HBO Max is a combination of classic HBO series, WarnerMedia movies, as well as new Original content. Everyone in the family will have something to watch with its vast selection of drama, action, kids, and fantasy shows and movies. You get all this for $10–15 per month! But read on to see if this is your next subscription. So, $10–$16 a month for new release Warner Bros. movies, all older HBO content, and new HBO Max content? Yes. Yes, please. And HBO Max recently launched their new limited ads service. You can save $6 per month by watching no more than four minutes of ads per hour. (But we think it’s worth spending the extra $6 for no interruptions.) A lot of services nowadays throw in HBO Max for free with your TV plan. You can get HBO Max for free for three months with DIRECTV STREAM and DIRECTV. If you’re on the lookout for a cable TV provider, Optimum TV, Spectrum TV, and Cox TV include a complimentary subscription to HBO Max, as well. HBO Max’s excellent on-demand library includes the following movies for winding down at night: HBO Max’s Originals include the following:
The Flight Attendant (with Kaley Cuoco and Michiel Huisman) The Gilded Age (with Christine Baranski) Euphoria (with Zendaya) Barry (with Bill Hader) The Survivor (with Ben Foster and Danny DeVito) Free Guy (with Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson) Mare of Easttown (with Kate Winslet)
Netflix is the same or more expensive (depending on which plan you choose), but it has close to 5,000 titles while HBO Max has 1,000. But we dare say that HBO Max has more well-made, cinematic content than the services that are a little bit on the cheaper side like Peacock, Paramount+ or Hulu.
