Strays could change that.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

 The Shadow Strays is the newest assassin movie from Timo Tjahjanto, the 
director behind The Night Comes For Us, which was one of 12 epic action 
movies we previously recommended that secured a high Rotten Tomatoes approval 
from critics and fans alike. This is good news if, like me, you've been left 
disappointed by Netflix's recent action offerings like The Union, which has 
been Netflix's #1 movie for the past two weeks . 

Clearly, Netflix movies can be hit and miss, as we all know  indeed, its 
latest comedy offering Incoming was slammed by critics , earning a 27% rating 
on the review aggregator site. So you can probably tell why I'm keen to see 
more hits that we can add to our best Netflix movies , and perhaps The Shadow 
Strays fits the bill. 

You'll have to wait till around Halloween to watch it though. While 
Tjahjanto's new movie will premiere at the Toronto International Film 
Festival (TIFF) in September, it lands on Netflix on October 17. We're sure 
it'll be one of many exciting new additions, but hopefully there are some 
more horrors to look forward to. With October being my favourite time of 
year, I am excited to see what the best streaming service has in store. 

The first teaser trailer for the new Netflix movie is certainly promising. 
It's full of fast action sequences of an assassin fighting a crime syndicate 
with hardly any talking. It's gripping stuff, filled with fist-fights, 
gunfights and flashing lights, which is everything you could want from an 
action movie, really! You can take a look at the teaser in the video above. 
What is The Shadow Strays about? 

 The Shadow Strays follows someone known as 'Codename 13', a young assassin 
who finds herself suspended after a mission gone wrong. During this period of 
inactivity, she bonds with a young boy called Monji, who recently lost his 
mother to a crime syndicate. 

But when Monji mysteriously disappears, Codename 13 decides to go off and 
find him, even if that does mean disobeying orders. So we've got a missing 
boy and a rogue assassin, a recipe for a very good movie. I can't wait to see 
it! 

Additionally, a statement from Netflix teases that: "The film dives deep into 
themes of redemption and loyalty, set against the backdrop of a brutal and 
unforgiving underworld. Audiences can expect Tjahjantos signature style, with 
expertly choreographed action sequences guaranteed to keep them on the edge 
of their seats." You might also like 5 new movies coming to Netflix in
