The Best Movies to Stream Right Now

Not everyone loved Disney and Jon Feavreau’s big-budget photorealistic remake of The Lion King. It makes inexplicable choices such as stretching the movie 30 minutes longer than its original version and deploying “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” during the daylight hours, but honestly look me in the eye and tell me you’re not gonna watch this to listen to Donald Glover and Beyoncé put their own spin on it, anyway.

Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi

No better cleanse for the empty The Rise of Skywalker than Rian Johnson‘s 2017 middle chapter in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, which opened up new doors and themes for a 40-year-old franchise few people thought possible.

Midsommar

At last, Ari Aster’s loud, terrible (in a good way) masterpiece Midsommar is available to watch on a streaming site. Don’t sleep on it (not that you’ll be able to sleep after it, either).

In the opening five minutes of this movie, John Wick kills someone with a book, a throwing axe, and by aiming a horse’s backside at his target and then slapping the horse, causing it to kick that person into a wooden beam. It may drag in the middle just a tad, but this is another deeply satisfying entry into the unlikely saga of John Wick, which adds brilliant turns from Asia Kate Dillon and Iron Chef himself Mark Dacascos, both of whom keep things feeling fresh.

Happy Death Day

One of the great horror-comedies of our time, Happy Death Day made a deserving star of Jessica Rothe and again proved Blumhouse is a genre studio to watch as closely as some people do A24.
