One of 2023's most shocking movies has just been added to Prime Video but if you need more here's our pick for tonight. The Magnificent Seven - ITV1 - 10:15pm This remake of the 1960 Western classic of the same name (which itself was a remake of Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai) focuses on seven gunmen (including Denzel Washington, Chris Pratt and Ethan Hawke) from a variety of backgrounds who are brought together by a vengeful young widow (Haley Bennett). This is to protect her town from the private army of a destructive industrialist (Peter Sarsgaard). Directed by Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, The Equalizer trilogy) and co-written by Nic Pizzolatto (the creator of True Detective), this version of The Magnificent Seven landed in cinemas in 2016 to solid reviews. The general consensus was that though the movie did not reach the lofty heights of its predecessors, it is still an entertaining Western in its own right. 2016's The Magnificent Seven is also available to rent on Apple TV+ and the Sky Store.
