3 classic movies just added to Prime Video with 90% or higher on Rotten Tomatoes

One of my favorite things about Prime Video is its appreciation of classic movies. While its main streaming rival, Netflix, typically focuses on new originals, with even its library additions predominantly from the 21st century, the Amazon-owned platform often celebrates cinematic history by adding films to its catalog that are old enough to approach retirement age.

I track the new additions to Prime Video every month, and I’m always on the lookout for classic movies. You know, movies that have stood the ultimate test of time, and some of them are even presented in brilliant black and white (very positive in my books). While the new additions in January 2025 aren’t as plentiful as in previous months, I’ve still managed to find a small handful of classic movies worth adding to your watchlist this week.
