[***Companion*** ](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/companion%5F2025?ref=pamphleteer.co)**(Max)** Warner Bros’s oversharing marketing campaign ruined the box-office potential of this smart and effective thriller starring Sophie Thatcher (*Yellowjackets*) and Jack Quaid (*The Boys*) upon its release in January. Watch it. The less you know, the better, so we’ll go with what should have been the official synopsis: “New Line Cinema–the studio that brought you *The Notebook*–and the unhinged creators of *Barbarian* cordially invite you to experience a new kind of love story....” 

[***The Unit***](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/the%5Funit?ref=pamphleteer.co)**(Hulu)** David Mamet’s 2006-2008 CBS drama about Special Forces agents whose globetrotting eroded their personal lives was the gold standard Post-9/11 TV drama. It’s a shame the 2007 WGA strike killed it, and not just because Dennis Haysbert, Scott Foley, and Robert Patrick turned in the best work of their careers. 

[**Erin Brokovich** ](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/erin%5Fbrockovich?ref=pamphleteer.co) **(Netflix)** Those precious few who had the pleasure of seeing Steven Soderbergh’s glorious [new spy thriller](https://pamphleteer.co/post/review-black-bag-2025/), *Black Bag* and want more should check out the director’s blockbuster Julia Roberts drama about a paralegal who takes on Big Chemical’s water pollution. It somehow plays better in the RFK-era thanks to its lack of sanctimony and penchant for dark humor. A towering example of contemporary Hollywood at its peak.
