'The Naked Gun' (2025) - Amazon Prime Video Lieutenant Frank Drebin Jr. (Liam Neeson), son of venerated late police officer Frank Drebin Sr. (Leslie Nielsen), is a master at what he does, but his over-the-top style of policing becomes a legal liability, forcing his police chief to reassign him. But when he starts investigating the fatal car crash of a software engineer, he becomes quickly embroiled in a wide-reaching conspiracy involving the man's seductive crime novelist sister, Beth (Pamela Anderson), and his shady employer Richard Crane (Danny Huston), that will necessitate Frank's particular set of skills. The best comedy film of 2025 is a worthy soft reboot of its '80s predecessor and a fresh, modern treatment brought to us by one of the creatives behind The Lonely Island. Featuring stellar comedic performances across the board from Neeson, Anderson and Huston, The Naked Gun is a laugh riot absurdist farce that will make you believe in the mid-budget comedy again. Stream The Naked Gun now on Prime Video. 'Run Away' Season 1 - Netflix The 2019 Harlan Coben novel Run Away is finally getting the TV series treatment in 2025, with James Nesbitt, Minnie Driver, Ruth Jones and Alfred Enoch among its very British cast. The story follows a father desperately trying to help his daughter, who is an addict living in New York City and stuck in an abusive relationship. However, the situation is much darker than the father realizes, and he soon finds himself journeying through a seedy underworld to find his daughter when she goes missing. Fans of Coben's indulgent and twisty crime stories will likely find a lot to love in Run Away, with a story that has been sitting as prime real estate for a streaming adaptation for the past six years. Early reviews of the series suggest that it's one of the best Coben adaptations yet, with some critics asserting that it's not only highly bingeable but also well-written with an intricate plot that draws you in and doesn't let go. Stream Run Away January 1 on Netflix. 'Together' (2025) - Hulu Real-life married couple Dave Franco and Alison Brie put their marriage to the test in this horror movie about a couple who find themselves physically fusing together. Whether that premise sounds like a dream or a nightmare situation to you is between you and your own partner, but in Together, the scenario becomes a delightfully grotesque manifestation of co-dependency and communication problems. Franco and Brie star as Tim and Millie, respectively, who trade their New York City lifestyle for the rural countryside when Millie gets a better-paying teaching job outside of the city. Already many years into their relationship, the move begins to highlight simmering tensions and an emotional distance between the couple that they've left unspoken. However, these issues are plunged into chaos when a strange and powerful force seems hell-bent on literally forcing them together. Stream Together on December 31 on Hulu.
