The Best Movies and New Shows on Amazon Prime in April 2023

Top Gun (1986) (April 1)

Have you heard anything regarding the sequel? Last year, it saved Hollywood by demonstrating that if you give viewers what they want — in this case, 60-year-old Tom Cruise in a fighter plane — they’ll come back to theatres, driven by the AARP group. Top Gun: Maverick, the original Tony Scott picture about a group of elite Navy jet pilots who play topless beach volleyball between missions, doesn’t have the same visceral you’re-in-the-cockpit punch as Top Gun: Maverick, but it’s still an action-packed, nostalgia-laced fun.

The rumour in Hollywood in the months leading up to its premiere was that director James Cameron was ready to hatch an ocean-liner-sized egg. Everyone predicted a massive flop. Didn’t everyone get it wrong? Titanic immediately became the biggest smash hit of its day, the first film to gross more than a billion dollars, propelling its stars, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, to the top of the A-list.

Everyone has their favourite movies, just like a box of chocolates. This picture about a sweet-natured simpleton (Tom Hanks, 66) who wanders about the twentieth century running into one historical event after another, is a delicious delight for some but sickly for others. In any case, it must be acknowledged how unusual a piece of cinema is, unfolding more like a modern novel than a film. It has no villains, no primary conflict, and, in fact, no story at all. Yet, a sizable portion of the audience fell hopelessly in love with Gump.

Half Raymond Chandler mystery, part Cheech & Chong stoner frolic — and all Jeff Bridges, 73, who plays the film’s pothead hero trying to recover a stolen rug that “truly brought the room together” — when it initially came out, critics were perplexed. Audiences didn’t like it either; it only made $5 million in its first weekend. But the Dude lives on, and Lebowski has earned its proper place as one of the best off-kilter comedies of all time.

If you were watching Nathan Fielder’s The Rehearsal and wanted to practice jury duty, it may look like this. To everyone but one guy, this entirely orchestrated instance of jury service is a hoax, but he’s determined to do his best to uphold our judicial system. Everyone else, including the judge, lawyers, and jury members, is an actor. Pauly Shore will not be present, but James Marsden will, and he will portray a version of himself who badly wants to avoid jury duty. This appears to be wild.

What if Sully, although the hero pilot, was just a random person in the front seat? Dennis Quaid plays a guy who has to land a plane with his family on board after the pilot becomes disabled in this made-for-streaming film based on a true tale. Make room on the runway for schmaltz!

Midge (Rachel Brosnahan) is on the verge of superstardom in the last season of Prime Video’s Emmy-winning comedy, and… So far, that’s all we’ve learned from the trailer. Yet, if you appreciate fancy dresses and hats with a dash of fast-talking and interrupting and a smattering of outstanding performances from Tony Shalhoub, Alex Borstein, and Marin Hinkle, you’ll be OK.

What could be better than one Rachel Weisz? That’s right; there are two Rachel Weiszes. Dead Ringers is a modern, gender-flipped retelling of David Cronenberg’s film of the same name, starring Weisz in roles formerly portrayed by Jeremy Irons. She portrays Elliot and Beverly Mantle, toxically co-dependent twin gynaecologists (such a mouthful) who aren’t afraid to breach the Hippocratic Oath in order to combat chauvinism in women’s health care. Take us on board.

Citadel may be Amazon’s most expensive series, but The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power maybe its most ambitious. The Russo brothers’ action-thriller stars Game of Thrones‘ Richard Madden and Quantico’s Priyanka Chopra as spies for Citadel, an agency “loyal to no country,” as Stanley Tucci’s mic drops in the teaser. They’re brought back into Citadel eight years after being double-crossed and losing all memory of who they were to save the world or something, presumably.

 

If that sounds like a lot, it is, but it gets a lot more “a lot.” Four international spin-off series, which will be locally produced in different languages and contain interconnected plots with the other series, are also planned to expand the universe in the Marvel tradition. Russo it up, brothers Russo!
