It’s Memorial Day Weekend! That means barbecues, sunshine and the beach — but if you need to get out of the sun for a bit, why not queue up a movie on Amazon Prime Video?

Tom Cruise stars in this classic action movie about fighter pilots at the United States Navy’s Fighter Weapons School (also known as Top Gun) at Naval Air Station Miramar in San Diego, California.
Top Gun has everything — action, romance and even beach volleyball. Cruise plays Lieutenant Pete “Maverick” Mitchell, a young naval aviator whose friendship with his radar intercept officer, Lieutenant Nick “Goose” Bradshaw (), forms the heart of the movie. Come for the fighter jets, stay for the song “Take My Breath Away” by Berlin. Once you’ve watched Top Gun, you can also enjoy Top Gun: Maverick, the 2022 sequel that became a box office smash.
We recommend you don’t watch this movie until after your Memorial Day BBQ, because it will definitely make you lose your appetite — but it will also make you laugh until you cry. In Sausage Party, all food is secretly sentient. It lives in the grocery store and is waiting to be chosen by “the Gods” (aka humans) to be taken “to the Great Beyond.”
But when Frank () gets an inkling that the Great Beyond may not be the paradise they’ve been led to believe, he and his friends begin to investigate the true nature of the world outside the supermarket. Sausage Party stars a voice cast of comedy greats like and , and in addition to great laughs, it also delivers some interesting social commentary about religion.

This rom-com is based on the hit novel of the same name by and tells the story of a love affair between Alex, the First Son of the United States (Taylor Zakhar Perez) and Henry, the youngest prince of England (Nicholas Galitzine).
The duo starts out despising each other, but as their enmity turns to love, they wonder if their families, let alone their countries, will accept them. It’s a sweet, aspirational movie that takes classic romantic comedy tropes and puts them through a romantic queer lens.
