7. Be Happy (Bollywood)
IMDb Ratings- 6.4/10, Rotten Tomatoes- 58%, Prime Video- 6.4/10
Be Happy is a Bollywood movie that hits you right in the feels. It’s all about this dancer who’s super into her art, but she’s got some tough stuff going on with her dad. The movie looks at chasing dreams when you’re from a family that doesn’t see things your way and patching things up when emotions run high. The dance scenes are great.
Abhishek Bachchan and Nora Fatehi crush it in their roles, and the movie really speaks to Indian folks who know what it’s like to deal with family pressure. Some critics weren’t totally sold, but lots of people loved how it made them feel and how good it looked. It’s one of the few Bollywood movies on Prime in 2025 that did really well, not because it was perfect, but because it had heart, and families really got into it.
6. Ballerina: A John Wick Story
IMDb Ratings- 7/10, Rotten Tomatoes- 76%, Prime Video- 7/10
Ballerina, fresh out of the John Wick world, throws us into the life of a young woman assassin, a product of the Ruska Roma syndicate. When her father is killed, she goes on a revenge mission, diving deep into a scary criminal world.
The movie looks great, with some seriously rough fights and a dark story about getting even. It fits into the John Wick series, but it’s its own thing. People dig the vibe and how fast-paced it is. It might not be totally new, but it’s a good story on its own, with a lot of action and feels. It’s a worthy addition to the series and will grab anyone wanting a new face in the Wick scene.
5. Thunderbolts
IMDb Ratings- 7.2/10, Rotten Tomatoes- 88%, Prime Video- 7.2/10
“Thunderbolts” throws a bunch of shady antiheroes into a high-stakes secret mission. Think of it as a team of misfits, each with a dark past and a special set of skills. As they get pushed together, you see some real friction but also a weird sense of teamwork. It’s not your typical superhero movie since it mixes cool action scenes and witty lines with some feels.
People really liked the deep story and the tough moral stuff, which gave the film something extra. Even though there are tons of movies like this, “Thunderbolts” feels fresh because it cares about the characters and has a cool vibe. No surprise it was one of Prime’s most-watched movies of 2025.
4. Warfare
IMDb Ratings- 7.2/10, Rotten Tomatoes- 93%, Prime Video- 7.2/10
Warfare, inspired by a true military op, throws you right into the chaos of a Navy SEALs surveillance gig that goes south fast. You’re there with them, feeling the fear, the doubt, and the unbreakable bond these guys share when everything’s on the line. It’s a raw, honest take on battles today, skipping the shiny stuff to show the real emotional toll. The action hits hard but feels real, and the acting? Spot on. You’re not just watching; you’re invested in every choice they make. This isn’t your typical war flick; it makes you think about what war really costs.
3. Sinners
IMDb Ratings- 7.6/10, Rotten Tomatoes- 97%, Prime Video- 7.6/10
Sinners is one of those dark, action-packed dramas that sticks with you. It tells the story of twin brothers, messed up by life, who come back home to shake off the past. But instead, they find their town’s got a nasty problem, some kind of evil thing.
The movie gets into loyalty, trauma, and trying to make up for bad choices. It feels rough and violent. The characters are super flawed, but you can’t help but get into their stories. The plot has twists you won’t see coming and asks some tough questions about what’s right and wrong. The acting is great, and the way it’s shot gives it a real vibe that stays with you. This isn’t your usual shoot-’em-up; it takes its time and hits you in the feels, which is probably why it’s doing so well on Prime.
2. Eleven
IMDb Ratings- 7.4/10, Prime Video- 7.4/10
Eleven is a psychological thriller that really grabs you. It’s about a detective trying to solve a bunch of murders linked to a weird symbol and a slippery suspect.
The story is like a puzzle, full of suspense and mystery. The detective gets more and more obsessed as he finds lies, pain, and his own inner battles. The movie is written well and looks great, keeping you guessing until the end. Eleven is special because it focuses on the characters and has a mind-bending story. It’s not just about finding a killer but trying to get what goes on in the dark parts of people’s heads. The tension is there from start to finish, which makes it a thriller that stands out.
