The best movies on Amazon Prime Video (June 2024)
Peter Dinklage in Cyrano.

Do you get the end of the month blues while looking for movies to watch on Amazon Prime Video? That's something Amazon can deliver without a package. Aside from the I Am Celine Dion documentary, Prime Video isn't offering anything new while running down the clock to July. New movies will arrive on the first of the month, but it's going to be a long wait if you're bored with June's selections.

We've decided to put the focus on two movies in Prime Video's library: Cyrano and Edge of Darkness. Between those two flicks, romance and action fans have something they can enjoy. Until the first of July arrives, these are the best movies on Amazon Prime Video right now. And don't worry, we'll have some new selections for you in time for the Fourth of July weekend.

The pricing is the same if subscribed to both services individually, but this is a welcome supplement that makes anime on Prime more accessible. Even so, new viewers may feel overwhelmed by all the choices. But thanks to this monthly-updated guide, audiences can focus on some of the best anime on Prime Video right now. This includes Prime's native offerings and the premium Crunchyroll channel's content.
