9 Best Movies on Amazon Prime Right Now

Movies

Amazon Prime is one of the most popular streaming services. Since Amazon has so many users with Prime subscriptions, even just for shopping purposes, this platform is one of the preferred ones for them. But another reason is that there is so much content from all genres and everyone will find something they will like. It is hard to list some of the best movies you can see right now on Amazon Prime, but we will give it a try.

Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump is one of the favorite movies of a whole generation. Quentin Tarantino managed to make us a part of the main character’s life that struggled with so many obstacles but overcame them. The phrase “Run, Forrest, run” and “My mom always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.” will remain in history, and Tom Hanks’s performance is phenomenal.

If you never watched this movie or some of the next we will list, you definitely should add them to your “to-watch” list. However, some of them are available only in certain countries. To be able to access all the content, you should use a VPN. If you are using FireStick, this is pretty easy. Download ExpressVPN on Amazon FireStick and access the content on Amazon Prime for every country you want. You will be able to access so many apps or services that are also geo-limited. Amazon FireStick is a handy little device that will make entertainment much easier.

Sleepless in Seattle

Another classic with Tom Hanks and this time with Meg Ryan. The romantic comedy in Seattle will make you want to move to that city and start listening to more talk radio programs. Annie Reed, played by Meg Ryan, falls in love with Sam Baldwin — Tom Hanks, even before she meets him in real life. And since part of the action is happening over Valentine’s Day, this might be the perfect movie for the upcoming holiday.

Borat

Borat is one of the fantastic movies of Sacha Baron Cohen you can find on Amazon Prime. Those faux documentaries follow the journey of the weird Eurasian who travels the world and goes to America. Borat doesn’t fit at all, and that puts him in awkward situations that are in the same way funny but will teach us so much.

The Terminator

“I’ll be back,” as the Terminator said, and he is back over and over again on our screens. This is a movie that back in 1984 was breathtaking and made so many people fas of action movies. It also gave us the untypical villain that Schwarzenegger played so well. Yes, it is not full of visual effects, and it might seem ancient when we are watching it now compared to more recent Terminator parts, but it is still one that we love.

The Grand Budapest Hotel

Another Oscar-winning movie on Amazon Prime. Wes Anderson is famous for his beautiful films, and “The Grand Budapest Hotel” is no exception. Some people even say that it is one of his best movies. It will take you to 3 different time periods to show you the story of the Grand Budapest Hotel and its concierge Gustave.

The Report

This is a true-story drama from 2019 that tells the story of the investigation of some of the events after the 9/11 attacks. In the role of Daniel Jones, Adam Driver is the one assigned by the CIA to dig deeper around the use of torture after the terrorist attack. It will keep you on your toes, and you will love the actors’ play and the scenario.

Mission: Impossible

“Mission: Impossible” and the sequels are great action movies in which Tom Cruise will take you to unique and even impossible adventures. You will be able to see him hanging off one of the tallest buildings or on millimeters from a floor that will trigger alarms that will lead to the failure of his mission. His character Ethan Hunt will do the impossible to complete his missions.

The Prestige

Hugh Jackman has a huge fan base for a reason, and when you combine this with Christian Bale’s one, you definitely get a fantastic movie. The fantasy drama will show you the story of two magicians who challenge each other and want to be the best. They both want to perform the best illusion that no one will ever understand how it is made, but this will lead to dark moments and many twists you would never expect.

Being the Ricardos

And one movie from 2021 that you should check out. It is again based on a true story about Lucille Ball and her husband, Desi Arnaz. Ball, played by Nicole Kidman, is still known as one of the best comedians and the TV series she had with her husband from 1951 to 1957. “Being the Ricardos” will take us behind the scenes of “I Love Lucy” but also the personal lives of both heroes.

Wrapping Up

Amazon Prime is full of great content and much more to come. We expect the TV series based on “The Lord of the rings” to air this year. You will never have enough time to watch everything, but you should start with the movies we listed. Check all the other films and TV series you can find and have some amazing movie nights with popcorn in front of the TV.
