Prime Video adds 23 very big movies to its library

The new additions include a number of movies exclusive to Prime Video subscribers

127 HOURS

Danny Boyle directs this tense, true-life survival drama about a mountain climber (played by James Franco) who gets his arm stuck under a rock in the middle of nowhere.

ALI

The movie that probably should have won Will Smith his first Best Actor Oscar, and that whole celebration might have gone down without a slap.

BAD LIEUTENANT: PORT OF CALL - NEW ORLEANS

A brilliantly twisted crime thriller with Nicolas Cage as a corrupt cop who is about as corrupt as cops can get.

THE BANK JOB

Jason Statham headlines this really good heist thriller, based on the true story of a series of Baker Street robberies.

THE BUSINESS

A cockney crime thriller headed by Danny Dyer, back when movie makers thought he might be the next Michael Caine. (Spoilers: He wasn't.)

THE DICTATOR

After the hits of Borat and Bruno, the new Sacha Baron Cohen comedy centred around a Saddam-esque ruler. It was crap.

DUNE

Not the recent epic, but the 1984 version directed by David Lynch. It was hated at the time, but has been re-evaluated in the decades since.

ENEMY AT THE GATES

Jude Law, Joseph Fiennes and Ed Harris star in this tense, WWII-set sniper thriller.

FLIGHT

Denzel Washington is the captain of a doomed flight, but who manages to save most of his passengers after a daring manoeuvre. However, his competency is called into question when his alcohol dependency is revealed.

GANGSTER SQUAD

Ryan Gosling, Josh Brolin, Sean Penn, Emma Stone and loads more star in this glitzy but kinda empty 1940s set Hollywood action thriller.

HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON

A really brilliant animated family feature about a young boy raised to be a dragon hunter... only to end up befriending one.

THE HUNGER GAMES

All four entries of this franchise have been added to Prime Video this week. In time, we imagine they will be looked back on with even more esteem than Harry Potter.

IMAGINE THAT

One of the many, many Eddie Murphy mid-00 comedies that featured a total lack of imagination. Which is particularly ironic in this case.

LA LA LAND

Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone again, this time in the much-loved musical romantic drama that suffered a big backlash when it was going up against Moonlight for all of the big awards.

A LONG WAY DOWN

Pierce Brosnan, Toni Collette, Aaron Paul and Imogen Poots star in this dark comedy about a group of strangers who happen to pick the same location at the same time to end their lives.

THE MECHANIC: RESURRECTION

Another Jason Statham movie, this time a pretty fun action thriller about an assassin hired to do a number of jobs, but to make them all look like accidents.

PATRIOT'S DAY

Mark Wahlberg headlines an all-star cast, retelling the day of the Boston Marathon bombing and the immediate hunt to find those responsible for the act.

PRISONER'S DAUGHTER

A Prime Video exclusive, and the first post-Succession release for Brian Cox. Here he plays a man in prison who tries to reconnect with his daughter (Kate Beckinsale) after he is diagnosed with terminal cancer.

ROBOTS

Another Prime Video exclusive, this time telling the story of a pair of perfect robot replicas (played by Shailene Woodley and Jack Whitehall), who fall in love with each other, much to the dismay of their actual human counterparts.

SURVIVOR

The director of V For Vendetta, with Pierce Brosnan returning to the spy thriller genre, starring alongside Milla Jovovich and Angela Bassett. Unfortunately, it only score 8% with critics on Rotten Tomatoes.

Harry Styles ‘attacked’ mid-concert in disturbing new trend

Tom Hanks was asked if he remembered words to rap from 1988 movie Big and he didn’t disappoint

Hairy Biker Dave Myers in ‘tears’ getting back on bike for first time amid cancer battle
