I use PotonVPN since a while and it works like a charm.

A note though, since some years now using a VPN is not really the panacea for streaming country restricted movies, as more and more the deciding factor is the originating country of your credit card.

That's an extremely valid piece of feedback and something I'm planning to spend more time clarifying on the platform so that people know how to navigate those and similar issues. There are cases where it's not only the credit card that's a deciding factor, but sometimes even the country from which you were creating your account (e.g. Prime Video).
