What’s leaving Amazon Prime Video UK in April / May 2023?
David Farnor | On 21, Apr 2023
Amazon Prime Video’s library of movies and TV shows is as sizeable as it is changeable, with new titles frequently dropping off as much as they arrive. Before you start bingeing through the line-up, don’t miss out on catching up with some old and new gems before their rights expire.
This is your last chance to stream the following with Amazon Prime UK:
John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum – 22nd April
Keanu Reeves is on killer form in this bloated action sequel, which avoids deja vu by dialling up the stylish mayhem.
Long Shot – 22nd April
This political rom-com is unabashedly rude, surprisingly sweet and very, very funny.
Mad Max: Fury Road – 23rd April
George Miller’s jaw-dropping post-apocalyptic actioner is insanely entertaining.
A Simple Favour – 25th April
Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick shine in this fun noir thriller.
Candyman (2021) – 27th April
Nia DaCosta’s artful horror sequel reflexively rewrites both the traditions of its own franchise and the white narratives of American history.
The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent – 28th April
Nic Cage is Nick Cage in this hugely entertaining, self-aware action comedy.
Piercing – 29th April
A darkly comic giallo-esque romance, torturously literalising all the dynamics of S&M, while accommodating the persistence of trauma.
Notting Hill – 1st May
Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts are irresistible in this peak Richard Curtis rom-com.
Battle Royale – 1st May
In the future, the Japanese government captures a class of ninth-grade students and forces them to kill each other under the revolutionary “Battle Royale” act.
The Impossible – 3rd May
Juan Antonio Bayona’s retelling of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami is a gruelling, harrowing, moving experience.
Catch Me If You Can – 9th May
Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks are a delight to watch in this caper about conman Frank Abagnale.
Clueless – 10th May
Perfectly updating Jane Austen for 1990s Beverly Hills, Clueless is an evergreen adaptation.
Coming to America – 12th May
Charming and disarming, Eddie Murphy’s ambitious rom-com mixes the silly with the sweet.
