The Girlfriend

AKA Charlie Sheen

The Netflix two-part documentary chronicles the 60-year-old star’s up-and-down career, from “Wall Street” to “winning.” Andrew Renzi (“Pepsi, Where’s My Jet?”) directs.

Warfare

Clouds of IED smoke and cries of agony fill Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza’s harrowing film, with little but the faces of its Navy SEALs to ground the nearly real-time, based-on-a-true-story dramatization.

Now on HBO Max

The Wedding Banquet

Andrew Ahn joyfully remakes and updates Ang Lee’s 1993 queer landmark film. Ahn’s movie, starring Kelly Marie Tran, Lily Gladstone, Bowen Yang and Han Gi-chan, rebuilds Lee’s queer comedy of errors for a new generation.
