The Oscars are less than a month away, and several nominees are on this list of the best movies to stream on Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, Max (HBO), and other services. It’s a great resource to catch some of the biggest movies of the past year that you missed, as well as the best new releases on your favorite streaming services. We update the list every week with new highlights.
This week is a quiet one as we get toward the end of February. Max adds Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla Presley biopic Priscilla, while Hulu adds one of the most controversial Oscar snubs, All of Us Strangers.
We also have guides to the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, and the best movies on HBO.
Under Christopher McQuarrie’s stewardship, Mission: Impossible has become one of the best action franchises running today. Unbelievably, Tom Cruise has played IMF agent Ethan Hunt in four different decades at this point and he’s still doing his own stunts, which just keep getting crazier.
In Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Hunt and his IMF team are tasked with tracking down a terrifying new weapon that threatens all of humanity. As they race against time and a mysteriously omnipotent enemy, deadly forces from Ethan’s past nip at his heels, forcing him to make some of the most difficult sacrifices he’s ever had to.
If you're sick of spending family movie night scrolling for something to watch, you'll appreciate this list of the best family movies on Netflix. Before you sit down with the remote, check this list for the most up-to-date list of movies worth your time, so you don't have to scroll past all the less exciting ones.
Each month, we update this list with the best new family-friendly additions to Netflix's library. This February, a recent Steven Spielberg blockbuster (no, it's not Jurassic Park!) and the feature film debut of the world's most beloved shell with shoes on highlight the new additions.
Max, formerly known as HBO Max, is a mixture of all the things you saw on HBO Max with the addition of Discovery content. One of the most popular streaming services, the service has added news content like CNN Max and the Bleacher Report sports add-on along with a bunch of live sporting events to ensure it has more of a hold on the media streaming services world. The growing list of live events might not be your route to watch the Super Bowl for free but it’s great for other sports fans. If you’re keen to check it out for yourself, here’s what you need to know about signing up.
Is there an (HBO) Max free trial?
There’s no conventional HBO Max free trial to speak of. While other streaming services might allow you to simply log on and pick a free trial, HBO Max is a little more complicated than that.
Right now, one method to check out HBO Max for free is to activate a new Roku streaming device. One of the best streaming devices you can buy, new Rokus currently come with a 27-day free trial of the ad-free version of Max but the deal only runs until mid February 2024. If you have an unlimited Cricket wireless plan, you can also enjoy Max for free.
Despite having one of the highest subscriber counts of any streaming service, the best Amazon Prime Video original series don't get the same recognition as those from platforms like Netflix, Max, or Hulu.
Amazon produces significantly less original content than some of its counterparts, but it has quietly raised its quality standard over time. After being the first streaming service to win an Emmy with Transparent, Amazon Prime Video fell off for a while, but has been upping the quality in recent years. When new entries join the library, we're here to deem them worthy of this roundup. This month, there are two new additions.
We’ve also rounded up the best Netflix original series and the best Hulu original series if Prime Video doesn’t have the originals you’re looking for.
