The weekends are made for watching movies, and when it’s a longer weekend, you’ve got even more time to stream some great films. And when it comes to movie choices, Prime Video is one of the best streaming services. The Amazon-backed platform already has a vast library, and it’s regularly adding new options for subscribers to add to their watchlists.Of course, there’s a downside to having so much choice: you might spend more time over the Juneteenth weekend trying to decide what to watch than actually streaming. That’s why I’ve combed through Prime Video's June 2026 slate and picked out a trio of recent arrivals that you should consider watching this weekend. There’s plenty of variety in my selections, from a coming-of-age tale to a steamy romantic drama and a family pick.These are the new to Prime Video movies that you should stream over the long weekend.'Are You There, God? It’s Me Margaret’ (2023)

Based on Judy Blume’s seminal coming-of-age novel of the same name, I’m told that “Are You There, God? It’s Me Margaret” is highly relatable. I can’t quite verify that as it’s about an 11-year-old girl going through puberty, and for the avoidance of doubt, I am not, nor have I ever been, a middle school girl.But I can confirm it’s a funny and compelling story about growing up and all the awkward moments and hurdles that come along with adolescence.Set in the 1970s, Margaret is far from pleased when her parents (Rachel McAdams and Benny Safdie) inform her they’re uprooting the family from New York City to a New Jersey suburb. Settling into her new suburban home, she faces growing pains as she tries to make new friends and come to terms with the changes in her life. But on hand to offer support are her caring mother (McAdams) and her fiercely protective grandmother (Kathy Bates).Watch "Are You There, God?
