As an Amazon Prime Video subscriber, you know that the streaming service cleans up its catalogue every now and then. This also means that some interesting titles will be removed from the subscription during the next few days. We’ll tell you which ones.
Who hasn’t experienced it: You put a promising title on your own watchlist and then weeks later find yourself in the unfortunate situation that this film has disappeared from the subscription of the respective streaming service. To make sure this doesn’t happen to you, we want to draw your attention to the fact that Amazon Prime Video is once again cleaning up its own catalogue.
In the process, some pretty interesting films have to go, which will probably no longer appear in the Prime Video programme without a surcharge in the near future. These include an erotic thriller with Demi Moore, a sci-fi horror thriller with Johnny Depp and “Arac Attack”, in which giant spiders hunt for human flesh. We’re also now pointing out the films you’d better hurry up and work off your Prime Video watchlist now…

“Striptease”: If you have a soft spot for the erotic cinema of the 1990s, you can’t miss “Striptease”. The story about former FBI agent Erin Grant (Demi Moore), who decides to drop her clothes in a strip club due to money worries, is a real curiosity. Not only was Moore able to collect a record fee of 12.5 million US dollars (and was then supposed to strip completely naked), but we also get to admire a Burt Reynolds rubbed from head to toe with Vaseline. If that’s nothing…
ONLY UNTIL 19 JULY ON AMAZON PRIME VIDEO
“Mary & Max”: With “Mary & Max” Adam Elliot has succeeded in making one of the most beautiful animated films of all time. The 4.5-star FILMSTARTS review accordingly says: “Heartfelt, sad, funny – Adam Elliot masterfully plays the keyboard of sensations in his stop-motion tragicomedy and takes us into a world of tongue-in-cheek ideas, black-humoured commentaries and oddly lovable characters. “
“Miracle”: The adaptation of the novel of the same name by R. J. Palacio is touching feel-good cinema from Hollywood, where the whole family gets its money’s worth. Compared to Jacob Tremblay, who delivers another outstanding performance after “Raum”, even seasoned actors like Owen Wilson, Julia Roberts and Mandy Patinkin lose out. But that doesn’t matter, because “Miracle” goes to the heart either way (3.5 out of 5 stars).
