Prime Video top 10 movies — here’s the 3 worth watching this week (May 25-31)

Looking for something to watch on Prime Video this week? Then the top 10 most-watched list makes for a solid starting point. In this always-shifting ranking, you can see the movies that are drawing the most attention from your fellow Prime Video subscribers right now.

However, if I've learnt one lesson from tracking streaming service top 10 lists every single day, it's that a high ranking is no guarantee of quality. It's not uncommon for skippable films to land on the list. That's why I've combed through today's Prime Video top 10 to pick out three movies that I believe deserve a spot on your watchlist this week.

These picks are based on the Prime Video top 10 as of Monday, May 25, 2026. And with that bit of housekeeping out of the way, here's the best of the current Prime Video top 10 movies list.

Best Prime Video top 10 movies to stream right now

‘Jack Ryan: Ghost War’ (2026)

It’s no surprise to see “Jack Ryan: Ghost War” sitting atop the Prime Video most-watched list. This feature-length continuation of the popular Prime original action-thriller sees John Krasinski reprising the titular role, playing one of novelist Tom Clancy’s most iconic characters. The movie hasn’t enjoyed a stellar critical reception, but clearly that isn’t stopping fans from checking out Ryan’s latest global-trotting espionage adventure.

I’ll admit to being a little out of the loop when it comes to Jack Ryan. I've only seen an episode or two of the original show. However, the official plot summary reads, “Jack Ryan reunites with CIA operatives to navigate betrayal from an enemy who knows their moves and faces a past once thought settled.” Which certainly sounds like a Jack Ryan storyline to me. Alongside Krasinski, “Ghost War” stars Sienna Miller, Wendell Pierce and Michael Kelly.

'Regretting You' (2025)

Speaking of movies that weren’t well-received by critics, there’s “Regretting You.” This romantic drama, based on the best-selling Colleen Hoover novel, is a real guilty pleasure of mine. I’m fully aware it’s got some script issues, and it’s almost unbelievably melodramatic, but a likeable cast, including Allison Williams, Mckenna Grace and Dave Franco, was enough to keep me invested. And hey, everybody likes a little melodrama from time to time.

In “Regretting You,” a mother, Morgan (Williams), and daughter, Clara (Grace), have to navigate shifting family dynamics following a devastating car accident. But the real trauma comes afterwards, when the fallout of the crash reveals a shocking secret. While Clara tackles her deep grief, she is comforted by the local bad boy, Miller (Mason Thames). Meanwhile, Morgan finds solace of her own in "the one that got away", Jonah (Franco).

‘One Battle After Another’ (2025)

Paul Thomas Anderson’s all-conquering “One Battle After Another” arrived on Prime Video over the weekend and has already rocketed into the top 10. This Oscar-dominating action-thriller scooped six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and has been recognised by critics as not just one of the best movies of 2025, but of the entire decade. It’s got everything you could want: ratcheting tension, excellent filmmaking, and clever comedy.

Leonardo DiCaprio plays Bob Ferguson, a former revolutionary in hiding with his daughter, Willa (Chase Infiniti). Living off the grid and wrapped in paranoia, Bob’s worst fear comes true when Willa goes missing, and his past deeds catch up with him. Scrambling to locate his daughter, he must also contend with a vengeful adversary, Colonel Lockjaw (Sean Penn). The movie also packs excellent turns from Benicio del Toro and Regina Hall.
