The 3 Best Movies to Watch on Prime Video This Week

As the new month begins, there are plenty of films to choose from when streaming on Prime Video. To help with the decision, here are the three best movies to watch this week. Paramount Pictures has released "The Last Holiday," a holiday movie with a twist, "Just My Luck," a Lindsay Lohan film that holds up well, and "Just One of the Guys," a 1985 Shakespeare adaptation.

"The Last Holiday" stars Queen Latifah as Georgia Byrd, a department store assistant who has never pursued her dreams. After being told she has a rare brain condition and only has weeks left to live, Georgia decides to spend her remaining time on a luxury holiday in Europe. This movie is more about seizing the moment and living life to the fullest than it is a traditional Christmas film, making it a perfect transition from Halloween.

"Just My Luck" features Lindsay Lohan as Ashley Albright, a young woman who seems to have all the luck in the world. One day, she crosses paths with Jake Hardin (Chris Pine), who always seems to have bad luck. When they meet, their luck switches, unbeknownst to them. As they navigate this strange situation, they eventually fall in love. This 2006 film is a great addition to any movie night.

Lastly, if you're a fan of Jane Austen's "Twelfth Night," you might enjoy "Just One of the Guys." This 1985 adaptation stars Joyce Hyser as Terri Griffith, a high school student and aspiring journalist. Frustrated by the fact that her teachers don't take her articles seriously due to her good looks, Terri enrolls at a rival high school as a boy named "Terry" while her parents are away.

This film is full of the shenanigans you know and love from Shakespeare adaptations, proving that modern adaptations still have a secret sauce that works.
