Summer is heating up, and there’s no better way to beat the heat than with some top-notch streaming entertainment. For those of us near Chicago, where I’m based, the 100-degree days are quickly approaching. That’s when I turn to the trusty streaming service king, Max. But with so many new movies popping up all the time, it can be tough to pick the next flick to watch.

Thankfully, I’ve got your back. We all know that the top 10 list on Max can be a mixed bag, so I did the hard work for you. I’ve sifted through the list to find the top three movies that are definitely worth your time.

Taking the lead this week are some heavy hitters. First up, we have a blockbuster video game adaptation that’s got kids everywhere buzzing, followed by a jaw-dropping thriller starring the talented Daisy Ridley, and lastly, a hilarious new satire from the brilliant mind behind “Succession.”

First on the list, we have “A Minecraft Movie.” With Minecraft fever in full swing this summer, it’s no surprise this film has claimed the top spot. Featuring Jack Black and a cast of colorful characters, this candy-coated blockbuster will transport you to the Minecraft Overworld in a whirlwind of adventure and imagination.

Next, we have “Cleaner,” a high-octane thriller that’s been climbing the charts since its debut. Directed by Martin Campbell and starring Daisy Ridley, this heart-pounding film follows a former soldier turned window cleaner as she battles eco-terrorists in a fight for survival that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Last but not least, we have “Mountainhead,” a satirical comedy-drama that takes a hilarious jab at ultra-rich tech bros. With a cast that includes Steve Carell and Jason Schwartzman, this film is equal parts absurd, timely, and entertaining, offering a unique and amusing take on the lives of the wealthy elite.
