  2. The Secret Agent 97% · 2025 · ages 15+
  3. Memento 96% · 2000 · Rated R
    A revenge thriller told in reverse, so you're as confused as the hero, who can't form new memories. It's clever, bleak and rewards a second viewing, and it puts you inside his head.
  4. Soul 90% · 2020 · ages 6+
    Pixar's funny, thoughtful film about a jazz teacher who loses his body and must work out what makes life worth living. It is warm and inventive, and adults may get more from it than kids.
  5. Coraline 90% · 2009 · ages 8+
    Henry Selick's stop-motion fantasy about a bored girl who finds a too-perfect parallel home is creepy, inventive and kind to its heroine. It really is scary for younger kids.

Best TV Shows on Hulu Right Now

  1. Rick and Morty 94% · 2013 · ages 12+
    A fast, crude, clever animated sci-fi comedy about a reckless scientist and his grandson. It is funny and inventive, but extremely cynical and often vulgar.
  2. Lost 94% · 2004 · ages 11+
    Plane-crash survivors on a mysterious island fight to live while the island reveals secrets. It built a huge audience with its puzzles and characters, though not everyone loves where it ends up.
  3. House 93% · 2004 · ages 12+
    A sharp medical mystery built around a brilliant, rude doctor. Hugh Laurie carries it, and the weekly case structure makes it easy to dip into or binge.
  4. Sons of Anarchy 93% · 2008 · ages 15+
    A dark, violent crime saga about an outlaw biker club and the family tangled up in it. It's loosely inspired by Hamlet, packed with twists and soapy melodrama, and strong when it focuses on its characters.
  5. The Good Doctor 92% · 2017 · ages 11+
    A warm, easy-to-watch medical drama about a young surgeon with autism and savant syndrome proving himself to doubters. Formulaic and sentimental, but well liked and reliably comforting.
  6. WandaVision 92% · 2021 · ages 11+
    A very odd Marvel series that begins as a sitcom pastiche across the decades and slowly reveals what is going on. Bold and original, though some payoff needs prior Marvel knowledge.
  7. Malcolm in the Middle 92% · 2000 · ages 8+
    One of the funniest family sitcoms ever made, with a gifted kid who breaks the fourth wall and a household in permanent chaos. It's sharp, fast, and still holds up.
  8. The Mentalist 92% · 2008 · ages 12+
    A former fake psychic uses sharp observation and a knack for reading people to help solve murders. It's a polished, charming case-of-the-week series with a long-running story underneath, and the lead is easy to watch.
  9. Bones 92% · 2005 · ages 12+
    A forensic anthropologist and an FBI agent solve murders from bones. It's a comfortable procedural with likeable leads and a slow-burn romance, and a lot of episodes. It rewards fans of the case-of-the-week format.
  10. Fargo 92% · 2014 · ages 15+
    A darkly funny crime anthology set around the American Midwest, where ordinary people stumble into murder. It's stylish, well-cast and written with a sharp ear, and each season stands mostly on its own.
