Stuck on Prime Video? Discover the most popular movies to watch this week

These days, there are more than 2.3 million different titles across streaming platforms, so it's safe to say it can be overwhelming to pick something new to watch. According to a 2023 survey from Nielsen, a fifth of audiences report being so inundated by the sheer quantity of streaming content out there, that when they go to pick something new to watch, they just give up and choose to do something else instead.
If you're in the same boat and often spend more time scrolling through your options than actually watching movies, we're here to help with a ranking of the most popular movies on Prime Video this week.
Since Amazon debuted it nearly two decades ago, Prime Video has developed a reputation for offering an especially well-stocked library of content. As it has continued to grow in popularity with audiences around the world, the platform has expanded its catalog to include a huge variety of Academy Award-winning dramas, classic comedies, nail-biting thrillers, and much more. Plus, Prime has a robust original content slate that includes everything from Oscar nominee "Argentina, 1985" to the horror remake "Goodnight Mommy," both released in 2022.
With many other streamers like AMC+, Paramount+, and Cinemax available as add-ons, Prime Video's offerings are vast and rotate frequently; there's almost always something new to check out (quite literally if you choose to watch through the platform's digital movie rental service).
To help you sort through the tens of thousands of films available to watch on Prime Video, Stacker has compiled a ranking of the 10 most popular movies on the platform this week, using data from Reelgood as of March 20, 2025. Information from IMDb has also been included for further insights.
Now, you can stop wasting your time scrolling through movies and get straight to streaming!
