This week, streaming services are adding a variety of new shows and movies, including acclaimed dramas, suspenseful thrillers, and informative documentaries. Both Paramount+ and Disney+ subscribers have plenty to look forward to between February 2nd and 8th, with a mix of beloved classics and fresh international titles. Whether you enjoy historical romances or shows about aliens, there’s something for everyone. Here’s a look at what’s coming up during the first week of February.

‘The Reader’ (2008)

This Monday, February 2nd, Paramount+ will begin streaming a powerful drama set in post-war Germany. The story centers on Michael Berg, a young man who falls in love with an older woman, Hanna Schmitz. Years later, he’s shocked to see her on trial, accused of being a guard at a concentration camp. Kate Winslet won an Oscar for her performance as the complex character Hanna, and the film delves into difficult questions about guilt and how different generations grapple with the legacy of the Holocaust.

’68 Kill’ (2017)

On February 4th, Paramount+ will start streaming ’68 Kill,’ a fast-paced and darkly funny crime story. The film follows Chip, an ordinary guy who gets talked into stealing $68,000 by his controlling girlfriend, Liza. What starts as a simple robbery soon turns into a wild, dangerous ride with a lot of unpredictable characters. ’68 Kill’ mixes the energy of punk rock with classic crime themes for a unique and visually striking film. It’s a frantic look at unhealthy relationships and how far people will go when they’re desperate.

‘Ancient Aliens’ (2010–)

The popular documentary series ‘Ancient Aliens’ arrives on Disney+ on February 4th. Each episode explores ancient locations and objects, presenting the idea that aliens visited Earth long ago and may have influenced human development. Experts analyze historical writings and impressive structures to suggest that alien technology played a role in shaping ancient civilizations. The show has become well-known for prompting discussions about where our ideas and myths really came from, offering a thought-provoking look at unsolved mysteries that fascinate both scholars and those simply curious about the past.

‘Engineering Europe’ (2025)

As a total film buff, I’m really excited about this new docuseries hitting Disney+ this Saturday, February 7th. It’s called ‘Engineering Europe,’ and it’s all about the incredible buildings and structures all over the continent. What really grabs me is that it goes behind the scenes of these huge projects – the bridges, tunnels, everything – showing how they were planned and built. It’s not just about the finished product, but the challenges engineers face trying to blend new technology with preserving history. It’s a fascinating look at the precision and innovation that keeps these iconic European landmarks standing – and connects everything in the 21st century. I’m definitely adding it to my watchlist!
