Six To See February 2-March 1, 2026

Since the Filmfestival of Oostende I had more work to do and more articles to write, because I started as a regional journalist again, this time for the Krant van West-Vlaanderen. I didn’t had a lot of time for Six To See the last few weeks, but I still wrote about the new releases and now I can finally publish it. I’m starting with the best releases of the month of February. The best releases of March are also coming and starting this week I will be back every Monday with the new Six To See of the week.

Six Films To See:

1. Crime 101: a crime thriller film starring Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, and Halle Berry. It is written and directed by Bart Layton, based on the 2020 novella by Don Winslow. The film also features Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Nick Nolte. The story follows a sophisticated jewel thief who commits a series of robberies along California’s Highway 101. His crimes follow a strict personal code he calls “Crime 101”, which has kept him from being caught for years. The thief, eyeing his final score, encounters a disillusioned insurance broker at her own crossroads. As their paths intertwine, a relentless detective trails them hoping to thwart the multi-million dollar heist they are planning. Crime 101 premiered in London on January 28, and was released in theatres on February 13. Since April 1st the film is also available on Prime Video.

Goat was released in theatres on February 13.

4. Wuthering Heights: a romantic period drama film produced, written and directed by Emerald Fennell. Loosely based on the 1847 novel by Emily Brontë, the film was intended by Fennell to “recreate the feeling of a teenage girl reading this book for the first time”.

5. Scream 7: the seventh film in the Scream-franchise and a sequel to Scream VI (2023).

The film follows a new Ghostface killer who targets Sidney Prescott’s daughter. Following the exit of Scream (2022) and Scream VI directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett in August 2023, Christopher Landon was hired to direct the seventh Scream film. However, the film went through a creative retooling after the departure of stars Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega in late 2023, with Landon also leaving the project. In March 2024, Campbell confirmed her return to the franchise after being absent from Scream VI, with Williamson hired to direct Scream 7 after serving as writer and producer of the early films in the series. Scream 7 was released in theatres on February 27. It received negative reviews from critics, but set the record for the highest opening weekend of the franchise.

6. Cold Storage: a horror comedy film directed by Jonny Campbell from a screenplay by David Koepp based on his 2019 novel of the same name.

2. Paradise Season 2: the second season of the post-apocalyptic political thriller series created by Dan Fogelman. It stars Sterling K. Brown, Julianne Nicholson, and James Marsden. Season 1 revealed that the supposedly safe underground city called Paradise hides major secrets about the apocalypse and the world outside. Season 2 expands the scope. Xavier (Brown) leaves the bunker and travels across the devastated world searching for his wife Teri, who may still be alive after “The Day”. Back inside Paradise, political tensions grow and new secrets about the bunker’s origins and its billionaire creator begin to surface. The season alternates between Xavier surviving outside among new groups of survivors and the increasingly unstable society inside Paradise. New cast members in season 2 are Shailene Woodley, Thomas Doherty, Michael McGrady, and Patrick Fischler. Season 2 of Paradise premiered on February 23 on Disney+ with the first three episodes.

The series continues the story of FBI agent Peter Sutherland. After the events of Season 2, Peter is now fully working as a Night Agent, operating in high-risk international missions. Season 3 begins with him investigating a Treasury agent who fled to Istanbul with classified financial intelligence after killing his supervisor. What initially looks like a rogue-agent case soon reveals a global dark-money conspiracy tied to terrorism financing and powerful political figures. The investigation takes Peter across several countries while he tries to uncover who is secretly funding extremist groups, stop assassins hired to silence witnesses, and expose corruption inside the U.S. government itself. Season 3 of The Night Agent was released on February 19 on Netflix. It was already renewed for a fourth season.
