Luckily Netflix keeps chugging out original content so we actually still have new movies to review! This weeks film, The Old Guard, is a graphic novel based action spectacular staring Charlize Theron and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood.
News outlets are stating that this is one of the largest opening weeks of any of their original films; the question is, is it actually worth all the hype or does it fall short? Spoiler alert, the crew is a bit divided as usual!
