Alarum Action Movie Heads to Starz as Tulsa King Fans Seek New Content

A critically panned action thriller from 2025 is finding a second life on streaming. Alarum, starring Sylvester Stallone and Scott Eastwood, is available for streaming on Starz.

The film’s arrival on the platform comes at a strategic time for fans of its lead actors. Despite the star power of its leads, Alarum faced a difficult theatrical and critical path upon its initial release on January 17, 2025.

Directed by Michael Polish, the thriller follows two retired spies who find themselves targeted after their quiet life is compromised. The film holds a rare 0% critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 22 negative reviews with no positive outliers reported by major aggregators. This marks the third time a Stallone-led project has faced a complete critical shutout, following similar receptions for Armor and The Expendables 4, though the latter eventually settled slightly higher at 14%.

Viewers are turning to digital platforms for genre content during production gaps.

While critics were largely dismissive of the film’s execution, its performance on digital platforms has been notably more resilient. Its current popularity on Starz suggests that viewers are prioritizing familiar faces and genre consistency over critical scores.

Streaming Platform Updates

Paramount+ has seen movement in its trending charts due to a marketing stunt from another flagship property. The long-running animated series South Park has temporarily rebranded its 29th season as South America. Despite the satirical name change, the series currently holds the #1 spot on the platform, illustrating the type of high-profile competition films face for audience attention.

For those following the careers of the Alarum cast, the film serves as a curiosity piece—a rare instance where a critical failure finds a significant secondary audience through streaming availability. Alarum remains a singular data point in their recent filmographies.
