If you're looking for something to watch in May, Amazon Prime Video is adding a few solid options. The selection includes both light romantic comedies and something for action fans. It's the perfect lineup for those evenings when you want to relax and not waste time on lengthy searches. Among the new (and returning) titles are productions that work well as typical "comfort movies," but also those that provide pure entertainment.
"Because I Said So" and "Long Shot" – light, fun, and heartfelt
Because I Said So is a classic romantic comedy starring Diane Keaton as an overprotective mother trying to orchestrate her daughter's love life… without her knowledge. The film is warm, sometimes absurd, but that's exactly why it works well as a light watch to lift your spirits. It's one of those titles that doesn't try to be ambitious; it simply aims to provide enjoyment and does so very effectively. On the other hand, Long Shot is a more modern romantic comedy with a touch of politics and great chemistry between Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen. The story of a former crush resurfacing in the main character's life at the least expected moment is both funny and surprisingly honest. The film stands out for its dialogues and humor, but it also manages to add something more than just laughs, making it one of the more interesting entries in this collection.
“The Equalizer” is pure action and satisfaction
If you’re in the mood for something stronger, The Equalizer is the perfect choice. Denzel Washington embodies a former soldier who cannot stand by injustice. The film relies on a simple but effective formula of plenty of action, a vivid hero, and satisfying confrontations with opponents. This is cinema that doesn’t pretend to be more than it is meant to be – entertainment, and it does that very well. Additionally, the subsequent installments of the series are appearing on Prime Video, making it possible to have a small marathon. It’s a great option for an evening when you just want to “turn off your brain” and watch something dynamic, with well-executed action scenes and a charismatic hero.
