‘The Fall Guy’ (2024)

Watch On
Loosely inspired by the ‘80s TV show of the same name, “The Fall Guy” is a hilarious action-comedy from former stuntman-turned-director David Leitch, the mind behind “Bullet Train” and “Deadpool 2.” Throw in a well-matched pair of leads (Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt in the Barbenheimer reunion we didn’t know we needed), a delightful and engaging premise, and some truly impressive action sequences, and you’ve got all the makings of a high-energy crowdpleaser.

Gosling stars as Colt Seavers, a stuntman still recovering from a workplace accident that nearly ended his career and ruined his budding romance with aspiring director Jody Moreno (Blunt). Months later, Jody finally gets her big break, but everything goes sideways when the movie’s egotistical star, Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), goes missing. Colt is pulled back into the chaos to find the missing actor, unravel a conspiracy, and win back the love of his life — and look sublime doing it.
Watch “The Fall Guy” on Prime Video until October 29
‘Touch’ (2024)
TOUCH – Official Trailer [HD] – Only In Theaters July 12 – YouTube
Watch On
“Touch” slipped under my radar last year, but I’ve been told I need to watch it, and now that I know it’s leaving Prime Video, that’s exactly the push I needed to finally check it out. Directed by Baltasar Kormákur and adapted by Kormákur and Ólafur Jóhann Ólafsson from Ólafsson’s novel, “Touch” is an unapologetically straightforward love story about the one who got away.
Against the backdrop of uncertainty in the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re introduced to Kristófer (Egill Ólafsson), an aging Icelandic widower still grieving the loss of his wife years earlier. When he begins to notice troubling lapses in memory, his doctor breaks the news that he’s in the early stages of Alzheimer’s and needs to put his life in order while he still can.
This diagnosis sparks something in Kristófer, and he sets out to find his first love, a clandestine affair he had over half a century ago, in what becomes a race against time as he travels from Iceland to England and Japan just as pandemic restrictions shut the world down.
Watch “Touch” on Prime Video until October 29
‘Best of Enemies’ (2015)
Best Of Enemies – Official Trailer – YouTube
Watch On
Back in 1968, ABC had the bold idea to book two ideological opposites, staunch conservative William F. Buckley Jr. and liberal pundit Gore Vidal, for a series of nightly debates during the Republican and Democratic conventions. From documentary filmmakers Morgan Neville and Robert Gordon, “The Best of Enemies” dives into these sharp-tongued, high-stakes debates that made TV history.
You may like
This documentary captures a version of America that feels like a million years ago, one where political debate hadn’t yet devolved into full-blown spectacle, though this very showdown arguably lit the fuse. At first, it’s hard to see what the fuss was about, until things start to get heated, their brittle egos under threat. Vidal calls Buckley a “crypto-Nazi,” prompting Buckley to snap back and threaten to punch him in the face, and suddenly it’s easy to understand how today’s contentious media landscape came to be.
Watch “Best of Enemies” on Prime Video until October 27
‘The Intern’ (2015)
The Intern – Official Trailer [HD] – YouTube
Watch On
“The Intern” has been having a moment ever since it became a surprise Netflix No. 1 movie over the summer, and now it’s leaving Prime Video as well. If you’re in the mood for a comfort movie, you can’t go wrong with Nancy Meyers, the director behind the iconic 1998 “The Parent Trap.” Her movies have a certain brand of Hollywood smoothness that makes it easy to get lost in their misadventures for a few hours.
The last feature she directed, “The Intern,” follows Ben Whittaker (Robert De Niro), a 70-year-old widower who decides retirement life isn’t for him and rejoins the workforce as an intern at a fast-growing online fashion company. Though the company’s young founder and CEO, Jules Ostin (Anne Hathaway), initially side-eyes him, Ben quickly earns the trust of his younger colleagues with his patience and nuggets of wisdom. Over time, Jules begins to appreciate Ben’s old-school perspective, especially as she juggles the demands of her expanding family and business.
Watch “The Intern” on Prime Video until October 31
‘Rain Man’ (1988)
Rain Man Official Trailer #1 – Tom Cruise, Dustin Hoffman Movie (1988) HD – YouTube
Watch On
Less than two months after landing on the platform, one of the best Tom Cruise movies of all time is sadly leaving Prime Video. In this Oscar-winning classic, Tom Cruise stars as Charlie Babbitt, a fast-talking car dealer who discovers his estranged brother Raymond (Dustin Hoffman) has inherited their late father’s multi-million-dollar estate. Hoping to get a larger cut of the inheritance, Charlie checks Raymond out of the mental institution that cares for him to go on a cross-country road trip, which takes them on unexpected turns that reshape both of their lives.
Hoffman and Cruise make an unlikely but exceptional pair in this iconic ’80s comedy drama. “Rain Man” was one of the year’s most successful films, going on to win four of its eight Academy Award nominations, including Hoffman’s Best Actor win for his deeply nuanced performance, and “Rain Man” Oscars for Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Picture. Cruise’s performance is worth its flowers too, and it’s rewarding to see his character’s flashy demeanour fade the further he gets pulled into Raymond’s orbit.
Watch “Rain Man” on Prime Video until October 31
