Paramount+ is the perfect streaming service for your next movie marathon. It adds dozens of movies every month, with most dropping on the platform on the first day of the new month. This month, the first day of the month saw 76 new movies added to the Paramount+ library.

That’s a lot of newly added movies to choose from; it can be tough to know where to start. I’ve looked through the full list of everything new on Paramount+ in March, though, and found the three movies you need to watch first this weekend. This weekend I’m going with a theme: crime-fighting. All three movies I’ve picked have a dynamic duo taking down some bad guys, and all are highly rated.

Watch On

Genre: Buddy cop action comedy

What’s it about? “21 Jump Street” stars Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum as Morton Schmidt and Greg Jenko (Channing Tatum). These two were once high school classmates, but now they’re partners as part of the 21 Jump Street undercover cop program.

Why you should watch it: Having these two go undercover at a high school where everyone knows they look way too old is hilarious in its own right, but trust me, this movie will have you laughing until you cry with comedy bit after comedy bit.

Watch On

Genre: Spy action comedy

What’s it about? Carmen (Alexa Pena Vega) and Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara), assume their parents (Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino) lead ordinary lives. But they’re actually retired spies, and now their kids have to save them from the evil Fegan Floop (Alan Cumming)

Why you should watch it: I loved “Spy Kids” when I saw it in theaters, but looking back, it’s incredible the cast that Robert Rodriguez put together for this family film. It’s also incredible that the guy who did “From Dusk Till Dawn” did a kids’ movie, and then spun off one of the characters to make the absolutely brutal “Machete” years later.
