The 3 Best Movies to Watch on Paramount+ This Week

As November unfolds, movie enthusiasts have a bountiful calendar to choose from, with titles such as "Godzilla Minus Zero," "The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth," and "I Play Rocky" gracing theater screens. Paramount+ offers a complement to this lineup, featuring some of David Fincher's finest works and the ultimate Rocky film. Here are the three top movies to watch on Paramount+ this week.

The 2015 reboot of the beloved Rocky franchise, "Creed," takes center stage. Directed by Ryan Coogler and co-written by Aaron Covington, this installment brings a fresh perspective to the long-running boxing saga. Focusing on legacy and lineage, the movie introduces Adonis Creed (Michael B. Jordan) as the new underdog, while Stallone delivers his most captivating performance yet as the aging Rocky Balboa.

With its emotional intensity and inspiring climax, "Creed" is a must-watch for both fans of the series and newcomers alike.

Returning to theaters is the iconic kaiju, Godzilla, in Takashi Yamazaki's "Godzilla Minus Zero." This sequel to Yamazaki's 2023 Oscar-winning take on the monster, follows in the footsteps of Gareth Edwards' 2014 version and expands the ever-expanding MonsterVerse. Screenwriter Max Borenstein, working from a story by David Callaham, crafts a grounded foundation that complements Godzilla's awe-inspiring visual spectacle.

With Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike headlining the crime drama "The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth," David Fincher reunites with Quentin Tarantino to deliver another captivating crime tale. Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike lead a stellar cast in this layered mystery, where Affleck plays a man becoming the prime suspect after his wife goes missing.

Though it's difficult to single out a single masterpiece in Fincher's illustrious career, "Gone Girl" undoubtedly belongs in the upper echelon of his filmography.
