The top movies and series on Amazon Prime Video in 2022

I Love America

Arrived on the platform in March 2022, the film I Love America gives Sophie Marceau the role of Lisa, a disillusioned woman in love who decides to leave her life in France to start from scratch in Los Angeles.

There she finds her best friend Luka, who runs a famous drag queen bar there.

Directed by Lisa Azuelos, this film, under its air of romantic comedy, turns out to be a little more than that.

Because Lisa is not just looking for love… A film to discover on Prime Video.

The Boys, season 3

Like the first two seasons of The Boys, the new burst of episodes that arrived on Prime Video last June is clearly not to be put in front of all eyes.

Violent, cynical and ruthless, this series continues to paint a less than rosy picture of the world of superheroes.

This third season reveals a new character, Soldier Boy, an overpowered superhero who could well prove to be an even greater threat than that represented by Homelander.

This third season, like the previous ones, has 8 episodes.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 1

Expected as the event series of September 2022 on Amazon Prime Video, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has not yet succeeded in convincing everyone.

The reason: a very slow pace and a somewhat confusing plot.

However, fabulous settings, endearing characters and a fanfare finale still allowed the series to make an impression on many minds.

While waiting for the second season which will not arrive before 2024, you can still enjoy the first 8 episodes now.

Peripherals, The Worlds of Flynne, season 1

In the near future, technology has begun to profoundly transform society.

Flynne Fisher is a young woman whose existence is far from idyllic: she has to take care of her family, which pushes her to set aside a bright future.

The day when one of his friends offers him to try a new very advanced virtual reality helmet, Flynne discovers a very realistic alternative universe which allows him to escape his daily life.

But when she witnesses a murder in this simulation, everything changes... The first season, released in October, has 8 episodes.

Hawaii

Hawa is one of the last original French films offered by Amazon Prime Video at the end of the year.

Directed by Maimouna Doucouré, this feature film tells the story of the young Hawa who, at 15, made it her mission to be adopted by Michelle Obama, who was passing through Paris for a few days.

Her astonishing journey will notably put her on the path of astronaut Thomas Pesquet, but also on that of the singer Yseult.

An original and very touching road trip, carried by a surprising cast on many points.
