New trailers: Molly’s Game, Thor: Ragnarok, and more
The documentary Icarus recently premiered on Netflix, and if you’re looking for something to watch this weekend, it’s a really good choice.
The film is a strange trip through the world of doping. It starts out simple enough, with a cyclist trying out performance-enhancing injections on himself — almost like a freakier version of Super Size Me. But then the filmmaker kind of miraculously stumbles onto a key figure — and an entertaining one, at that — in the Russian doping scandal, ultimately helping to blow the whole thing wide open.
Even if you’re not a big Olympics or cycling fan, the documentary has so many fascinating twists and turns that basically works as a kind of true crime thriller on its own.
