Prime Video has plenty of hit movies, but did you know it also has films you may not have watched or even heard of? Watch With Us has curated a list of some of the under-the-radar gems you should watch this weekend. Revenge tales never go out of style, and they don't get much better than Steven Soderbergh's 1999 thriller, The Limey. If you crave drama, why not attend class with The History Boys? You can catch stars like Dominic Cooper, Russell Tovey and James Corden before they were famous. Finally, Colette offers costume drama thrills with the very British Keira Knightley playing one of France's most famous authors. 'The Limey' (1999) Terence Stamp just passed away at the age of 87, and most of his obituaries cited his work as Zod in Superman II. But the underrated English actor had a filmography that was as diverse as it was impressive, and one of his better, later movies was 1999's The Limey. In Soderbergh's neo-noir thriller, Stamp plays Wilson, a career criminal who arrives in Los Angeles investigating his estranged daughter Jenny's (Melissa George) mysterious murder. 8 New Movies to Watch This Weekend on Netflix, Prime Video, HBO Max, Hulu and More With the help of her friends, Elaine (Lesley Ann Warren) and Eduardo (Luis Guzman), Jimmy discovers her involvement with Terry Valentine (Peter Fonda), a shady record producer with ties to drug trafficking. Does Terry know what really happened to Jenny? And even if he does, will he be willing to tell Jimmy so the grieving father can finally lay his daughter to rest? The Limey is streaming on Prime Video. 'The History Boys' (2006) For a small group of English senior high school students, their futures rest on passing an upcoming history exam. To help them ace it, Tom Irwin (Stephen Campbell Moore) is hired to teach them everything about history and culture. But some of the students, particularly the rebellious Stuart Dakin (Dominic Cooper) and the lovesick David Posner (Samuel Barnett), have other things on their minds besides studying. Some of the hardest lessons happen when class is over, and for Tom, Stuart and David, their lives will forever be changed once the test is completed and school is over. An adaptation of the hit West End and Broadway play of the same name, The History Boys is deliberately talky and ultra-literate, with everyone equipped with a perfect, witty retort. Normally, that's a bad thing, but it works in The History Boys because all of its characters are supposed to be a little too smart for their own good. While the story's sexual politics are dubious, the carefree interplay between the students and their interactions with their bemused teachers is entertaining enough to forgive those flaws. The History Boys is streaming on Prime Video. 'Colette' (2018) Now recognized as one of France's best authors, the feminist icon Gabrielle Colette (Keira Knightley), or better known as simply Colette, started as a naive girl with an untrustworthy lover, Henry Gauthier-Villars (Dominic West). While Henry encourages her to write, he does so only so that her stories can be published under his name, allowing him to take all the credit. As Colette's stories grow in popularity, so too does Henry's desperation to keep up the masquerade that he's the real author. Will Colette wise up to Henry's deception? And even if she does, will turn-of-the-century France accept that a solo female novelist is capable of capturing the public's imagination? 5 Best Prime Video Movies to Watch in July 2025, Ranked by Rotten Tomatoes Score Colette is a fascinating study of two people - one who is creative but naive, and the other who lacks talent but is resourceful enough to be successful. At first, they complement each other, but Henry's ego crushes whatever feelings he truly has for Colette. He just can't accept that his wife is a better writer than he is, even if she doesn't initially care that he has no real talent. As the titular author, Knightley is persuasive in showing Colette's initial innocence and gradual radicalization. She makes you realize why Colette was so popular to begin with - she wrote about characters who overcame impossible odds to succeed because she had to do that herself. While it's first and foremost a costume drama about a woman who lived 150 years ago, Colette also feels like a modern empowerment tale that's even more relevant today. Colette is streaming on Prime Video.
