This time the platform is focusing on titles that have won acclaim from both critics and audiences, achieving at least 90% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Among them is one of the most highly rated dark comedies of recent years, an award-winning comedy-drama by Paul Thomas Anderson, and an inspiring story based on true events.
Prime Video adds three highly rated films to its library
The biggest new arrival is "Joy Ride" (2023), a comedy about a group of female friends embarking on an action-packed journey across Asia. The film has earned strong critical praise for its bold humour, charismatic cast and dynamic storyline. Also joining the catalogue is "Licorice Pizza", an award-winning comedy-drama directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. The film tells the story of the unconventional relationship between two young people growing up in California in the 1970s and was praised for its screenplay, atmosphere and performances. The third offering is "Fighting With My Family", a tale inspired by the true story of British wrestler Sarayi, known to WWE fans as Paige. The production blends elements of comedy, sports drama and biopic, showing the road to achieving dreams despite numerous obstacles. All three films have at least 90% positive reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, making them some of the highest-rated new arrivals in Prime Video's August line-up. Subscribers will receive a diverse selection of titles representing different genres and storytelling styles. It's another month in which Amazon focuses not only on the number of releases but also on their high quality.

The new films are aimed at a very wide audience. "Joy Ride" will appeal to fans of bold comedies full of unpredictable situations and sharp dialogue. "Licorice Pizza" is for viewers who value auteur cinema and stories that focus on relationships between characters. Meanwhile, "Fighting With My Family" will interest those who enjoy biographical and sports films, especially as it tells the true story of one of WWE's most recognisable performers. All three titles share very high critic ratings and a positive audience reception after release. That means viewers looking for worthwhile films won't have to comb through the platform's entire catalogue to find titles worth watching.

August's new releases also show that the service doesn't confine itself to in-house productions but readily picks up respected films from various studios. For many users, this could be one of the more interesting library updates in recent weeks. So if you're looking for a film for an evening in, the new Prime Video releases are definitely worth adding to your list.
