Looking for tips on what to watch on Prime Video this weekend? You’re in the right place, because like every Monday we present our streaming recommendations.
Let’s say right away that as a weekly novelty there is “only” one film, the new work by Guy Ritchie entitled The Ministry of Dirty War. For the rest, if you have already finished The Boys and Those About to Die, we recommend only titles that are expiring. And among many films, be careful because there is also the legendary series Dawson’s Creek, which in the next few weeks will be deleted from the catalog. The choice is yours and happy viewing!
The Ministry of Dirty War (Exclusive film – genre action/comedy) – release date July 25
Based on recently declassified British War Department documents and inspired by true events, The Ministry of Dirty War is an action comedy about the first special forces organization in history, formed during World War II by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and a small group of officers, including the writer Ian Fleming. The top-secret combat unit, composed of a motley crew of scoundrels and mavericks, sets out on a daring mission against the Nazis, using highly unconventional and decidedly “dirty” fighting techniques. Their reckless approach to warfare changed the course of history, laying the foundation for the British Special Air Service and modern covert missions.
