With Netflix, Prime Video, Max, and others offering unmissable new movies, it's going to be a week full of new films from the best streaming services. In addition, the biggest theatrical hits of the year are coming to premium streaming platforms.

It's hard to pick a headliner this week, but the home country debut of “Twisters” is sure to please disaster movie enthusiasts: a standalone sequel to the original 90s film, “Twisters” continues Glen Powell's summer of charismatic stars, and is the year s most visually striking tornado confrontation you'll see in the blockbuster. Daisy Edgar-Jones also stars.

Other films to watch this week include the criminally overlooked thriller “Mothers' Instinct,” a new Prime Video comedy from Paul Feig (“Bridesmaids”), and Netflix's rare 100% on Rotten Tomatoes documentary Daughters.

Now let's dive into the full list. Without further ado, here are the top new movies you need to stream this week. [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...] [...]

Netflix has already delivered one must-see documentary this month that received a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Daughters, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival this past January to great success, is shaping up to be one of the best documentaries of the year. Like many good documentaries, “Daughters” balances a human story with a critique of the society around us.

Directed by Natalie Lau and Angela Patton, “Daughters” focuses on the work of the nonprofit organization Girls for Change, headed by Patton, specifically the “Date with Dad” program, which hosts father-daughter dances with a twist. The fathers who participate in this program are incarcerated. For one day, they trade in their state-issued clothing for formal wear and get significant bonding time with their daughters. It is an emotional and memorable day for all involved. But beyond the feel-good nature of the program, the documentary looks at how the American prison system often fails inmates and their families.

This prequel tells her previously untold story of her rise from a child taken from her home against her will to an Imperator in Immortan Joe's army, fighting off the insane General Dementas (Chris Hemsworth) in the process.

There's no denying that Furiosa: The Mad Max Saga was made for the big screen, but its stunning set pieces shine even when seen at home, and Chris Hemsworth's deliciously devilish performance loses none of its impact on a small display. Certainly, there are valid questions about the narrative necessity of this prequel (the ending lacks punch), but Furiosa is a fascinating protagonist and it is a pleasure to have her back in Miller's orange-tinted wasteland.

Watch it on Max starting August 16

The action-comedy about a civilian being thrust into the world of espionage is a strong favorite on the streaming service. Critics won't be too keen on this Netflix original (scores are sure to drop), but audience reception is paramount, and as the playful trailer suggests, Netflix may have an audience-pleaser on its hands.
