The weekend has arrived! It's time to make the tough decision of whether to watch a movie in theaters or stream the latest feature from home -- or, perhaps, both. Here are four movies to watch, including a few you may have missed.
It's a slow movie weekend, folks! The romcom Which Brings Me To You is the only new release we have to share. But if you're not into this genre, there are three other movies we list. These premiered earlier this month, but may have been missed due to the post-holiday season blues.
- The Marvels, now available to purchase on VOD
- Role Play, streaming on Prime Video
- Which Brings Me To You, in theaters now
- The Beekeeper, in theaters now
The Marvels became available to purchase on VOD platforms, such as Vudu and Prime Video, on Jan. 16. If you missed the movie in theaters (or simply want to rewatch it), this weekend is the perfect time to do so! Another movie to watch from the comfort of your own home is Role Play. The action-comedy is streaming on Prime Video and stars Kaley Cuoco and David Oyelowo.
Want to head to the big screen for something new with a side of romance? Check out Which Brings Me To You, a romcom starring Lucy Hale and Nat Wolff. At the time of this writing, the movie has a 65% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes. It's a great score for a romantic comedy, a genre that, ironically, doesn't always get a lot of love from critics. If you want to start welcoming the Valentine's season, this movie could be the one.
Finally, buried by the buzz of the musical movie Mean Girls, is Jason Statham's The Beekeeper. Action fans may have missed this movie (released last week on Jan. 12), thanks to the release of the highly anticipated Mean Girls musical adaptation. If you want my two cents, I would wait for The Beekeeper to hit streaming, but if you're all about action-packed adventures, go see Statham take on a gang of scammers this weekend.
Will you be watching one of the listed movies this weekend? Do you know one we should add? Sad there aren't more movies to share? Hang tight! February is bringing us several promising features, including Argylle, Lisa Frankenstein and Madame Web.
