Amazon Prime Video Top 10 Shows and Movies: New Releases and Most Popular Today, January 19

Vengeance is coming for Jack Ryan. B.J. Novak, once and forever Ryan from The Office, wrote, directed, and starred in Vengeance, a dark comedy film about a podcaster (Novak) who heads to Texas to investigate the murder of a woman he once hooked up with. It just came to Amazon Prime Video and sits at No. 7 on Prime Video's Top 10 Shows and Movies list on Thursday, Jan. 19. It's the only new entry on the charts, so Jack Ryan, Hunters, The Rig, Jurassic World Dominion, and Reacher still make up the top 5.
