Jason Statham as Adam Clay in The Beekeeper (2024)
One annoying hassle of modern life is juggling multiple streaming services at a given time. One platform is good at one thing, another platform is good at another, and you don’t want to miss out on a good movie because you’re paying an arm and a leg for a service it’s not on.
Well, if you plan on watching any action movies in the foreseeable future, you’re in luck: Free streaming service Tubi is going to have a bunch of action movies in February. Even though the big streaming services all have ad-supported tiers now, the dedicated ad-supported streaming services often have slimmer — or more questionable — offerings. Licensing the rights to good, famous movies is often expensive, or they’re tied up in exclusivity deals . That generally means that the free streamers are more likely to have weirder movies that are less popular. Good luck telling that to Tubi, though, because it’s about to get The Beekeeper, White House Down, and a bunch of other good action flicks. What Are the Good Action Movies Coming to Tubi in February? The Beekeeper, directed by Suicide Squad’s David Ayer and starring Jason Statham, was a genuinely surprising smash-hit and one of the — pun intended — buzziest action movies of 2024. It has a respectable 71 percent on Rotten Tomatoes from critics and a killer 92 percent rating from fans. That’s not just good for an action movie on a free streamer, that’s good for any movie on any kind of streamer. Plus, a sequel is on the way, and you've gotta be ready for that. White House Down, from disaster master Roland Emmerich, had the unique disadvantage of coming out too shortly after Gerard Butler’s franchise-launcher Olympus Has Fallen in 2013 and, unfortunately, has pretty much the exact same premise. Unlike Olympus, though, White House Down is a ton of fun and deserved to be the bigger hit. It also has a weirdly stacked cast: Channing Tatum plays a John McClane-type who just happens to be in the White House when bad guys attack, Jamie Foxx plays the president, Maggie Gyllenhaal is a Secret Service agent, and the great Richard Jenkins is the Speaker of the House . Speaking of John McClane, Tubi is also getting both Die Hard and Live Free or Die Hard if you want to experience the whiplash of going from one movie to the other. And speaking of Roland Emmerich, Tubi is getting his World War II movie Midway. Speaking of Jason Statham, how about the fun remake of The Italian Job with him and Mark Wahlberg? Looking for more of a Liam Neeson flavor? Why don’t you try The Commuter, starring Neeson, Florence Pugh, Jonathan Banks, and The Conjuring duo Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson? After that, settle in for Taken, Taken 2, and Taken 3. Not all of them are good, but you could go in as a total newcomer to the action genre and come away from that trilogy with a solid education.

Very few of these would likely end up on a list of the best action movies ever, but you can do a lot worse for a lot more money. It’s a good reminder that you’re not always paying for quality on the bigger, more well-stocked streaming services.
