Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre – Guy Ritchie’s Latest Blend of Thrills and Laughs
If you’re hungry for a stylish spy thriller packed with major Hollywood muscle, Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre stands out as the current top trending movie on Prime Video. Directed by Guy Ritchie, whose signature touch weaves together rapid-fire dialogue, kinetic action and sly humor, this film pulls viewers into the covert world of Orson Fortune, portrayed by Jason Statham. Statham is joined by an all-star cast: Aubrey Plaza disrupts clichés as the tech-savvy Sarah Fidel, while Josh Hartnett, Hugh Grant, and Cary Elwes round out a team that knows how to bicker almost as well as they spy. The plot unfolds around an unlikely recruitment—a Hollywood A-lister enlisted to stage a globe-trotting operation that feels one part blockbuster, one part meta-Hollywood fun. Ritchie aficionados will catch echoes of his earlier hits, but here the thrill comes from the seamless fusion of satirical self-awareness with genuinely slick espionage set-pieces. For those who want their spy flicks with both edge and wit, this is your stream of the week.
Charlie’s Angels – Kickstart the Franchise Before the Next Chapter
Modern action-comedy owes a debt to Charlie’s Angels, the franchise reboot that launched new icons at the turn of the century. With recent news swirling around a new Charlie’s Angels script in development, there’s never been a better time to revisit (or discover) the dynamic trio led by Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Lucy Liu. The film delivers a blast of early-2000s energy—martial arts, covert gadgets, slow-motion acrobatics, and outrageous disguises, all tied together with the chemistry of three characters redefining teamwork and friendship in the action genre. When a tech inventor is kidnapped amid a corporate conspiracy, the Angels must deploy their full arsenal to outmaneuver villains and save the day. The sharp tempo and playful tone make it more than an action movie; it’s a joyful ride down pop culture memory lane, dishing out just as much heart as it does high-flying stunts.

The film quickly evolves into a kinetic journey of self-discovery and choices, as June finds herself entangled between Will—the quintessential nice guy—and James, the enigmatic bad boy. While it honors classic rom-com tropes, the narrative is delivered in a brisk, relatable rhythm, ideal for viewers who want poignant moments without the marathon commitment. The sun-drenched Italian scenery and heartfelt performances add to its easy appeal, making it a compelling option for romance seekers wanting something new yet familiar.
