This sweet rom-com movie, which is set in the London neighborhoods of Peckham and Brixton, has a tried-and-true plotline: two people who are still hurting from horrible breakups meet by chance, and you know the rest. However, director Raine Allen Miller gives it a brilliant, alluring presentation.

66. Bruiser

Miles Warren, a first-time feature film director, directs this family drama about a 14-year-old (Jalyn Hall) who is torn between his father (Shamier Anderson) and an enigmatic vagabond (Trevante Rhodes) with the assurance of a seasoned director. It’s a tale about becoming a parent, growing up, and standing up for yourself. It’s also among the best things that Disney’s Onyx Collective, a company that specializes in Black storytelling, has ever created. 

65. Fire of Love

• Director: Sara Dosa
• Stars: Maurice Krafft, Katia Krafft
• Genre: Documentary
• Rating: NR
• Metacritic score: 83

This amazing movie received an Academy Award nomination for Best Documentary this year, and for good cause. In Fire of Love, Maurice and Katia Krafft, two vivacious French volcanologists who defied stuffy scientific conventions from the 1970s through the early 1990s, are introduced to the audience. With a chic collage of the Kraffts’ extensive film archive, multimedia animations, cool music, and captivating editing, director Sara Dosa also breaks new ground.

However, the intriguing love triangle between Maurice and Katia—who were married—and the erupting volcanoes that attracted them are what elevate Fire of Love above the sum of its parts. In one magnificent work, a nature documentary, a portrait of a couple who defied all odds to fall in love, and an art film are combined.

64. Riotsville

 

• Director: Sarah Pettengill
• Stars: Charlene Modeste
• Genre: Documentary
• Rating: NR
• Metacritic score: 83

In Riotsville, USA, history keeps repeating itself, or perhaps it just never does. The social justice movement of the late 1960s is examined in this well-regarded 2022 documentary, which also explores how America’s police forces became more militarized as a result.

It focuses on the Army’s creation of mock towns that were used to teach the military and police how to ruthlessly put down protests. Director Sarah Pettengill tells a story with clear links to the present using historical video and incisive voiceover.

63. Stars at Noon

• Director: Claire Denis
• Stars: Margaret Qualley, Joe Alwyn, Benny Safdie, John C. Reilly
• Genre: Drama, Thriller, Romance
• Rating: NR
• Metacritic score: 67

You can now see Claire Denis’ most recent movie, which was a major hit at Cannes, on Hulu and create your own opinions. Adapted from Denis Johnson’s 1984 novel, it stars Margaret Qualley as an American journalist who finds herself stuck in Nicaragua and Joe Alwyn as the British man she meets and falls for right away before learning that he’s involved with the CIA. A stunning performance from Qualley elevates this dizzy, sweaty, and sexual romantic thriller.

62. Crimes of the Future

• Director: David Cronenberg
• Stars: Kristen Stewart, Léa Seydoux, Viggo Mortensen, Scott Speedman
• Genre: Sci-Fi, Drama, Horror
• Rating: NR
• Metacritic score: 67

The name David Cronenberg is synonymous with horrifying body horror, and his most recent movie is a return to the subgenre he helped establish. Viggo Mortensen and Léa Seydoux play a performance artist couple who make their living by performing live surgeries in which they remove superfluous organs from the body in front of rapt audiences.

The film is set in an alternate future. A government agency that tracks new organs is interested in them, as is a strange cult of individuals who are experimenting with their own brand of biological performance art. It’s a massive old Cronenbergian mashup of concepts that will undoubtedly make you uncomfortable.

61. Rosaline

• Director: Karen Maine
• Stars: Kaitlyn Dever, Bradley Whitford, Christopher McDonald, Isabela Merced, Nico Haraga
• Genre: Comedy, Romance
• Rating: PG-13
• Metacritic score: 66

In this updated version of Romeo and Juliet, Rosaline, Juliet’s cousin and Romeo’s abandoned love interest, is portrayed by Kaitlyn Dever. It’s the well-known tale told from Rosaline’s perspective as she devises ever-weirder plans to keep the two parts of history’s most well-known love story apart. Dever can do no wrong in my opinion, and director Karen Maine’s previous movie, yes, God, yes, was a scream, so that’s more than enough to keep me watching.

They become successful together, but as success them so did critical decisions that are starting to weaken their romantic relationship and their dreams are starting to drive them away from each other.

La La Land is an energetic musical film that possesses the power to bound its audience as it has fluidity and a sense of magical thinking, where the characters tend to communicate more with their body language, than their voices. According to the director, choreography for such films is extremely important and a piano note is more powerful than a lyric. The film beautifully narrates about love and dreams and how two people can affect each other.

While performing the dances, we can see the dancer’s entire body, and the actors and performers work hard as Chazelle prefers to work in long and unbroken takes. Moreover, Ryan Gosling’s and Emma Stone’s chemistry was on point and the audience has declared them as one of the on-screen couples, as they are fluid, diligent, and mesmerizing, and we tend to love them more.

The beautifully allure the classic Hollywood as the on-screen couple go to see movies like Rebel Without a Cause, Casablanca and many more and the film pays homage to musicals such as Singing in the Rain, and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg.

The plot of the film is about a couple who have overcome their failures and they have successfully built a sustainable farm on 200 acres of land right outside Los Angeles. They overcame all the obstacles; their farm is now thriving, and their lives have now transformed for the better.

The film is very intriguing, and the audience would like it if they grew up hearing and reading stories about small farms consisting of ducks, lambs, sheep, pigs, and a loyal dog, then this documentary will instantly become their favorite and it will show you nostalgic images in your heads. The film had minor problems as certain scenes are beautifully executed while on some it feels extremely vague and immature.

Apart from the minor flaws, the film is amusing to watch, and the character sketch is beautifully written and executed. I must say, the clips present on the internet did not seem to be very appealing, but I was blown away when I saw the movie, even though I did not grow up reading farm stories, but this movie was interesting, and I loved it from the beginning to the end.

The movie was completely soaked in Woody Allen’s directive style, and the movie beautifully shows the American and European cultures. The movie is filled with British humor, and the way this film shows the literature and art is perfect, one of the amazing things about Woody Allen’s style is that he uses small details that the audience will pay attention to illustrate the character’s actions such as awkward situations or self-analyzing of the characters, because of this he won the Golden Globe and Oscars for Best Screenplay.

However, Tom decided to introspect his 500 days old relationship with Summer to understand how his relationship with Summer went downhill and things tend to be sour for her while introspecting Tom rediscovered his passion for life.

This film is more like a coming age film than a romantic comedy because rom-com movies do not show us the truth about love and romance, and it is like a guidebook for people who have had their first breakup because it consumes you and one would look for reasons to understand the end. This movie is one of my favorites and probably one of the best movies on Hulu of this genre and this movie is personally recommended by me.

This film tells the story of a baseball team, the new team owner of the Cleveland Indians is a former showgirl and her name is Rachel Phelps. Rachel gets a fine deal to move the team from Cleveland to Miami but before she can do that she has to break the lease with Cleveland and she can do this if the ticket sales nosedive.

Rachel does everything to plummet the sales of the ticket and she even hires the most incompetent players such as Rick Vaughn, a near-blind pitcher, and Jake Taylor. However, her evil plan backfired and instead of creating an incompetent team, she formed an iron-willed team spirit, and because of this spirit, they tend to be the favorites to win the trophy.

This is a classic movie and if someone is a die-hard fan of Baseball, then they should watch this movie. Moreover, the movie is well written with a fine pace and not over the top storyline, the characters of the film are goofy, giving the film a higher comedy rating.

The film has two sequels, and neither the second film nor the third film could match the popularity of the first film. The film is a top-tier sports comedy movie on Hulu, and it is a classic that people would never grow tired of.

The film is pretty sensitive and the exchange resonates with intimacy and humor. The script and directing are done in such a way that every character in the film has their tempo, and neither of the characters would feel similar. The plot of the film is beautifully woven, and it will be full of surprises and humor while at some moments it would bring tears to your eyes.

This film is the directorial debut of Shannon Murphy and his debut is probably the best because of his way of the direction the film gets a very different matter and the film tends to avoid any sort of cliches that could take place in a romantic genre movie and in my opinion that makes this film stand out from the ocean of romantic movies present out there.

The documentary is promising as shows us the rise and tragic fall of Ted Ngoy it is a beautiful documentary that breaks our hearts. Alice Gu has done a great job as it has poppy visuals and detailed history about the war-infested Cambodia and the donut industry. The storytelling method was interesting as it will keep the audience preoccupied.

Even though the storytelling can be ambiguous for some people as it tends to jump back in the past and forth in the future when Ted’s fall was being showcased it was shown in detail. The documentary is beautifully managed and it is one of the best biopic documentaries ever made.

The experience you feel while watching the movie can not be described in mere words or sentences.

The Croods is an amazing movie and I’m a fan of this animated movie series, as the plot of the movie is original and unique, and every movie will be different from its predecessor. The characters of the movie are different and none of the characters would resemble each other.

This is one of those films that can be watched with your kids, friends, or family. It is hilarious so you will not be bored even if you will be watching the film for the hundredth time.

Wanna know more…

The film presents an unsettling and tense mood to its audience, and it is shot in a 4:3 aspect ratio, which shows the claustrophobic sense of observation of David’s world. The character sketch was marvelous and equal love and attention was shown to every character in the film.

The plot of the film is unconventional, and it is something everyone should watch as it is not like some weird and cheesy relationship, it is raw and poetic. Moreover, the discomforting atmosphere evokes the situation, and the audience would assume something dark and gloomy is about to happen. The film is more about a man understanding himself, his relationships with his wife and children, and his place in society.

This 2018 survival drama revolves around Overgard, who has been stranded in the Arctic after a fatal plane crash. He must decide to leave the makeshift camp or move out in hopes of finding someone to make out alive.

The film is beautifully chalked out and the characters, as well as the shots, add to the performance of the film, strong performance by Mads Mikkelsen, and it is not because of the dialogues or the way he spoke it, but in simple gestures such as the tender way he cares for the fellow crash survivor, and during that scene he hardly spoke a word but his eyes, actions and gentle gestures make the scene much more emotional.

It is an excellent biopic and the director of the film does an amazing job in paying tribute to the titular character when we talk about her we consider her as a natural talent as she grew up in front of the film camera. Even though we see her glamourous and marvelous performance on the screen, behind the scenes she was broken and in need of another break.

The film is a magnificent work of art from the debut writer and director Rose Glass, and the center of the film is a troubled lady who believes that God or the Devil is working through her Rose Glass focuses on the belief to manifest itself and the isolation of the character from the world.

They meet new people in Mexico and they happened to make friends with Ron and Kayla, everything was great and but they were flabbergasted when Ron and Kayla happened to show up uninvited to their wedding.

After watching this movie you’d be content and happy and the movie is surprisingly funny. The movie is great and John Cena and Lil Rel were perfect this movie and the on-screen chemistry of the characters was spot on. The movie has a nice pace and one would not feel if the writers are trying to drag the film.

Comedy is hard to create in films but Vacation Friends tends to do it with ease and in my opinion, this film has the best comedy rating in recent years and is one of the best movies on Hulu to watch with your family or friends.

At the end of the day, Greg writes his thoughts, feelings, and experiences in the diary to prepare for the day when he will not be feeling the same thing again and again.

The movie is based on the 2007 book by Jeff Kinney and the book was published under the same name as the movie. The movie has three sequels released in the years 2011, 2012, and 2017. The film is a good watch as it has original characters and wholesome humor, and it matched the book’s references which many movies or series fail to do. The film had minor setbacks, but it was covered by storytelling and faithful adaptation. The movies on Hulu are full of diversities and this movie is a good example of it.

11. A Field in England

• Directed by: Ben Wheatley
• Written by: Amy Jump
• Cast: Reece Shearsmith in the role of Whitehead; Micheal Smiley in the role of O’Neill; Peter Ferdinando in the role of Jacob.
• IMDB Rating: 6.2/ 10

The movie is slow and takes place in the English period and this movie is more like an art. The black and white background gave me a sense of gloominess. The plot of the movie is not exceptional but it was about the belief and use of alchemy.

The belief system in the movie was very important for the plot of the movie and it led to the building of suspense, and an eerie atmosphere to keep it going at a steady pace. The ending was not clear and it can be said that the ending is an up-for variation thing because it was not clear and different people will have different viewpoints.

If you are a fan of time period movies and horror movies then you should check out this movie. The characters of this movie are not very appealing or you can not relate to them but if you are looking to watch something that will keep you on the edge of your seats, then A Friend in England is the movie that you should watch.

This is another masterpiece that shows the story of Becky, a young punk rock star, and how she gained. It showcases how the young woman’s creative imagination led her band to new heights of success. As the movie progresses it shows us how the punk star is becoming self-destructive as she is drowning in drugs and alcohol and she is struggling to maintain the level of her band.

This drama film has original soundtracks and it was written by Alicia Bognanno and Anika Pyle and her bandmates. The film is not merely about an intoxicated punk rock star behaving badly but somehow she keeps everything together when needed. The film narrates her addiction and her underlying mental health issues that leave her in a state of psychosis and sometimes she is out of reality, leading her to violent outbursts of emotions.

We can see the fear, tension, and chaos in the film which can overwhelm the viewers. But the performance of Elisabeth Moss and the cast members are outstanding and the audience can not themselves from re-watching the movie multiple times.

Their memories have been disoriented and all their memories are lost, they are now in a realm of surreal memories. And both of them are forced to find the hazy beginnings of their budding relationship.

The plot of the movie is unique and I have not come across such a plot in a romantic movie so I enjoyed it, the film shows us memory is a fickle thing and it can unreliable, and it also talks about how our brains work. It is a good movie and one can watch it if they’re looking for something romantic but not something that is being a part of the masses.

The movie is great as the characters are fun to watch, and they’re real. It is a roller coaster of emotions as we will be having all sorts of emotions while watching it.

His peaceful life would come down crashing when he has to pick up weapons to save the life of an innocent boy from a deadly Cartel near the Arizona-Mexico borders.

The movie is not only action-packed but it does not show Liam’s hard side but also his soft and emotional side. This makes the film a little unusual and it becomes an emotionally weighed story but the film has been told very calmly, and this increases the impact of the action scenes. The cinematography is beautiful and the movie features some amazing scenes. Overall, it is a great watch.

The film is distributed but it is a great watch as it was made with meaningful direction. The movie is heartbreaking as it is a painful tale about the image of black people in modern society. This kind of film will linger in your mind, weeks after you have seen it. The cinematography plays with the foreground and the background, making us two different shots one where the character is focused and the other is blurry.

This is not a good cop, bad cop movie because here police are the grim reaper for Tunde. The film is great and if you are looking forward to watching something serious then this is the movie you should stream.

The film is amazing, and it features ecological horror, and honestly, this is not like the slasher films or an intensely scary film as well. But it gets you with unassuming jump scares. The theme song of the film was fine, and it was pleasant to hear, and the actions of the performers were great.

• IMDB Rating: 4.5/ 10

This is a psychological horror film that shows a family seeking shelter from a tornado getting trapped in a bathroom while waiting for the tornado to pass a demon lurks behind the walls of the bathroom.

The film has a strong premise, and the plot and characters are good enough to watch. Also, the film is based on the horror novella written by Max Booth III. But certain elements in the movies did not go very well. And watching the backstories of every character makes the film monotonous.

Even though it seemed to be a great idea in the novel, here it was unnecessary. Or probably was not sketched well to fit the context. However, the way this develops the scares is amazing. And in my opinion, the horror rating will be a solid 8. The film is amazing, and the plot development is perfect making it a good watch.
