ON DEMAND HIGHLIGHTS

AMAZON PRIME VIDEO

MOVIE The Waterboy (1998) 12 ◆ ★★★ Silly comedy with Adam Sandler as a simple soul who hands out water to his college football team, then becomes a sporting star. From today.

Seven Pounds

MOVIE (2008) 12 ◆ ★★★ Tear-jerking drama starring Will Smith as guilt-ridden man who devises an unusual way to atone for a devastatin­g fatal car crash he caused. From Tuesday.

MOVIE The Fast And The Furious

(2001) 12 ◆ ★★★★ The original street racing thriller comes to Prime, as do the following five movies in what is now a huge franchise — this is up to and including Fast & Furious 6, which is the one that added Jason Statham to the mix. From Tuesday.

NEW! Reacher (Season 1) ★★★★ Jack Reacher is the strong, silent type and, in this new series based on Lee Child’s first novel, Killing Floor, he’s capable of both Sherlock-level deductions and fighting six men at once. He also doesn’t speak for the first six minutes — because he’s the strong, silent type — and is a lot of fun to watch in this show, which has moments of extreme violence and begins in a small town with rotten apples. From Friday.

NETFLIX

NEW! Raising Dion (Season 2) ★★★

A new season for the endearing US drama about a mum who struggles to raise a boy with superpower­s. From Tuesday.

NEW! The Tinder Swindler ★★★★ This mesmerisin­g documentar­y should be a hit for Netflix. It’s the story of a con man who posed as a diamond billionair­e and swindled the women he wooed. The women tell the story, and the warm way they talk about the romance phase — even now — makes you see why it all happened. From Wednesday.

NEW! Murdervill­e (Season 1)

★★★★ Sharon Stone is one of the stars investigat­ing a murder in this zany US comedy take on BBC3’s Murder In Successvil­le. Each celebrity is paired with Will Arnett’s tough detective, Terry Seattle (above, with Stone), and subjected to the whims of improvisin­g comedians who play the suspects determined to make trouble for the star. From Thursday.
