Wondering what to watch this weekend? We’ve got you covered.

May 2025 came loaded with unforgettable stories, from steamy thrillers and royal romances to hilarious chaos and gritty detective dramas. Whether you're chilling at home with a bowl of popcorn or scrolling through Netflix for the hundredth time, these four new releases will make your weekend anything but boring.

Here are the titles everyone’s talking about, and trust us, you don’t want to miss a single one.

Heart Eyes

Where to Watch: Netflix
Genre: Romantic Thriller | Dark Comedy | Crime

You ever fall for someone and feel like you’re in a movie? Heart Eyes takes that literally, but with a twist sharp enough to cut through all your expectations.

Ally (Olivia Holt) and Jay (Mason Gooding) are just coworkers trying to fake a romance for a Valentine’s Day campaign... until a serial killer starts hunting down couples. Mistaken as lovers, they’re now in a deadly game of love and survival.

This one blends flirty tension with spine-tingling suspense. It's romance, but the stakes are deadly. The killer’s watching, and so are we.

If you like You, Gone Girl, or The Perfect Date with a side of danger, Heart Eyes should be at the top of your queue.

Gangers

Where to Watch: Amazon Prime Video
Genre: Tamil Action Comedy | Crime Caper | Buddy Flick

If you're looking to unwind, laugh out loud, and maybe even quote a few ridiculous lines at Sunday lunch, Gangers is that movie.

Set in a chaotic small town, this Indian action-comedy is packed with ridiculous heists, undercover flops, and enough street-level madness to keep your popcorn busy. Sundar C is smooth. Vadivelu? Hilarious, as always.

This is the kind of film you watch with your cousins, rewinding scenes because you missed the dialogue from laughing too hard. Zero stress. Full vibes.

The Royals

Where to Watch: Netflix
Genre: Hindi Rom-Com Drama | Palace Politics | Enemies-to-Lovers

Imagine if Bridgerton spent a week in Jaipur and fell in love with a B&B owner. That’s The Royals.

Aviraaj Singh is a young prince with a broke palace and no ambition. Sophia Shekhar is a savvy businesswoman who wants to revive the palace and maybe, just maybe, his sense of purpose. What starts as business quickly turns into banter, spark, and something royally complicated.

Beautifully shot in real Indian palaces, this film is rich with tradition, humour, and a bit of nostalgia (yes, they remixed “Tu Tu Hai Wahi”).

Is it deep? Not always. But is it delightful? Absolutely. It’s for those who love family drama with soft kisses and grand staircases.

Another Simple Favour

Where to Watch: Amazon Prime Video
Genre: Dark Comedy | Mystery | Glam Thriller

Back with secrets, scandal, and a wardrobe to die for, Another Simple Favour reunites Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick in a follow-up that’s sassier, twistier, and just as fabulous as the first.

Stephanie’s back to vlogging. Emily’s back from the “dead.” And of course, a European wedding turns into a murder mystery cocktail shaken with betrayal, fashion, and revenge.

This sequel leans into the chaos—think rich people behaving badly, double-crosses, and more martinis than morals.

If you're a fan of Big Little Lies, White Lotus, or fashion-filled thrillers with serious bite, this one's your guilty pleasure come true.
