And just when you think it's gone entirely off the rails, it becomes an emotional and thought-provoking film about character relationships. From there, Titane is a riveting and savage ride as shocking as it is unpredictable (you'll never think of airport bathroom sinks the same way again). The French-Belgian film defies genre but spends lots of time in almost all of them - horror, science-fiction, drama, comedy - as it follows a model with a titanium plate in her head that she got after a car crash when she was young at car shows.
But I'm glad it did because Titane is absolutely amazing in the most primal sense of the word. Given its everything, I have no idea how Titane became the winner of the 2021 Palme d'Or, the top prize at the Cannes International Film Festival. Stars: Agathe Rousselle, Vincent Lindon, a dope Cadillac
Uh oh! Deep Water was supposed to get a theatrical release in 2020, but now it's going directly to Hulu with less fanfare than it deserves - though straight-to-streaming may end up being the best thing for it.
What are good gay movies to watch movie#
Deep Water stars Ana de Armas and Gone Girl mode Ben Affleck, who started a relationship when the movie was shooting in 2019 and have since broken up, as a married couple who play twisted psychosexual mind games with each other, and then people around them start turning up dead. Now that streaming is creating a demand for erotic thrillers again, Lyne is back like he never went away. His last one was 2002's Unfaithful, which came out right at the end of the erotic thriller's period of commercial viability. This is the first film from director Adrian Lyne ( Fatal Attraction), one of the central figures of the erotic thriller subgenre, in 20 years. That means this list will look a little different from the other ones out there, as we're focusing on Hulu originals, new arrivals to Hulu, films that are on Hulu that aren't anywhere else, and personal favorites.Īna de Armas and Ben Affleck, Deep Water Claire Folger/20th Century Studios This list isn't just about the absolute best movies of all time that critics tell you are good it's about the best movies to watch on Hulu right now. Coming later this month is the Finnish creature feature Hatching on May 6, for all the weirdos out there who like weird stuff (we do!). If you don't really care about star power, remember that one of the great things about Hulu is that it's home to a bunch of small-budget movies that might not otherwise be seen by wider audiences, so we recommend checking out the body horror freak show Titane, the German-language sci-fi rom-com I'm Your Man, and the ruminative divorce drama Bergman Island. Our list of the best movies to watch on Hulu right now features man-of-the-moment (in my opinion, anyway) Nicolas Cage in Pig, which you might've missed last year but is no less great, and man who attended the Met Gala Sebastian Stan in Fresh.
