The new films out on NowTV, Amazon Prime and Netflix this weekend

It's finally the weekend (yes, really, if such a thing still exists) and it's time for some more movie marathons.

It's pretty likely you have already made a good start on, or completed the DVD collection, and picked out your favourites on one of many streaming platforms.

But with NowTV, Amazon Prime and Netflix regularly updating their offerings, we always have something new to watch.

And even if they're not new releases, we'll happily sit and watch the classics or the ones we have watched that many times we can pretty much recite them word for word.

To help you navigate the streaming services a little more easily, here's what's new this week.

Netflix
