Scrolling through Prime Video and not sure what to pick? The library is huge, so I made a short list of the best movies on Amazon Prime Video. Most of them are Amazon originals, which means they are on Prime Video in almost every country, including Oman and the rest of the Gulf. At the end you will find popular films that come to Prime in some countries too.
Amazon original movies
1. Air (2023)
Ben Affleck directs and Matt Damon stars in the true story of how Nike signed a young Michael Jordan and created the Air Jordan shoe. Air is funny, smart and feels good from start to end, even if you do not care about basketball.
2. Road House (2024)
Jake Gyllenhaal plays a former UFC fighter working as a bouncer in the Florida Keys. Big fights, beautiful beaches and Conor McGregor as the wild villain. One of the most watched films on Prime Video.
3. Saltburn (2023)
Barry Keoghan plays an Oxford student who is invited to spend the summer at the huge country house of a rich classmate, played by Jacob Elordi. Saltburn is dark, strange and impossible to stop watching. It is for adults only.
4. Red One (2024)
When Santa Claus is kidnapped, the head of the North Pole security, Dwayne Johnson, has to team up with a hacker played by Chris Evans to save Christmas. A big action comedy for the whole family.
5. The Idea of You (2024)

12. One Night in Miami (2020)
Regina King's film imagines one night in 1964 when Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, Sam Cooke and Jim Brown met in a hotel room. Great acting and great conversations.
