Weekend viewing

If you’re in the mood to sit back and chillax this weekend, then do so by watching one, or even all three, of our must-see movies.

Start with a thriller mystery about an American tourist who gets drawn into a political conspiracy after he’s involved in a tragic car crash in Greece. Then watch a biographical drama about an infamous gangster who, after 10 years in prison, starts suffering from dementia and is haunted by his violent past. Or, if you’re a superhero fanatic, catch an action-packed spy thriller about an Avenger who becomes separated from the rest of her crime-fighting team in the wake of a significant battle.

While vacationing in Greece, American tourist Beckett becomes the target of a manhunt after a devastating accident. Forced to run for his life and desperate to get across the country to the American embassy to clear his name, tensions escalate as the authorities close in, political unrest mounts, and Beckett falls even deeper into a dangerous web of conspiracy. Watch Beckett now on Netflix.

Once a ruthless businessman and bootlegger who ruled Chicago with an iron fist, Alfonse Capone was the most infamous and feared gangster of American lore. At the age of 47, following nearly a decade of imprisonment, dementia rots Alfonse’s mind and his past becomes present. Harrowing memories of his violent and brutal origins melt into his waking life. As he spends his final year surrounded by family with the FBI lying in wait, this ailing patriarch struggles to place the memory of the location of millions of dollars he hid away on his property. Catch Capone on Showmax.

Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, confronts the darker parts of her ledger when a dangerous conspiracy with ties to her past arises. Pursued by a force that will stop at nothing to bring her down, Natasha must deal with her history as a spy, and the broken relationships left in her wake long before she became an Avenger. Black Widow is now showing at a cinema near you.
