Charlize Theron gives Keanu Reeves a run for his money in this action-thriller that feels very inspired by “John Wick.” It comes from director David Leitch, who was reportedly an (uncredited) co-director on the first Wick movie, so it’s perhaps no surprise that “Atomic Blonde” shares a lot of DNA. Set just days before the collapse of the Berlin Wall, this movie is an uber-stylish adrenaline-raiser with some memorable neon-lit action scenes.Theron plays Lorraine Broughton, a high-ranking MI6 agent who is sent to Berlin to retrieve a watch stolen by a KGB agent. But this timepiece is more than a fancy accessory; it holds the name of every active intelligence agent in Berlin, so its return is of paramount importance. Once on the scene, Lorraine is drawn into a dangerous spy game where the line between friend and foe blurs. “John Wick” fans will love “Atomic Blonde."Watch "Atomic Blonde" on Prime Video now‘Cape Fear’ (1991)“Cape Fear” was the seventh collaboration between director Martin Scorsese and star Robert De Niro. A remake of the 1962 movie of the same name, it’s a chilling psychological thriller in which De Niro plays one of the genre’s most disturbing villains, and Scorsese brings his usual filmmaking wizardry to the table. Unsurprisingly, De Niro scooped a deserved Oscar nomination for his role as a convicted psychopath out for revenge.Sign up to the weekly Tom's Streaming Guide to stay in the loop with the latest releases and top recommendations across your favorite streaming services.
