Crackle レビュー

Original films include “Office Uprising,” “The Throwaways,” “In the Cloud,” “Backwash,” and “Cagefighter.”

Original series include “Going From Broke,” “Rob Riggle’s Ski Master Academy,” “StartUp,” “Snatch,” and “Insomnia.”

Crackle has a treasure trove of mostly forgotten shows from the past few decades. You’ll find series like “Action,” “The Critic,” “My Two Dads,” “NewsRadio,” “Parker Lewis Can’t Lose,” “Mr. Sunshine,” “Rake,” “The Jeff Foxworthy Show,” and a special gem — “The Dana Carvey Show,” where you’ll see a young Steve Carrell and Stephen Colbert before they became famous.

You’ll also see classic series like “Barney Miller,” “Car 54, Where Are you?” “Charlie’s Angels,” “The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis,” “The Partridge Family,” “The Saint,” and “Starsky & Hutch.”

There aren’t many quality films on the service, but there are a few you may have heard of, like “The Ghost and the Darkness,” “The Terminal,” “Aeon Flux,” “Big Top Pee-Wee,” “Monster,” “Bridget Jones’s Baby,” “The Proposition,” “Eddie Murphy Raw,”

It does have some excellent documentaries, like “Man on Wire,” “The Wolfpack,” “Super Size Me,” the Roger Ebert-focused “Life Itself,” and the moving story of the Sesame Street icon Carol Spinney, “I am Big Bird.”

Mostly, the movie library is lacking. You’ll get weird flicks like “Ouija Shark,” “The VelociPastor,” and “Jack Frost 2: Revenge of the Mutant Killer.”

There is a small selection of kids content, including a pair of “Spy Kids” films, “Blinky Bill: The Movie,” “The Hero of Color City,” “Paulie,” and “Kikoriki: Team Invincible.”
