The good news is that you probably already have free access to the streaming service if you recently purchased an Apple gadget. Here is a list of some of the year's top motion pictures.

 |
| Beastie Boys Story (Apple TV) |
"Beastie Boys Story" tells a charming and touching story about how they did it. Spike Jonze, a long-time associate of the Beastie Boys, helmed the live event at Brooklyn's Kings Theater last year and takes over the reins in this basic recorded version gathered from various performances.
Survivor Beastie Boys members Michael "Mike D" Diamond and Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz provide a chapter-by-chapter story of their remarkable climb from dopey aspiring punk rockers to Hollywood-fueled meltdowns, and how various errors helped them arrive at new creative inspiration. Much of the film is a lighthearted nostalgia trip, which at two hours is a tall order, but "Beastie Boys Story" is also inspired with a powerful sense of purpose:
