Top Streaming Movies for the Weekend

Streaming entertainment can be overwhelming with the sheer number of options available. To make your weekend viewing a little easier, we’ve rounded up the must-watch movies hitting streaming services right now.

First up, we have “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You” on HBO Max. This film stars Rose Byrne as a single mom dealing with a crumbling house and her daughter’s mysterious medical condition. Conan O’Brien plays her therapist, and ASAP Rocky delivers a standout performance. It’s been described as “Uncut Gems for mothers,” so get ready for some intense moments.

Next, check out “Peter Hujar’s Day” on Criterion Channel. This isn’t your typical biopic, but rather a deep dive into the life of photographer Peter Hujar. Ben Whishaw shines in this feature-length interview style film, chatting with writer Linda Rosenkrantz about art, insecurities, and life in 1974 New York.

For a thought-provoking watch, tune into “Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight” on Netflix. Based on Alexandra Fuller’s memoir, this film explores racism and war through the eyes of a young girl. It’s a powerful story handled with intelligence, and the young lead, Lexi Venter, delivers a wonderful performance.

If you’re in the mood for some action, check out “The Wrecking Crew” on Prime Video. Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista team up as estranged brothers seeking revenge for their father’s murder. It’s a fun, brainless action-comedy with explosive set pieces and plenty of one-liners.

Lastly, we have “Tin Soldier” on Hulu. Starring Scott Eastwood, Jamie Foxx, and Robert De Niro, this action-thriller has been flying under the radar despite its star-studded cast. It may have received mixed reviews, but if you’re looking for a movie with big names and plenty of action, give it a try.

With these five films lined up, your weekend viewing is sorted. Grab some popcorn, settle in, and enjoy the show!
