When movies go direct-to-streaming, there’s generally a reason why they skipped theaters. But this month, Amazon Prime Video‘s Deep Cover has proven to be a welcome exception to that. The film stars Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed as a trio of improv performers who are convinced to use their skills to infiltrate […]

Amazon Prime Video isn’t debuting any new shows until later this month, but that doesn’t mean June is lacking in excitement. Prime Video has a very deep library of TV shows, including some that didn’t get the attention they deserved the first time. The 2018 spy thriller Condor is one of those overlooked series, and […]

Netflix is the only streamer that can reliably drop a new movie almost every week of the year. And Netflix still draws top talent to its films as well. This summer, Netflix is once again flexing its cinematic muscles with a lineup of original movies that are box-office worthy. But they’re skipping theaters entirely. To […]

Sometimes, timing is everything for the major streamers like Max. HBO and Max couldn’t have predicted that a Spaceballs 2 announcement would arrive this month, but it has, and it’s already propelled the original Spaceballs into the top 10 movies on the streamer just a few weeks after its arrival. That’s not the only comedy […]

Although Netflix has built its business model around binge-watching viewers, some subscribers prefer stories with more finite ends. Netflix has a lot more miniseries than you may have guessed. But sometimes, even some of the best miniseries get lost in the shuffle of Netflix’s original programming. That’s why the Watch With Us team has assembled […]

The most popular movies on Netflix is always a snapshot of where the streamer is at a particular moment. Sometimes, not even Netflix can predict when a film is going to breakout with its subscribers. That’s why some Netflix originals are outperformed by lesser-known flicks that simply clicked with the audience. Heading into this weekend, […]

Hulu may not be known as the biggest streamer, but it is definitely one of the best. There’s an incredible lineup of shows that can keep Hulu subscribers busy well into the fall. And now that summer is heating up, there’s no better time to catch some of the streamer’s best shows. The Watch With […]

Discerning streaming viewers have a lot of new and returning Netflix shows to choose from in June. And it’s good to have so many options when other streamers are tightening up budgets and cutting way back on the number of original shows on their platforms. To help you sort through the wide selection, the Watch […]

If you’re a Hulu subscriber, then you should be very happy with the streamer’s lineup in June. This month, Hulu has a stacked library of movies, original films and series, as well as The Bear season 4 at the end of June. For this weekend, the Watch With Us team has selected three of the […]

Peacock subscribers are in for a treat this weekend, because one of our favorite films of 2025 is now streaming on the platform. The Ballad of Wallis Island only had a limited release in theaters earlier this year, but it’s the kind of movie that’s a welcome respite from blockbuster films and a reminder that […]

There’s something about action that pairs really well with the summer. And this weekend, Netflix is all about the action. But people can’t live on action alone, and there always seems to be an enticing true crime documentary to keep us busy on these long weekends. To get you ready for the next three days, […]

Sometimes, picking the one comedy show to watch in a month is an easy choice. In April, it was Hacks, and in May, it was Poker Face. For June, our pick is The Bear, the FX original series that’s returning for its fourth season on Hulu later this month. It’s simply head and shoulders above […]

We can always count on Netflix to bring out fresh action movies throughout the month, and June is no exception. On June 12, Netflix is adding Plane, a 2023 action thriller with perhaps the plainest (no pun intended) movie title ever. Say what you will about Snakes on a Plane or The Taking of Pelham […]

Emotions tend to run hot in fandom when it comes to everyone’s favorite TV shows. Not everyone likes the same thing, and sometimes there’s a big gulf between what critics think about a show and how the audience receives it. Case in point: FUBAR, the Netflix original series starring Arnold Schwarzenegger in his first-ever starring […]

Action movie fans never seem to be without something fun to watch on the various streamers. Sometimes, Netflix even surprises action lovers with an unexpected low-budget flick that becomes the most popular movie on the streamer. But those are the action films we can’t predict because we haven’t seen them. In order to pick out […]

Netflix isn’t short of great TV shows to watch in June, but the one new miniseries that stands out from the pack is The Survivors. This Australian drama has already become one of the most popular shows on Netflix, and it could even rise to the No. 1 spot. The show is based on Jane Harper‘s 2020 novel of […]

If there’s ever a time to stay home with Netflix instead of braving the heat in theaters, it’s this summer. Thanks to some carefully curated films, Netflix has a handful of blockbuster movies from other studios that still hold up favorably compared to what’s playing this summer. To kick off a new seasonal tradition, the […]

HBO and Max added a lot of great titles in June, but it may be surprising to hear that very few of them scored over 90 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Even some of the films we hold up as classics, like Casino with Robert De Niro and Fight Club with Brad Pitt, only had 78 […]

Two years ago, the world was gripped by the story of the Titan submersible disaster, in which an unregulated undersea vessel was crushed during an attempt to visit the wreckage of the Titanic. Everyone on board the vessel was lost, including Shahzada Dawood and his son, Suleman Dawood, Hamish Harding, Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet and […]

Sci-fi fans have a good reason to be happy this June, because it’s not every month that we get a streaming original film that’s worthy of movie theaters. Predator: Killer of Killers may be a direct-to-Hulu animated anthology, but it’s easily one of the best sci-fi movies of 2025. Admittedly, there hasn’t been a lot […]

Amazon Prime Video may have a habit of releasing its lineup for the month late, but the streamer is prepared to dominate summer 2025. Prime Video is betting on action comedies this summer, including a trio of films with A-list casts that rival anything you could watch in theaters. For romance lovers, the third and […]
