May is just a hair’s breadth away, which means there’s a swath of movies to stream before they’re shuffled off of your favorite streaming service at the end of the month. Still deciding what to knock off your to-watch list this week? Don’t worry; we’ve pulled together our list of the best movies to stream by the end of April.

From neo-noir thrillers like Mulholland Drive and romantic comedies like Moonstruck to cerebral sci-fi films like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and classic action movies like Bloodsport and The Rock, there’s plenty of great entertainment to choose from.

Here are the 13 best movies you need to watch before they leave streaming at the end of April.

If martial arts movies are celebrations of bodies in motion, there are few better examples than the Jean-Claude Van Damme vehicle Bloodsport. Van Damme plays U.S. Army Captain Frank Dux, a skilled martial artist who is invited to an underground fighting tournament in Hong Kong. When he is not given permission by his superiors to attend, Dux simply goes anyway, resulting in 1) two army investigators (including Forest Whitaker) pursuing him to Hong Kong; 2) Dux falling for a journalist (Leah Ayres) investigating the tournament; and 3) Dux fighting a lot of dudes.

Purportedly based on the apocryphal accomplishments of the real Frank Dux, Bloodsport is instead best viewed as an effective display of Van Damme’s charisma, screen-fighting ability, and good looks, and for the incredible performance of all-time action baddie Bolo Yeung as the villainous Chong Li.
