Far from eternal stereotypes, romance and sports often go hand in hand in fiction. In the cinema, as in the TV series, it is not uncommon to see these two components, which can conflict with each other in several plots.
When Perfect Addiction hits Prime Video on March 24th, why not check out the sensual and sporty flicks packed full of platformers?
Perfect attitude
Sienna Lane (Kiana Madeira of After and Fear Street) is a boxing coach. She makes perfect love with Jax (Mate Noska of Star), whom she trains regularly. Although everything seems perfect, she discovers that he is cheating on her with his own sister.
Far from feeling sorry for herself, she decides to get revenge in her own way: training Jax’s rival (Ross Butler of 13 Reasons Why and Shazam) to dethrone him in the ring.
Adapted from author Claudia Tan’s literary series, Perfect Addiction is available on Prime Video from March 24. A very warm exclusive signed by Castille Landon (next), allowing you to open this selection ball in style.
rocky
Let’s stay in boxing with the unspeakable Rocky. If most fans of the cult saga admire its legendary main character, played by Sylvester Stallone, others also appreciate the sentimental touch that inhabits these films. Because the ruthless boxer has his heart under all his muscles, and he beats Adrian (Talia Shire).
For Rocky fans or those who want to discover the films (it’s not too late!), the full version is available on Prime Video, as well as the first two Creed opus.
ice
Young skater Nadia (Aglaya Tarasova) will become a great champion. But during the gala, he gets hurt and all his plans fall apart. Desperate and ready for a career, he meets Sasha (Alexander Petrov), a young hockey champion who pushes him to fight and encourages him to pursue his dream.
A true encourager of self-transcendence, Ice manages to effortlessly break the ice between her characters and create a climate of warm and comforting trust.
One last dance
If Patrick Swayze as a charismatic and passionate dancer in the midst of romance evokes the best romantic comedy for you, then you’ll love One Last Stand!
When the brilliant artistic director of the famous company Dance Motive dies, three former stars of the group decide to stage a ballet that was created for them years ago, but which they have never performed. This show is their last chance to return to the stage.

If the outline of One Last Stand brings it close to Dirty Dancing, the comparison stops there. Nevertheless, the film is a good substitute for fans of the works of Emile Ardolino who want to discover new horizons.
These movies are available on Prime Video.
