Amazon Prime Video UK Feature by Chris Olson
As we move into the shortest month of the year, but the best because it has my birthday in, the landscape of digital streaming continues to evolve at a breakneck pace.
For those of us navigating the vast ocean of content from a British perspective, Amazon Prime Video has increasingly become a destination for eclectic, high-calibre storytelling, as well as a LOT of duds.
The slate of new movies on Amazon Prime Video in the UK for February 2026 is a fascinating cross-section of genres, ranging from high-concept romantic comedies and gritty historical action to intimate documentary portraits of cultural icons.
At UK Film Review, we are often asked about the "theatricality" of streaming releases. While the silver screen will always hold a sacred place in our hearts, the quality of home-viewing options this February suggests that the line between "cinema" and "streaming" is now thinner than a film strip. Here is a look at what we are anticipating on the platform this month.
Relationship Goals
Amazon Prime Video UK Release Date: 4 February, 2026
Kicking off the month on the 4th of February is Relationship Goals, a film that seems poised to reinvigorate the professional-rivalry-turned-romance subgenre. Centred on the high-stakes world of New York morning television, the narrative follows Leah Caldwell, portrayed by Kelly Rowland. Leah is a woman on the precipice of history, aiming to become the first woman to head a top-tier morning show. However, the proverbial spanner in the works arrives in the form of her ex-partner, Jarrett Roy, played by Clifford “Method Man” Smith.
The premise carries a contemporary edge, involving a New York Times bestselling self-help book that lends the film its title. While the "war of the exes" is a well-worn trope, the casting here is particularly inspired. Rowland has consistently proven herself a charismatic screen presence, and Method Man’s transition into a reliable dramatic and comedic actor has been one of the more interesting career arcs of the last decade.
From a critical standpoint, I am interested to see how the film balances the "glass ceiling" professional stakes with the emotional vulnerability of the characters. If the script can bypass the usual clichés of the rom-com and tap into the genuine friction of two ambitious people competing for the same legacy, it could be a standout hit for the Valentine's month.
Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision
Amazon Prime Video UK Release Date: 6 February, 2026
On the 6th of February, the tone shifts significantly with the release of Finding Harmony: A King’s Vision. This #documentary explores His Majesty The King’s lifelong dedication to environmentalism and the philosophy of Harmony. In a time where the climate crisis is the defining dialogue of our age, a deep dive into the King’s Foundation and its practical applications feels timely and necessary.
What elevates this project for me, even before viewing, is the involvement of Academy Award-winner Kate Winslet as narrator. Winslet’s voice carries a gravity and sincerity that suits the subject matter perfectly. The documentary promises to be a visual journey through the work of the Foundation, urging a sustainable future.
For a UK audience, the monarchy’s relationship with the land is a subject of historical and modern importance. We will be looking to see if the film functions as a purely hagiographic piece or if it offers a rigorous, educational look at the specific ecological philosophies being championed. Regardless, the cinematic potential of the British landscape, often a hallmark of such documentaries, should make this a visually arresting experience.
The Bluff
Amazon Prime Video UK Release Date: 25 February, 2026
Later in the month, on the 25th of February, we have what looks to be the month's biggest "event" film: The Bluff. Starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas, this film takes us into the treacherous world of 19th-century piracy, but with a grounded, character-driven focus. Chopra Jonas plays Ercell “Bloody Mary” Bodden, an ex-pirate whose attempt at a peaceful life is shattered when her past, in the form of a vengeful former captain, catches up with her.
The buzz surrounding this film suggests a "non-stop thrill ride," blending historical context with the visceral choreography of modern action cinema. As a critic, I am always intrigued when an actor known for glamour takes on a fiercely physical, transformative role. The description of "bloody brawls" and "tactical traps" suggests a level of grit that might distance it from the more fantastical pirate films we have seen in the past.
If director Frank E. Flowers can successfully marry the emotional weight of a mother protecting her family with the high-octane requirements of the action genre, The Bluff could be one of the most talked-about films of the quarter. It represents the kind of mid-budget, high-concept action cinema that often thrives on Prime Video.
Man on the Run
Amazon Prime Video UK Release Date: 27 February, 2026
Finally, on the 27th of February, we are treated to Man on the Run, a documentary that focuses on arguably the most pivotal period in the life of Sir Paul McCartney. Directed by the immensely talented Morgan Neville—the man behind the brilliant 20 Feet from Stardom—the film tracks the fallout of The Beatles’ breakup and the subsequent rise of Wings.
For any music lover, the post-Beatles era is a fascinating study of identity. The film promises unprecedented access to archival materials and unseen footage, focusing on the partnership between Paul and Linda McCartney. After the monumental success of Peter Jackson’s Get Back, there is clearly a hunger for high-quality, intimate footage of these musical icons.
What I am most excited about is the "uniquely vulnerable lens" mentioned in the production notes. McCartney is often seen as the consummate professional, the upbeat showman. To see the "man on the run," facing the challenges of defining a new decade while navigating the scars of the world's most famous band splitting up, should be deeply moving. Neville is a filmmaker who understands the soul of an artist, and I expect this to be a highlight of the 2026 documentary calendar.
February 2026 on Amazon Prime Video UK feels like a curated journey. We move from the slick, urban ambition of Relationship Goals to the pastoral and philosophical concerns of Finding Harmony. We then transition into the raw, historical violence of The Bluff before ending on a high note of cultural reflection with Man on the Run.
For us at UK Film Review, these titles represent the diversity of modern streaming. Whether it is the star power of Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Kelly Rowland or the historical weight of Paul McCartney and King Charles III, there is a clear attempt to provide "prestige" content that caters to a wide variety of tastes.
I haven’t seen these films yet, but my calendar is marked. The 19th-century Caribbean, the recording studios of the 1970s, and the boardrooms of modern New York all await. It’s shaping up to be an excellent month for cinema in the comfort of our own homes. We will, of course, provide the latest movie reviews as these titles land, but for now, the anticipation is more than enough to keep the winter chill at bay.
