Best Prime Video top 10 movies to stream right now
‘Crime 101’ (2026)
If you haven’t gotten around to streaming “Crime 101” yet, you should: Bart Layton’s slick crime thriller is worth the watch, and it’s still managed to stay in the top 10 despite originally coming to the platform on April 1.
“Crime 101” revolves around an elusive master thief (Chris Hemsworth) who has continued to dodge law enforcement as he plans and executes non-violent robberies along LA’s 101 freeway. We join our thief as he’s on the cusp of the score of a lifetime, and he crosses paths with a disillusioned insurance broker (Halle Berry), the lone detective (Mark Ruffalo) who has been pursuing him relentlessly and a volatile younger crook (Barry Keoghan) who’s not as careful as he is.
Already streamed it? Here are five more crime thriller movies to watch after “Crime 101” that you might want to add to your watchlist instead.

‘Regretting You’ (2025)
At the time of writing, “Regretting You” is at the top of Prime Video’s charts, and if you’re looking for a romantic drama, this could be the watch for you. The film got the thumbs-up from TG’s own Senior Entertainment Editor, Rory Mellon, who wrote, “I found myself getting swept up in the drama and intensity” (even if he conceded it has “major flaws”) when it first landed on the streaming service.
“Regretting You” is an adaptation of a Colleen Hoover novel that introduces us to the tight-knit Grant family: mother Morgan (Allison Williams), father Chris (Scott Eastwood), and daughter Clara (McKenna Grace). Also, Morgan’s sister, Jenny (Willa Fitzergerld), and her partner, Jonah (Dave Franco). When a car accident reveals a betrayal, the remaining family members are left trying to move on from their one-perfect life. And in that moment, Clara strikes up a connection with bad boy, Miller Adams (Mason Thames).

‘The Running Man’ (2025)
Let’s round the list out with Edgar Wright’s adaptation of “The Running Man.” While it disappointed at the box office, the film’s been a big hit with viewers at home. Since “The Running Man” came to Prime Video last month, it’s been one of the most popular movies on the platform.
If you missed it last year, “The Running Man” sees angry, down-on-his-luck everyman Ben Richards (Glen Powell) taking part in a deadly, hugely popular gameshow in order to win the cash he needs to save his sick daughter. His task? Go on the run, dodging the lethal “Hunters” who are out to get him for 30 days. Early on his run, Ben proves far more resilient than he first appeared and he becomes a huge hit with the viewers at home… making him a threat to “The Network” and everything they’ve built in this dystopian near-future.
