The adventure movie that still slaps.

Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz lead this pulp-action gem as a roguish soldier and a brainy librarian who accidentally awaken an ancient curse. Set in 1920s Egypt and dripping in charm, The Mummy has it all—cursed tombs, sandstorms, undead priests, and one-liners that live rent-free in every millennial’s brain. Directed by Stephen Sommers and backed by Jerry Goldsmith’s sweeping score, it’s Indiana Jones with a monster twist.

2. The Mummy Returns (2001)

More mummies. More mayhem. More Rock.

Rick and Evelyn are back—married, with a precocious kid, and somehow still chasing ancient artifacts that summon chaos. This time it’s the Scorpion King’s army, an ominous bracelet, and a whole lot of CGI sand. Dwayne Johnson makes his film debut (as a half-scorpion, no less), and the action hits fast. It’s bigger, louder, and somehow even more fun than the first.

3. Kung Fu Panda 4 (2024)

Po’s ready to pass the torch… maybe.

Jack Black returns as Po, the dumpling-loving Dragon Warrior now tasked with training his own successor. But when a shapeshifting villain called the Chameleon starts resurrecting old enemies, retirement has to wait. With Viola Davis, Awkwafina, and Ke Huy Quan joining the voice cast, this fourth round lands the emotional punches and the roundhouse kicks. The Last Wish vibes with kung fu flair.

4. Miss Congeniality (2000)

She’s beauty, she’s grace… she’s packing a gun.

Sandra Bullock shines as Gracie Hart, an FBI agent turned undercover pageant queen on a mission to stop a bomber. Between Michael Caine’s sass, William Shatner’s sparkle, and some of the most quotable lines in rom-com history, this one’s as funny and fizzy as ever. It’s Legally Blonde meets The Heat—with hairspray.

5. Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous (2005)

Vegas, sequins, and Sandra Bullock in full diva mode.

Now the public face of the FBI, Gracie’s back in the spotlight when two of her pageant pals get kidnapped. She teams up with a no-nonsense partner (Regina King, chewing every scene) and heads to Las Vegas in full undercover glam. It’s silly, chaotic, and doesn’t care—exactly what you want in a sequel called Armed and Fabulous.

6. Django Unchained (2012)

Tarantino’s blood-soaked Western revenge ride.

Jamie Foxx stars as Django, a freed slave turned bounty hunter on a mission to rescue his wife from a brutal plantation owner (Leonardo DiCaprio, unhinged). With Christoph Waltz, Kerry Washington, and Samuel L. Jackson rounding out the cast, the film mixes grindhouse style with real-world rage. Won Oscars for Waltz and Tarantino’s script—and yes, it still goes hard.

7. 21 Jump Street (2012)

High school’s hard. Going back as a cop? Even worse.

Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill play undercover officers who infiltrate a high school drug ring while reliving their teenage trauma. It’s self-aware, stupidly smart, and genuinely hilarious—especially when Ice Cube shows up as their yelling captain. With cameos, chaos, and way more heart than you’d expect, it’s a reboot that actually works.

8. Terrifier 3 (2024)

Art the Clown’s back… for Christmas.

You survived Halloween? Cute. Now try surviving Christmas with a silent, grinning clown who murders people like he’s doing performance art. Following the cult success of Terrifier 2, this third chapter finds siblings Sienna and Jonathan trying to rebuild their lives—until Art returns to spread festive carnage. It’s gory, gross, and gleefully demented.

9. Bad Boys (1995)

Whatcha gonna do when Smith and Lawrence come for you?

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence kick off the franchise as mismatched Miami cops chasing stolen drugs and swapping identities to protect a witness. It’s Michael Bay’s directorial debut—so yeah, there are explosions, slow-motion gunfights, and bass drops galore. The banter still hits, and the buddy-cop blueprint hasn’t aged a day.

10. Easter Sunday (2022)

Big laughs. Bigger family.

Stand-up comic Jo Koy headlines this heartfelt comedy as a struggling actor who returns home for a chaotic Filipino-American Easter celebration. There’s food, fights, karaoke, and Tiffany Haddish. Directed by Jay Chandrasekhar (Super Troopers), the film balances sitcom-style hijinks with genuine cultural love. It’s My Big Fat Filipino Easter, basically—and it’s got heart.

And That’s a Wrap

From mummy curses to pageant catfights to clowns who love Christmas a little too much, Peacock’s lineup this week is pure chaos—and that’s why it works. Whether you’re in the mood for high-stakes treasure hunts (The Mummy), raunchy action (Bad Boys, 21 Jump Street), or heart with a side of lumpia (Easter Sunday), there’s something here for every flavor of movie night.

So grab your blanket, hit play, and let Sandra Bullock or Art the Clown take the wheel. You’ve earned it.
