7 Feel-Good Movies on Prime Video to Stream Right Now

“Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping”

If you miss seeing Andy Samberg on “SNL,” watching this will probably only make the feeling more intense. If you’ve never seen it, you might realize exactly how much you do miss him.

“Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” is more charming than it has any right to be, following a fictional group of singers who found fame, split, and then reunite when they realize they’re significantly stronger together. It’s funny and sweet, and worth an evening.

“A Cinderella Story”

Remember when dialogue used to literally be Hilary Duff’s voiceover saying “Laugh out loud” as she texted “LOL” to Chad Michael Murray? What a time it was.

This is the first in the “Cinderella Story” universe, and you might be surprised to remember who all is in it — namely, Jennifer Coolidge and Regina King. It’s a real sweet, nostalgic rom-com that offers hope about love, family, and halloween costumes. It should lift your spirits for a bit.

“The Naked Gun” (2025)

We’ll always recommend the original “Naked Gun” films, but in this particular instance, we’re talking about the Liam Neeson-starring “Naked Gun” that came out last year. It’s goofy and delightful, just like its predecessors, and it features Neeson having a fight scene backed by “Fergalicious.” Yes, seriously.

But, it also offers a real, biting commentary on things that will still make you laugh. It’s also a tight 85 minutes, as an added bonus.

“Upgraded”

Fair warning, this movie might give you unrealistic expectations about the kind of people you might meet at an airport, but that’s OK.

“Upgraded” released in 2024, and stars Camila Mendes as an intern hoping to make a name for herself in the art world. It’s a sweet rom-com, and features Marisa Tomei with an accent you’ll never see coming. “Upgraded” might give you some inspiration if your new year’s resolution was career-related.

“The Birdcage”

If you’re looking for a film that’s a touch older than those above, I’d recommend this 90s classic. “The Birdcage” has an unreasonably stacked cast including Robin Williams, Nathan Lane, Christine Baranski, Gene Hackman, Calista Flockhart and more, and every single one of them is as delightful as you would expect.

It’s hard not to have a good time with a movie that ends in a big group musical number, honestly.

“The Breakfast Club”

Speaking of classics, you can also find “The Breakfast Club” on Prime Video right now. The cast reunited in full last year — the first time since its release 40 years earlier — and proved just how much love there still is from that movie, and that there are some lessons to be learned from it.

“Wicked”

“Wicked: For Good” isn’t available to stream for free just yet, but the first part of the epic musical is. Admittedly, there are some heavy themes in this story, so we may be stretching the limits of “feel-good” just a little bit here, but there’s no denying that the soundtrack will do the trick. From “The Wizard and I” to “Defying Gravity,” this movie will definitely make your night feel more magical.
