Prime Video top 10 movies — here’s the 3 worth watching this week (Sept. 28-Oct. 4)

Looking for something to watch on Prime Video this week? The platform’s top 10 most-watched list is a great place to start. While being on the ever-changing charts doesn’t guarantee a movie’s worth, I’ve carefully reviewed the latest Prime Video top 10 movies list and selected three that deserve your attention. These include a new Prime Video original rom-com, a nostalgic fantasy blockbuster, and a Western drama with a tragic background. These three movies are worth adding to your watchlist.

The Love Hypothesis (2026) is a feature film adaptation of Ali Hazelwood’s best-selling novel. Released last week on September 23, it quickly rose to the top spot in Prime Video’s top 10. Despite its oddly washed-out color palette, the rom-com charm makes it a perfect choice to chase away Monday blues. In the story, PhD student Olive (Reinhart) tries to prove to her best friend that she’s over her crush by kissing a professor.

This leads to a pretend relationship with set rules and boundaries, only for their fake romance to turn real. Watch it on Prime Video now.

Masters of the Universe (2026) is a fantasy blockbuster that may have failed at the box office, but found a receptive audience on Prime Video. With a 86% viewer score on Rotten Tomatoes, fans of the beloved Mattel toy range will enjoy this adaptation. The story follows Prince Adam, who returns to his fantastical home Eternia to fulfill his destiny as the legendary warrior He-Man. Watch it on Prime Video now.

Rust (2024) is a Western starring Alec Baldwin, but its on-set tragedy involving cinematographer Halyna Hutchins overshadows the film. Despite the controversy, the movie chronicles the tale of two adolescent boys who must fend for themselves in 19th-century Wyoming after their parents' deaths. When the older sibling accidentally kills someone while hunting, he faces a tragic ending. The film is dedicated to the memory of Halyna Hutchins. Watch Rust on Prime Video now.
