New releases on streaming services this week range from blockbuster animated features starring transforming robots to intimate thrillers about a race against time to escape a serial killer before his body shuts down.

While the home debut of “Transformers One” is arguably the biggest new release, Netflix, Prime Video, and Max also offer new movies that subscribers can enjoy without paying additional rental fees, including Netflix's “Don't Move” and the controversial M Night Shyamalan's new thriller “Trap” Max premiere are among the highlights.

If you're in the mood for something new to watch this week, here are the best new releases coming to streaming services. Plus, be sure to check out our guide to the latest TV shows available for streaming this week.

“Transformers One” may just be the best prequel to bring the CGI-laden blockbuster series to the world of animation. Set on the Transformers' home planet of Cybertron, the film tells the untold story of Optimus Prime (voiced by Chris Hemsworth) and Megatron (Brian Tyree Henry). We know them as sworn enemies, but before that they were actually best friends, working together and sharing a brotherly bond. Transformers One tells the story of their mission to find the powerful McGuffin known as the “Matrix of Leadership” and how this quest will ultimately drive a wedge between the two robot buddies.

Unfortunately, “Transformers One” failed to find an audience large enough to recoup its budget at the worldwide box office. This is a real shame, as it is a vibrant and entertaining animated film that will appeal to Transformers fans of all ages. Hopefully, its appearance on Premium Video on Demand will help it reach a new audience that skipped the cinema screenings. Because “Transformers One” has true heart.

Kate Beckinsale stars in this new Prime Video action thriller from filmmaker Pierre Morel, who directed 2008's “Taken.” While its quality may be a bit suspect (I expect a pleasant surprise from this film), there's no denying that it has enough checkers to likely make a serious impression on the streaming service's top 10 most-watched list.

In “Canary Black,” Beckinsale plays Avery Graves, a top CIA operative forced to betray her country after her husband is kidnapped by a terrorist group. With no team to rely on, she is forced to rely on her criminal connections to find the top-secret information the kidnappers demand. But as she delves deeper into the underworld, she doesn't know who she can trust, and betrayal is everywhere.

Netflix's “Don't Move” is shaping up to be one of the most intense thrillers of the year. Unfolding in real time, the film follows a grieving woman named Iris (Kelsey Asbill) who visits a remote forest in search of solace. Instead, she comes face to face with a sadistic killer who injects her with a paralyzing drug. As this drug begins to take over her body, she must find a way to escape this nightmare before her nervous system shuts down and she freezes.

Utilizing the universal fear of being trapped in a terrifying situation and unable to escape, “Don't Move” is sure to provide viewers with a nerve-wracking experience. Lead actor Kelsey Asbill describes the film as “a propulsive, stripped-down thriller that feels very personal at times,” and from the looks of the teaser trailer, it looks like another Netflix No. 1 hit is on the way.

M. Night Shyamalan's latest film is great in concept but a bit flawed in execution. Still, the arrival of Max will please those looking for a thriller with a twist, enough to hold your attention from start to finish. When word comes to the authorities that a notorious serial killer known as the Butcher is coming to the venue, and that this may be their only chance to catch them, a police sting operation ensues.

But this is not a mystery thriller in which the identity of the killer is kept secret until the last moment. The character in our point of view is the killer, Cooper Abbott (Josh Hartnett). Attending a concert with his young daughter, Cooper must figure out how to evade the police while also keeping his family from discovering his sinister double life. The first half of the film is quite engaging, but the second half takes a turn for the ridiculous. However, if you don't mind the plot holes and illogical storyline, “Trap” is mindlessly enjoyable and offers a novel core concept.

On paper, “Dadio” had all the makings of a strong contender for a major award. It is an intimate, dialogue-heavy drama with a cast of two, Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn. In addition, it touches on heavy philosophical themes of relationships, power dynamics, and the nature of grief. While it didn't reach Oscar-winning heights, its 77% rating on Rotten Tomatoes suggests that it's still a drama worth watching, and its 88% audience score is even higher. [In the film, Dakota Johnson plays a young woman who has just landed at JFK International Airport. She takes a cab back to her apartment in Manhattan, but the cab ride turns into a surprising journey. She strikes up a conversation with the driver (Sean Penn), and at first they exchange brief small talk, but eventually move on to more personal topics, telling each other candid truths that they had not been able to express before.
