In the streaming era, death and taxes aren’t the only constants. Every month like clockwork, Netflix is losing some of its best movies. The key to getting the most out of your Netflix subscription is by keeping an eye on the movies coming to and leaving Netflix in any particular month. Now it’s time for […]

In just one week, Amazon Prime Video will be losing several films while cycling in a fresh lineup of movies. But if there’s one great Amazon Prime Video movie that you have to watch before it leaves, then our pick for June is Gattaca. Writer and director Andrew Niccol envisioned Gattaca as a sci-fi drama […]

Hulu is closing out the last weekend of June with one of its heavy hitters — The Bear. Unsurprisingly, the newly released The Bear season 4 is No. 1 on Hulu’s list of films and television series. That made it the easy choice to lead off this week’s selections for the three popular Hulu movies […]

July’s lineup of shows to watch on Netflix looks really promising. But the same can’t really be said for the final weekend in June. The pickings may be slim, but the Watch With Us team is always up for the challenge of finding three underrated Netflix shows to watch this weekend. As it happens, there […]

There aren’t a lot of new movies on Peacock during the final weekend of June. But that’s to be expected since new titles will arrive on July 1. In the meantime, the Watch With Us team has browsed Peacock’s film lineup to find something suitable to close out the month. One of our picks for underrated […]

This July, Netflix is adding Red Eye, one of the best thrillers I’ve ever seen, and it’s just a month shy of the film’s 20th anniversary. At the time Red Eye was released on August 19, 2005, director Wes Craven was in the twilight of his career and attempting to venture beyond the realms of […]

Have you ever watched a sci-fi movie from the past that was eerily correct about the way our lives have unfolded in the future? It’s actually not that surprising, as scientists have often cited the futuristic technology they saw in science fiction stories for inspiring them to come up with a way of making those […]

This week, HBO and Max are going to lose a handful of films, including some that may not have a streaming home after the end of June. One of those films is RoboCop, the 1987 film that’s widely considered to be among the greatest sci-fi action movies ever made. RoboCop delivers all of the action […]

Amazon Prime Video is the home of hundreds of original shows as well as a large number of series on loan from other studios. But only a small handful of those shows have at least 90 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. But if every series scored that high, then Rotten Tomatoes rankings wouldn’t have much impact. […]

The summer box office is no place for a great thriller, simply because audiences are drawn to big-budget action and animated flicks during the hottest months of the year. But if you want to feel some chills go down your back during these long summer days, the streamers have some recent thrillers that made their […]

Walt Disney Pictures has been attempting to adapt Disney theme park attractions into feature film franchises for over two decades, but most of those efforts haven’t been successful. Aside from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, two separate attempts to adapt The Haunted Mansion failed, and don’t get us started on The Country Bears. Even […]

Until recently, Disney’s content sharing between Hulu and Disney+ went in one direction only as the latter shored up its lineup with the former’s library titles. Now, there’s been a shift and Hulu is suddenly hosting Marvel, Star Wars and Disney shows and movies that it simply couldn’t get before. One of the series on loan is […]

Netflix‘s most popular movies this week include a pair of films that are celebrating their respective anniversaries by finding a bigger audience in the streaming era than they ever had in theaters. It’s a familiar pattern for Netflix, as films that were underappreciated or outright bombs get some cinematic redemption simply from getting viewers to […]

When it comes to the most popular Amazon Prime Video shows and movies, there usually isn’t a lot of turnover every week. If Prime Video has a hit original series or film, it tends to stay on the list for weeks at a time. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t some great programming. The Watch […]

Theaters may be dominated by blockbuster action and superhero flicks, but it’s the drama movies that define the decades and win the vast majority of awards. The downside of dramas is that quality films don’t always find a warm reception at the box office. With rare exceptions, dramas tend to draw fewer fans into theaters. […]

The roundup of the most popular Hulu movies and TV shows isn’t as chaotic as some of its rival streamers like Netflix. There is turnover every week, but the lineup is fairly consistent, and the projects that are in the top 15 movies and TV shows generally deserve to be there. Heading into the weekend, […]

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, Peacock put together a killer lineup of films to convince you to stay home and watch a few movies. As it happens, this weekend is the 50th anniversary of Jaws, the film that paved the way for modern blockbusters as we know […]

Are you ready for the weekend? Netflix is, and the streamer is giving binge-watchers three good reasons to stay home as the weather gets hotter. At this point, it seems that Netflix has mastered the formula of blending original series and shows acquired from other networks to keep subscribers engaged week after week. There are numerous […]

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 […]
