Everything new on Max in May 2025

Max is one of my favorite streaming services to dive through at the beginning of each month simply because its monthly schedules pack more new releases and hidden cinema gems than the rest of our best streaming services.

Last month, Max introduced new A24 erotic drama Babygirl (2024) to its library of best Max movies, and once again the platform is wearing its love for A24 dramas on its sleeve with the addition of Brady Corbet’s Oscar-winning drama The Brutalist (2024) – a movie that had me locked in despite it’s 3.5 hour time-run.
