As a new month begins, Prime Video<\/a> is refreshing its library with a fresh wave of movies. June 2026 brings plenty of new arrivals, and there are several standout picks worth adding to your watchlist this week.<\/p>\n

To make things easier, I\u2019ve rounded up titles that hold a 90% or higher score on Rotten Tomatoes. While ratings aren\u2019t everything, reaching that mark usually means a movie has earned strong critical acclaim. The list includes a romantic comedy sports film starring Kevin Costner, a deeply moving biographical drama, and one of Rachel McAdams\u2019 most overlooked comedy films.<\/p>\n

These five recently added Prime Video movies have all earned impressive reviews from critics.<\/p>\n

\u201cBull Durham\u201d is considered by critics and sports historians to be one of the greatest baseball movies ever made. Written and directed by Ron Shelton, the romantic sports comedy was a massive box office hit and earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay. Shelton was actually a former professional baseball player who spent five years grinding through the Baltimore Orioles’ minor league system. He used his real-world experiences to strip away the glossy Hollywood perfection of the sport.<\/p>\n

Set in the world of minor league baseball, \u201cBull Durham\u201d follows veteran catcher Crash Davis (Kevin Costner), who is sent to the Durham Bulls to mentor talented but reckless rookie pitcher Ebby Calvin \u201cNuke\u201d LaLoosh (Tim Robbins). As Crash tries to turn Nuke into a player capable of reaching the major leagues, both men become involved with Annie Savoy (Susan Sarandon), a devoted baseball fan who takes a special interest in promising players each season.<\/p>\n

\u201cHoosiers\u201d is another great sports drama worth adding to your watchlist. It was actually selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being \u201cculturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.\u201d While the film uses basketball as its backdrop, the heart of \u201cHoosiers\u201d actually lies in its characters. Their struggles, growth, and second chances are what make it so memorable. However, what\u2019s most impressive is the legendary musical score composed by Jerry Goldsmith.<\/p>\n

Set in 1950s Indiana, \u201cHoosiers\u201d centers around Norman Dale (Gene Hackman), a former college basketball coach given a second chance when he takes over a struggling team. His strict methods and troubled past quickly put him at odds with players, parents, and townspeople. Dale works to rebuild the team while also recruiting the town\u2019s alcoholic former basketball star, Shooter Flatch (Dennis Hopper), as his assistant coach. When local standout Jimmy Chitwood (Maris Valainis) rejoins the squad, the team embarks on an unlikely run through the state tournament.<\/p>\n

Lastly, we have the beautifully crafted, widely acclaimed adaptation of Judy Blume\u2019s seminal 1970 masterpiece novel, \u201cAre You There God?

It handles big questions around faith, biology, and identity with care and respect, ultimately working as a comforting, uplifting watch that feels like a cinematic hug for audiences of all ages.<\/p>\n

Like the book, the movie follows 11-year-old Margaret Simon (Abby Ryder Fortson), who moves from New York City to suburban New Jersey with her parents, Barbara (Rachel McAdams) and Herb (Benny Safdie).
