Being in Prime Video’s top 10 doesn’t automatically make a movie worth watching.

Welcome to Watch This, Not That, a column where we dig into the latest streaming top 10 picks, call out the one lackluster title you should skip, and highlight the better alternative you absolutely should watch instead.
