Several great films arrive on Peacock<\/a> this November, including movies from directors like Christopher Nolan, Justin Lin and Steven Spielberg. \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d stars Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor both feature in movies hitting the service this month, as does one of Jon M. Chu\u2019s pre-\u201cWicked\u201d features (with ties to another new release).<\/p>\n

Here are the seven best new movies to watch on Peacock this November.<\/p>\n

\"\"Warner Bros.<\/p>\n

\u201cDunkirk\u201d<\/p>\n

Christopher Nolan\u2019s first World War II movie, \u201cDunkirk,\u201d sees the director in full form with a technically precise, temporally radical triptych set during the Dunkirk evacuation. Following different perspectives on land, sea and sky, Nolan\u2019s 10th directorial effort gives audiences a relentless view of a single WWII event, piling on the tension through strong visuals and expert craft. I don\u2019t know that you can call any Nolan film \u201cunderrated\u201d (\u201cDunkirk\u201d went on to win three Oscars out of eight nominations), but this one perhaps gets overlooked more than most from the director\u2019s modern era.<\/p>\n

\""Fast\u201cFast Five\u201d (Universal Pictures)<\/p>\n

\u201cFast Five\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cFast and Furious\u201d franchise has never been known for its consistency. After a successful first outing in 2001, the franchise limped along for a time, suffering various reboots and changes in perspective before it settled into the series it would eventually become. Lately, the films have suffered from a creative crisis, with behind-the-camera drama and beyond poor plotting taking this series from drag race to simple drag. Despite ending \u201cFast X\u201d on what was intended as a massive cliffhanger for a multi-part finale, this series has seemingly stalled out, with the final installment nowhere in sight.<\/p>\n

But for a brief, glorious moment, the \u201cFast and Furious\u201d franchise was an absolute, unironic joy. That moment started with \u201cFast Five,\u201d Justin Lin\u2019s third entry in the series and still the best \u201cF&F\u201d movie yet. \u201cFast Five\u201d establishes everything this series would be going forward (for better and for worse), dropping these diesel-fueled criminals into larger-than-life scenarios where they share more in common with superheroes than street racers. Lin steers into the skid of this franchise\u2019s absurdity, finding a perfect balance of ridiculousness and genuinely well-crafted action. It seems unlikely that this series will ever be this good again \u2014\u00a0but, in fairness, that\u2019s a decently high bar.<\/p>\n

\"girlsUniversal<\/p>\n

\u201cGirls Trip\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGirls Trip\u201d quickly became a sensation upon release in 2017, and for good reason. The hilarious comedy \u2014 directed by Malcolm D. Lee and written by Kenya Barris and Tracy Oliver with a story co-credit from Erica Rivinoja \u2014\u00a0features an incredible dynamic from its central performers Regina Hall, Tiffany Haddish, Jada Pinkett Smith and Queen Latifah. \u201cGirls Trip\u201d is a hilarious ride, perfect for a streaming watch (or rewatch) while you\u2019re spending your holiday off.<\/p>\n

\"A\u201cJurassic Park\u201d (Universal Pictures)<\/p>\n

\u201cJurassic Park\u201d<\/p>\n

Every month \u201cJurassic Park\u201d joins a streaming service is a month where it\u2019s one of the best new movies in that library. Steven Spielberg\u2019s brilliant 1993 blockbuster manages to tell both a thrilling adventure story and a compelling sci-fi fable without ever sacrificing intelligence for excitement (or vice versa). Some may call the effects dated, and they are certainly of their time, but there is not a moment in \u201cJurassic Park\u201d that doesn\u2019t still play like magic rendered on the big screen. This film is an all-timer, and one that always deserves another rewatch.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow You See Me 2\u201d<\/p>\n

This November is a good time to watch \u201cNow You See Me 2.\u201d The close-up magic crime movie has a few ties to the month\u2019s new releases. After a nearly decade-long gap, a sequel (finally titled \u201cNow You See Me: Now You Don\u2019t\u201d) hit theaters on Nov. 14. It\u2019s also connected to the much-anticipated \u201cWicked: Fr Good,\u201d as \u201cNow You See Me 2\u201d was the last movie directed by Jon M. Chu before he really made a name for himself with \u201cCrazy Rich Asians.\u201d Chu brings a nice flair to the magic sequences throughout this entry, with a playing card heist in particular being a delightful moment \u2014\u00a0and likely the franchise\u2019s most recognizable scene.<\/p>\n

While \u201ccontroversial\u201d may not be the right word, the \u201cNow You See Me\u201d duology (now, a trilogy) has definitely faced a mixed reception over time, with some critics panning them for being messy bores and others begging for more trips to the magic camp. With the franchise now being more than a decade old, there\u2019s certain to be a generational divide present here. Before you watch \u201cNow You Don\u2019t\u201d in theaters, definitely check out these first two films on Peacock to see if the magic works on you.<\/p>\n

\"Paddington\u201cPaddington\u201d (StudioCanal)<\/p>\n

\u201cPaddington\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019m probably not the first to tell you that \u201cPaddington\u201d is a delight, and a film far better than you might initially expect. Paul King brings masterful direction to this London-set story about an optimistic and endlessly kind bear, making it enjoyable to children and adults alike. King made pure joy with these first entries in this franchise, with a perfectly calibrated cast that can make you laugh out loud and melt your heart without skipping a beat.<\/p>\n

If you haven\u2019t seen it yet, you should take this opportunity to look at the adorable Paddington Bear puppet that was created for his West End stage musical. I would like to meet him and call him my friend. <\/p>\n

\""A\u201cA Thousand and One\u201d (Focus Features)<\/p>\n

\u201cA Thousand and One\u201d<\/p>\n

Teyana Taylor finds herself at the center of awards conversations this year, with her performance in \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d receiving wide acclaim. This performance is no surprise to anyone who saw \u201cA Thousand and One,\u201d a Sundance film starring Taylor that released in 2023. Written and directed by A. V. Rockwell, \u201cA Thousand and One\u201d follows a single mother who takes her son from a foster home as she struggles to keep them together against an unforgiving system. Taylor received sweeping acclaim for her performance in the film, with many viewing her lack of nomination as a notable snub during the awards season. It\u2019s nice to see Taylor again getting such praise for \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d \u2014\u00a0making it a good time to go back to \u201cA Thousand and One.\u201d<\/p>\n
