Each week, new highlights join the ranks of this list and this week, we’ve got a doozy.
This week’s additions are highlighted by the Best Picture favorite, Oppenheimer, on Peacock; a major snub, The Color Purple, on Max; and several other new movies on different services.
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.
In the dead of winter when things are gloomy and slow, you can always get a vicarious thrill from the best action movies on Netflix right now. While Netflix has a great collection of action movies, scrolling through it to find something to watch is basically the opposite of an adrenaline rush. That’s why we curate the collection for you with this monthly roundup!
This February, Netflix adds recent blockbusters from Steven Spielberg and Guillermo del Toro, an action-horror franchise starter, and one of the cooler World War II movies of recent years.
Max has established itself as one of the essential mainstream streaming services thanks to its impressive catalog of movies. Just as importantly, if not more so, though, is that the platform’s library offers an excellent level of variety across the medium’s history.
That breadth of diversity also means audiences are treated to movies spanning every genre and decade, ensuring there will be hundreds of hours worth of content to satisfy any moviegoer’s tastes. Even so, it can sometimes feel intimidating to know where to start given the amount of content on hand. Thankfully, we’ve curated a guide to the best movies to stream on Max that is updated every month with the latest additions to the streamer’s library.
When it comes to some of the best shows on television, Max, formerly HBO Max, is often at the top of that list. The streaming service not only offers its own slate of originals, but also library content from HBO. This dates all the way back to shows like Sex and the City and The Sopranos, the latter of which is celebrating 25 years since it went on the air this year. The momentum continues with shows that will likely be just as fondly remembered a quarter century from now, like The Last of Us, The White Lotus, and Succession.
If you’re looking for something to watch, you’ll find a show that fits on Max. There’s something in every genre, for every mood, of every length and type. The best shows on Max right now are an eclectic mix, so browse this list to find the ones to watch. From new seasons of popular shows to new series, these selections will easily fill your TV schedule.
