2024’s critically-acclaimed movie “X” has been added to Amazon Prime Video, a testament to its exceptional quality. With a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a Best Picture nomination at the 97th Academy Awards, it was also a contender for Best Motion Picture – Drama at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards. Despite not winning any of these accolades, its recognition in these prestigious ceremonies solidifies its status as one of the top films of 2024.
The film under discussion, which some might not yet realize, is “The Nickel Boys” directed by RaMell Ross. This is an American historical drama adapted from Colson Whitehead’s 2019 novel of the same name. With a production budget of $23.2 million, it only earned $3.2 million at the box office. Given that Amazon MGM Studios gave it a limited theatrical release, this isn’t too unexpected because this film wasn’t primarily aimed at big box office returns.
The summary for the film on Prime Video states, “Nickel Boys narrates the story of two African-American teenagers under the care of a juvenile reformatory.” Their powerful bond fosters change and instills optimism.
Generally, you can rent Nickel Boys on Prime Video for $5.99 or own it for $19.99. However, if you have an Amazon Prime membership, you can watch it for free. And if you don’t have a subscription yet, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial to enjoy Nickel Boys and other benefits.
Viewers choosing to stream “The Nickel Boys” on Prime Video should be aware that its running time is approximately 140 minutes, or two hours and twenty minutes. At this moment, only Prime Video and Apple TV+ are offering the movie for streaming. While Apple TV+ is less expensive as a subscription service, it’s important to note that anyone with an existing Amazon Prime membership already has access to Prime Video, making it more convenient, despite its higher cost compared to Apple TV+.
If you’re planning to watch the films nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, be aware that they are likely to carry a PG-13 rating. This means they contain some mature content such as profanity, violence, depictions of smoking, and racial insensitivity.
