Fatherhood (new on Netflix)

After a slow couple of weeks, Netflix is kicking it up a notch with streaming releases this week. At the head of the pack is Fatherhood, the newest Kevin Hart vehicle from director Paul Weitz (American Pie, About a Boy, Admission). In the Montreal-shot film, Hart plays a new father who must cope with raising his daughter alone after the death of his wife. It’s available today alongside the Japanese yakuza drama A Family, the first season of Chinese comedy-drama The Rational Life and something called The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals — which at least has the merit of being self-explanatory.

Comedian Iliza Shlesinger co-wrote and stars in the rom-com Good on Paper, in which she meets a man (Ryan Hansen) who seems too good to be true. It’s out June 23 alongside season two of the extremely stupid reality show Too Much to Handle, in which extremely beautiful people are shipped off to an island where they are forbidden from having sex with each other for a month to win $100,000. Godzilla fans who aren’t sated by the recent blockbuster can fall back on the anime series Godzilla Singular Point, out June 24 alongside the documentary Sisters on Track, about the track careers of three preteen African-American girls. 

Movie-wise, you can now catch Booksmart (June 19), Long Shot (June 21), Blinded by the Light and The Kitchen (both June 22).
