Star Trek is one of the best free movies to stream this weekend (August 15-17)
Last weekend, two new releases dominated the box office. Zach Cregger's Weapons dazzled audiences on its way to a $42 million domestic opening weekend. Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis participated in another body-swap comedy in Freakier Friday, which opened to just under $30 million. While those films are in theaters, the movies below can be watched inside your home for no cost. These free movies range from a coming-of-age comedy to a sci-fi reboot. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, and the best movies on Amazon Prime Video. Can't Hardly Wait (1998) The coming-of-age movies that take place within 24 hours are my personal favorite. At the top sit Dazed and Confused, The Breakfast Club, and American Graffiti. Somewhere below that tier sits Can't Hardly Wait, the teen comedy that predominantly takes place at a high school party. The senior class at Huntington Hillside High convenes for a graduation party. Shy kids, like Preston Meyers (Ethan Embry), want to tell their crush (Jennifer Love Hewitt) how they feel. The nerds, like William Lichter (Charlie Korsmo), hope to exact revenge on their bully (Peter Facinelli). If you're Kenny (Seth Green) and Denise (Lauren Ambrose), all that matters is escaping a locked bathroom. Can't Hardly Wait does not reinvent the wheel, but its charming cast and hilarious gags are a welcome addition to the high school genre. Stream Can't Hardly Wait on Tubi. Basic Instinct (1992) Sharon Stone is a member of the 'Femme Fatale Hall of Fame' with her performance in Basic Instinct. After the murder of a rock star, homicide detective Nick Curran (Michael Douglas) is tasked with finding the killer. The suspect is the girlfriend, Catherine Tramell (Stone), a crime novelist whose recent book mirrors her boyfriend's murder. Instead of investigating Catherine, Nick engages with her in a sexually driven affair. The affair with Catherine negatively affects his relationship with Dr. Elisabeth Garner (Jeanne Tripplehorn), who also becomes a suspect in the murder case. While I wouldn't recommend watching this movie with your family, Basic Instinct is the addictive erotic thriller that today's audiences have been begging for more of. Stream Basic Instinct on Pluto TV. Star Trek (2009) After the failures of 2002's Star Trek: Nemesis, the Star Trek franchise needed a fresh start. Enter J.J. Abrams, the architect who rebooted the sci-fi property through an alternate timeline, the Kelvin universe. The result became 2009's Star Trek. After a chance meeting with a captain, James T. Kirk (Chris Pine), the son of a fallen officer, joins Starfleet Academy. While responding to a distress signal, Kirk boards the USS Enterprise, the famous ship from the original Star Trek. After the capture of Commander Pike (Bruce Greenwood), Kirk takes it upon himself to save the galaxy from the villainous Nero (Eric Bana). But first, Kirk must patch things up with his rival, Spock (Zachary Quinto), setting the stage for their future partnership. Stream Star Trek on Pluto TV.

Charlie Sheen's Tell-All Doc Features Exes Denise Richards, Brooke Mueller — and His Former Drug Dealer
Charlie Sheen is addressing his scandalous past in a new Netflix documentary, which features appearances from some very surprising people in his life. Netflix released a first look of the doc on Wednesday, August 13, in which Sheen, 59, spoke to filmmaker Andrew Renzi about his rise to stardom — and hitting rock bottom amid addiction struggles. In the sneak peek, Sheen's exes Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller were interviewed, as was Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre and costar Jon Cryer. Sheen's brother, Ramon Estevez, was the only family member — outside of the actor's youngest daughter with Richards, Lola — to participate. Sean Penn, Heidi Fleiss and Chris Tucker were also featured in the documentary trailer before Sheen's former drug dealer, Marco, spoke about the actor "smoking seven gram rocks." The film, titled aka Charlie Sheen, will be released on September 10. It is a two-part special that highlights Sheen's childhood in Malibu, his success in the '80s and '90s, and his personal life making headlines due to drug use over the years. Charlie Sheen Through the Years: From 'Platoon' to 'Two and a Half Men' and Every Scandal in Between According to a press release, in aka Charlie Sheen "the most outrageous moments of Sheen's life are revisited with raw emotion and exceptional warmth, painting a portrait of a flawed man whose penchant for self-destruction is ultimately no match for the ferocious love and forgiveness he inspires in those closest to him." The documentary will be released one day after Sheen's memoir, The Book of Sheen, hits bookshelves. "Of all the Hollywood bad boys in history, Charlie Sheen might be the baddest of them all,' Gallery Books Senior Vice President and Publisher Jennifer Bergstrom said in a statement. 'Now nearly eight years sober, Charlie writes candidly of every detox, retox, drug deal and adventure along his challenging journey to freedom. We are so proud to share his story." Sheen reflected on his decision to write a book, adding, "My stories have been told for far too long through the eyes and pens of others. I think you'll agree, it's time to finally read these stories directly from the actual guy." After battling issues in the public eye, Sheen has been outspoken about tackling years of sobriety. Charlie Sheen and Chuck Lorre's Ups and Downs After 'Two and a Half Men' Firing, 'How to Be a Bookie' Reunion "I've mostly been raising my 14-year-old boys," he told People in December 2023 about his and Mueller's sons, Bob and Max. "Their mom has been trying to figure some stuff out on her end, so she's not in the picture too much right now." Sheen joked that his youngest kids don't care that he is an actor, adding, "It doesn't matter, whatever we're doing that might be important and connected to our job, or some high brow moment of responsibility, the kids don't care." Sheen is also dad to daughters Sami, 21, and Lola, 20, with Richards, 54, and daughter Cassandra Jade Estevez, 40, with Paula Profit. Solve the daily Crossword
