anti-social global climates, so we used it to watch Nicholas Winding-Refn's neon-laced 2011 film 'Drive.'

What's gonna happen to theaters, when are new movies going to start coming out again, and why's Joe Pesci so angry?

Disney-Pixar ventures into the mystical modern in "Onward," a new animated film starring Tom Holland and Chris Pratt as two brothers that only have 24 hours to right a spell gone wrong and resurrect their father before he vanishes forever.
