Fandango At Home

See what premium titles are available to watch on Vudu this week!

John Boyega stars in Breaking as a desperate military veteran who holds up a bank, not for financial gain, but to publicize the plight faced by many other military veterans. Nicole Beharie, Selenis Leyva and Michael Kenneth Williams also star in the tense dramatic thriller.

Jon Hamm embodies the suave, clever titular character in Confess, Fletch. The comic mystery finds the inimitable Fletch accused of murder, which doesn’t keep him from investigating other crimes at the same time to prove his innocence.

Nathalie Emmanuel is the recipient of The Invitation, which looks and sounds wonderful. She’s swept away to a gorgeous countryside estate and everything appears to be grand, until the true intentions of her hosts are revealed.

Idris Elba and Tilda Swinton stars in the surprising mystery-fantasy Three Thousand Years of Longing, directed by George Miller. It revolves around a Djinn who offers a lonely scholar three wishes, but it doesn’t play out as one might expect.

Idris Elba must protect his two daughters in the savage adventure Beast. They are being stalked by a hungry, man-eating lion whose roar is enough to scare anyone witless. How will they survive?

Siblings Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer are faced with an unimaginable foe in Nope. As the operators of an isolated horse ranch in California, they must rely on themselves if they hope to survive.

Diane Keaton enlivens the comedy stylings of Mack & Rita. She portrays an older version of herself who must, it seems, learn a few more lessons before she can achieve what her heart desires.

Look! Up in the sky! It’s DC League of Super-Pets, come to save the world’s superheroes from a dastardly super-villain. Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart lead the all-star voice cast.
