It’s almost the end of February, so do yourself a favor and watch some good movies before the snow melts and the outdoors beckon.
Prime Video has a slew of under-the-radar films just waiting to be streamed, and Watch With Us has discovered the best of them.
Using Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer, we ranked the three best films for you to stream in February 2026.
The war thriller flick K-19: The Widowmaker, the rom-com I Could Never Be Your Woman and the sports comedy Goon are three great ways to spend some quality time indoors.
‘K-19: The Widowmaker’ (2002)
Rotten Tomatoes rating: 60 percent
If I told you there’s a movie directed by Oscar winner Kathryn Bigelow starring legendary action heroes Harrison Ford and Liam Neeson, you probably want to see it. And yet, almost no one knows about K-19: The Widowmaker, a 2002 action-thriller and box office flop. Critics were mixed, and the movie barely achieved a fresh rating on the Tomatometer. But it’s better than its 60 percent score, and it deserves a more appreciative audience.

Ford stars as Alexei Vostrikov, the newly appointed commanding officer of the K-19, the Soviet Union’s first nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine. He replaced Mikhail Polenin (Neeson), a well-liked captain and now second-in-command officer who cares more about his crew than he does about completing a mission at any cost. As a more strict and less sympathetic captain, Vostrikov risks his crew’s lives as they venture into the Arctic to test new weapons. How far is Vostrikov willing to go to help his country win the Cold War?
Based on a true story, K-19 is a gripping war movie where the Soviets’ main enemy isn’t the West, but themselves. The central conflict between Polenin and Vostrikov is also a battle between the old guard, which values brotherhood, and the new guard, which prioritizes loyalty to the state above all else. If you look past Ford and Neeson’s unfortunate Russian accents, you’ll enjoy K-19: The Widowmaker, which has as many interesting ideas as it does action sequences.
‘I Could Never Be Your Woman’ (2007)
Rotten Tomatoes rating: 69 percent
Rosie (Michelle Pfeiffer) is a busy TV producer of a cheesy sitcom, You Go Girl, and loving mother to 13-year-old Izzie (Saoirse Ronan). To boost her show’s sagging ratings, she hires Adam (Paul Rudd), a young actor looking for his big break. Adam is an instant hit with viewers, and he hits it off with Rosie, too. But their low-key affair is plagued by one problem: Rosie is 45, and Adam is 29. Can these two bridge their wide age gap and find lasting love?
You might not have heard of I Could Never Be Your Woman because it was dumped on home video without a lot of fanfare. That’s surprising given the movie’s cast, which also includes Tracey Ullman as Mother Nature herself and Sarah Alexander as Rosie’s no-good assistant. Pfeiffer and Rudd make for an odd yet believable couple — he’s boyishly charming, while she’s — well, she’s Michelle freakin’ Pfeiffer. The movie is all the more relevant now, with age gap discourse a frequently trending topic on social media, and this nearly two-decade-old film handles the subject with surprising sensitivity.
‘Goon’ (2011)
Rotten Tomatoes rating: 81 percent
With the success of Heated Rivalry in late 2025 and both U.S. teams winning gold at the 2026 Winter Olympics, hockey is having an unusually prolific moment in the pop culture spotlight. In other words, now is the perfect time to watch one of the best hockey movies ever made, Goon.

When good-hearted bar bouncer Doug Glatt (Seann William Scott) gets into a fight at a minor league hockey game, a coach from his hometown offers him a spot on the Orangetown Assassins team. Even though he’s a terrible skater, he accepts the offer and helps the team win several games. But to secure an all-important playoff spot, Doug will have to overcome Ross “The Boss” Rhea (Liev Schreiber), a professional hockey player stuck playing in the minor leagues. Both men want to win and will do anything to accomplish their goal — including beating the hell out of each other on and off the ice.
Much like the 1977 sports classic Slap Shot, Goon is deliberately lewd, crude and ultra-violent. It also has a lot of heart, and you can’t help but root for Doug as he strives to be the best hockey player he can be despite lacking the formal training of his peers. Schreiber is also fantastic as the film’s “villain,” who is more sympathetic than initially believed. Goon is a winning sports tale with low stakes, appealing underdog heroes and a climax that’s both satisfying and realistic.
