Luckily, you can treat yourself to a perfect movie night at home thanks to the extensive options available on DIRECTV. Plus, with a wide selection of films available in 4K, you’ll be enjoying a better viewing experience than most of the local multiplexes.
No need to waste away the hours scrolling through the staggering selection. Check out some ideas below inspired by the films released this month in theaters.
If you’re looking for an epic adventure paying homage to classic video games …
Get ready, Player One, because you’re about to step inside the neon-tinged world of TRON: Legacy. The follow-up to the beloved ‘80s classic features a returning Jeff Bridges and an upgraded light cycle race that’ll have anyone fully geeking out.
For a more family-friendly pick, queue up Wreck-It Ralph. In addition to satirizing a slew of video game genres, this animated film features gamer cameos from characters like Q*bert, Doctor Eggman, Bowser and Zangief from Street Fighter.
If you’re in the mood to see Bruce Willis dish out justice …
Clear your schedule for a Die Hard marathon. Die Hard, Die Hard 2, Die Hard With A Vengeance, Live Free or Die Hard and A Good Day to Die Hard do not require chronological viewing but you should do it anyway. Yippee ki yay.
If you’re looking to see the world saved from aliens …
Whether they’re coming from the sky or from below the sea, one thing’s for sure: aliens are coming eventually. There’s no need to panic. Instead, flip on Independence Day and see how the United States leads the charge to save the planet from extraterrestrial invaders. No fancy metal suits needed.
If you’re looking for a female-led action flick …
Few do action sequences better than the original Lara Croft played by Angelina Jolie. Though she’s moved more behind the camera these days, you can see her in all her former butt-kicking glory in Wanted alongside James McAvoy.
If you’re looking for a high school comedy with heart …
Relive those awkward high school years with Easy A, a film that belongs in the annals of great coming-of-age comedies like Clueless and Mean Girls. See a young Emma Stone help her classmates realize how important it is to be true to yourself.
If you’re looking for a spy thriller with a bombshell lead …
You’ll be seeing red as Charlize Theron fights her way through double agents in the Cold War action piece Atomic Blonde.
If you’re looking to laugh at adults behaving badly …
It’s tough to top the gang of gringos in The Hangover films. From Vegas to Bangkok to Tijuana, the Wolfpack have forgotten more wild times than most of us will ever remember.
If you’re looking for a suspenseful revenge drama …
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, but it doesn’t get more acrimonious than the psychological warfare deployed in Gone Girl.
If you’re looking for kids saving a fantasy world …
Follow Harry, Hermione, Ron and the rest of the Hogwarts crew as they battle He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Bring a little magic into your life by visiting the wizarding world of Harry Potter this month in the complete series of films available on DIRECTV.
