3 New Prime Video Movies to Watch This Weekend (May 29-31): ‘Blink Twice' and More

If you're a Prime Video subscriber, there's a good chance you're watching Off Campus, the streamer's wildly popular new show.

That cheesy hockey romance isn't for everyone, which is why Watch With Us has put together a list of some new movies that promise thrills, chills and old-school stars.

Blink Twice with Channing Tatum tops our list, with the techno-thriller Missing and Robert Redford's comedic caper Sneakers not too far behind.

‘Blink Twice' (2024)

When cocktail waitress Frida (Naomi Ackie) and her friend, Jess (Alia Shawkat), are invited to billionaire Slater King's (Tatum) private island, they have no choice but to accept. After all, who could pass up a free trip to paradise? But even paradise has its drawbacks, and soon, Frida wants to leave. But when Jess goes missing, she's forced to figure out what happened to her friend and why Slater seems to be at the center of it. Is Jess paranoid, or is she in the middle of a conspiracy she can't escape from?

Blink Twice isn't even two years old, but it's already improved with age since the Jeffrey Epstein scandal re-gained cultural prominence in 2025. Directed by actress Zoë Kravitz, the film is an absorbing psychological thriller because it features an unreliable narrator, Frida, who may or may not be imagining things. For most of the film, you're never quite sure what's happening, and that's what makes Blink Twice so effective - and so unsettling.

Blink Twice is streaming on Prime Video.

‘Missing' (2023)

Although teenager June Allen (Euphoria‘s Storm Reid) sometimes clashes with her mother, Grace (Nia Long), she wants her to be happy, even if that involves her leaving her alone while vacationing with her new boyfriend, Kevin (Ken Leung). At first, June loves having the house all to herself, but when her mother fails to return, she becomes increasingly worried. With the police unhelpful, June has no choice but to figure out what happened to her mom - and why she might be in immediate danger.

Missing is a screenlife thriller told almost entirely through computer screens, surveillance cameras, mobile devices and anything that doesn't involve a traditional camera setup. Surprisingly, this unconventional approach works, lending Missing an urgency it wouldn't otherwise have if it were told with a traditional visual narrative. We see everything June sees, so we're with her every step of the way as she experiences all the frustration, relief and danger involved in searching for her missing mother. Missing shows just how tied our lives are to Big Brother, and how easy it is to find - and stalk - someone if you have the right equipment and knowledge to use it.

‘Sneakers' (1992)

Martin Bishop (Robert Redford) is a former 1960s radical who assumed a new identity after getting in trouble with the law. Now working as the head of a security team in San Francisco, he's established a comfortable life for himself. That's jeopardized when several NSA agents suddenly approach him with an offer: steal a Russian black box device that can hack into any system, and they won't reveal his true identity to the world. But nothing is what it seems in the world of high-tech espionage, and Martin discovers that no matter how careful he is, he can't outrun his past.

Sneakers is a movie Hollywood doesn't make anymore - an all-star action movie that doesn't take itself too seriously. Redford is as smooth as silk as Bishop, who has to think very quickly to stay ahead of a game he doesn't want to play. Equally entertaining are Sidney Poitier, Dan Ackroyd, River Phoenix and David Straitharin as members of Redford's hacker crew, who all have their own behavioral quirks that make them stand out.

Released at a time when the internet was just emerging in mainstream culture, Sneakers also functions as a fascinating time capsule of an era devoid of social media and mobile phones. The technology it features may be outdated, but its fear about how information is used - and who controls it - remains as relevant as ever.

Sneakers is streaming on Prime Video.
