There are so many good movies on Hulu, from side-splitting comedies like Fire Island to passionate romances like Palm Springs to terrifying horror films like The Babadook. There are so many good ones, in fact, that it can be hard to wade through everything to find the cream of the crop. Never fear: We've compiled a list of the best movies on Hulu so you can find new and old favorites alike.
Release Date November 20, 2007 Director Kevin Lima Cast Amy Adams , Patrick Dempsey , James Marsden , Timothy Spall , Idina Menzel , Rachel Covey Runtime 107 Directed by Kevin Lima and written by Bill Kelly, Enchanted is a Disney live-action animated musical fantasy rom-com about an animated princess who finds herself in a live-action world.
Release Date October 11, 2013 Director Paul Greengrass Cast Tom Hanks , Barkhad Abdi , Barkhad Abdirahman , Catherine Keener , Faysal Ahmed , Mahat M. Ali , Michael Chernus , David Warshofsky Runtime 134 Minutes Directed by Paul Greengrass and starring Tom Hanks as the title character, Captain Phillips is a biographical drama that follows the story of Captain Richard Phillips, who was taken hostage by Somali pirates in 2009.
Release Date September 29, 2023 Director Gareth Edwards Cast Ralph Ineson , Allison Janney , Gemma Chan , John David Washington , Ken Watanabe Read Our Review Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 film Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood has a lot packed into its almost three-hour-long runtime. One of those features is its incredible ensemble cast, made up of Brad Pitt , Leonardo DiCaprio , Margot Robbie , Emile Hirsch , Al Pacino , Dakota Fanning , Austin Butler , and the late Luke Perry , just to name a few. This heavy-hitting cast of characters tells a reimagined story of the life and death of Sharon Tate as she related to Charles Manson in the late 1960s.
The 2016 Cannes Film Festival winner for Best Direction by Olivier Assayas, Personal Shopper tells the story of a young woman named Maureen in Paris who won't leave the city until she finds contact with her twin brother, Lewis, who died three months prior. She and her brother had a pact before he died that they would contact one another from beyond, and she is battling her grief, waiting for that message.
The film was met with fantastic reviews and grossed $10 million against its tiny budget of $2 million, which is impressive for a film that only had a limited release. What critics raved most about in the film is its deeper message, as it wasn’t just an “empty” horror riding only on jump scares. Instead, it contained a layered story that tackled grief, single parenthood, and the exhaustion that comes with both.
A shining example of ‘show, don’t tell’ filmmaking, No One Will Save You has just five words in its entire runtime, meaning that Kaitlyn Dever’s lead performance is more pivotal than ever. Luckily, she excels with a script from Brian Duffield that finds tension at every turn. Despite the aliens invading, it is still perhaps the people around her that are the most villainous, with a message of human cruelty akin to that in 28 Days Later.
Release Date March 31, 2023 Director Raine Allen-Miller Cast David Jonsson , Vivian Oparah , Poppy Allen-Quarmby , Simon Manyonda Runtime 82 minutes Read Our ReviewSet in South London and named after the real-life Rye Lane Market, Rye Lane follows David Jonsson’s Dom and Vivian Oparah’s Yas as, on one completely unassuming day, the two meet unexpectedly and begin to get to know each other.
A story split down the middle in both its style and substance, Bruiser is, in fact, based on Miles Warren’s own experience as an adolescent, making the nuanced drama all the more impactful. Incredibly relevant, Bruiser sacrifices the flashier aspects of cinema in favor of telling a genuinely heartfelt story — one that almost transcends the medium with which it is told.
A contemplative take on 21st-century humanity, The Worst Person in the World is, at its heart, a relatable tale. No matter the nuance of each moment in Julie’s life, the emotions on display, portrayed excellently by Renate Reinsve, are easily recognizable with emotions in our own lives. What looks like a simple story on the surface buries deep into the audience’s soul, using its simplicity to hold a mirror up to our own faces as we find ourselves asking the same questions that Julie does.
A powerful story that digs to the deepest depths of human experience, Flee is not simply a character piece but a valuable history lesson, too. Because of the director and subject's long friendship, the documentary feels truly personal, as if we ourselves have worked for years to earn Amin’s trust. By using beautiful animation to recreate parts of Amin’s life, the documentary is propelled to another level as this tragic tale unfolds.
Release Date February 19, 2021 Director Chloé Zhao Cast Bob Wells , Swankie , Frances McDormand , Linda May , Derek Endres , David Straitham Runtime 107 Minutes Read Our ReviewIn what feels like the role Frances McDormand was born to play, Nomadland follows the Academy Award winner as Fern, a woman who, in the midst of a community burdened by financial ruin, decides to leave society as she knows it and live life in her van as a modern-day nomad.
