Bloodshot

Need more of a grownup movie and still want action? STARZ has you covered, which you can get through Amazon Channels. Vin Diesel stars in the titular role in a movie that is based on the graphic novel.

The movie is about a soldier who dies in action. He’s brought back to life with nanotechnology, which makes him into a super-soldier. Now he’s tasked with one job, and he will have to relive the adventure until he carries out the mission. Will he decide to break from the people who made him?

Those who love Vin Diesel movies will definitely enjoy this. If you’re an Outlander fan, you’ll enjoy seeing Sam Heughan in a darker, villainous role.

You can watch today on the STARZ App.

Richard Jewell

Next up is another Amazon Channels movie. You’ll need HBO for this one. Richard Jewell is the 2019 movie that brought up the story from the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. Jewell is just a security guard, but he soon becomes a household name for all the wrong reasons.

After finding a suspicious backpack at Centennial Park, he evacuates the area to limit the devastation from the bomb inside. He’s initially hailed a hero, but then the FBI decides that he’s the prime suspect.

Paul Walter Hauser is outstanding as the titular character. It’s the performances that make this movie a must-watch.

Richard Jewell is available on HBO and HBO Max now.
