Most popular movies on Max this week
Thanks to streaming, movie lovers no longer have to rely on DVDs and digital rentals to catch the latest film on their watch list. Instead, you can enjoy a deep catalog of films included with your subscriptions to platforms like Max.
The streaming provider often features movies that have connections to popular movies in theaters right now. For example, both the 1984 and 2021 "Dune" films were available on the streamer ahead of "Dune: Part Two's" highly anticipated release in March 2024. Likewise, the "Mad Max" movies were available ahead of the "Mad Max: Fury Road" prequel "Furiosa" debuting in theaters in May 2024.
While Max's catalog changes month to month, you can also enjoy collections ranging from Turner Classic Movies to Studio Ghibli depending on your interests.
