Amazon Prime Video is slowly cultivating an entirely new genre of algorithm-friendly, plot-light, and action-heavy movies that exist quietly on homescreens for viewers browsing for something fun. Usually, they’re unremarkable, playing on the same few tropes and battling-for-justice themes, maybe with a handful of MCU-style quips to keep things moving. In 2025 alone, the streamer has released The Gardener, Stolen, and G20, all action movies that came and went without much fanfare. Like all good buddy action flicks, the two are about equally skilled, but clash against each other’s philosophies. Heads of State is now streaming on Prime Video.
