3 Best Movies To Watch On Prime Video This Weekend (#1 Is A Guy Ritchie & Jason Statham Action Smash Hit)

by

Prime Video is bringing three exciting movies that are full of action, suspense, and thought-provoking moments. I recently highlighted Crime 101, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, and Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant as great choices, and all three fall into the action genre.

With a star-studded cast including Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, and Halle Berry, Crime 101 remains the most popular movie on Prime Video, both in the US and around the world. If you haven’t seen it yet, this thrilling crime movie is a great choice for a weekend watch.

As we move deeper into April, I’ve picked out three new movie recommendations for Prime Video. They’re a bit different from each other – they don’t all fit into the same genre – but they all share one thing: they’re designed to be thrilling and keep you hooked.

Prime Video has a variety of great movies to watch this weekend. You’ll find a new action thriller starring Jason Statham, a critically acclaimed horror film that’s been getting a lot of buzz, and a suspenseful psychological thriller featuring a talented cast. Here are some of the top picks for your weekend viewing.

3. Weapons (2025)

Let’s start with Weapons. After becoming a huge hit over the last year – earning $269 million globally – many Prime Video subscribers have likely heard about it. Currently, Weapons is the 6th most-watched movie on Prime Video in the U.S., showing how many people across the country are enjoying the story.

The film Weapons expertly creates a sense of dread using unsettling visuals, strange behavior from both children and adults, and a genuinely creepy premise, all enhanced by its dark and moody filming style. When all the students in one class vanish overnight without a trace, their teacher obsessively searches for answers, and what she discovers is truly frightening.

2. The Menu (2022)

If you enjoyed the unsettling psychological horror of Weapons, you might also like The Menu. This thrilling film features a fantastic cast, including Nicholas Hoult (known for playing Lex Luthor in Superman), Anya Taylor-Joy (starring in the upcoming Dune: Part Three), Ralph Fiennes (who played Voldemort in Harry Potter), and others. The actors brilliantly portray a truly original and captivating story.

The film The Menu follows Tyler Ledford (Nicholas Hoult) and Margot Mills (Anya Taylor-Joy) as they travel to a secluded island to dine at an exclusive restaurant helmed by the celebrated Chef Julian Slowik (Ralph Fiennes). The experience quickly becomes disturbing, escalating into a night of death, shocking revelations, and intense fear. The film has received strong critical acclaim, earning an 88% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

1. Wrath of Man (2021)

Rounding out the selection is Wrath of Man, which became available on Prime Video on April 1st. Jason Statham has become a major action star over the years, and he consistently delivers crowd-pleasing performances.

With a remarkable 90% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, Wrath of Man is a thrilling action movie now available on Prime Video. Jason Statham plays H, a cash truck driver and security guard with a hidden agenda, revealed after he thwarts a robbery. Directed by Guy Ritchie, it’s a fast-paced and exciting film. Prime Video subscribers have three great new options to choose from this weekend, and this one is sure to captivate.
