Tubi has a surprising amount of quality movies in its catalogue, some of which I’ve given 5/5 including Whiplash, Donnie Darko and one of my favourite movies of all time, Memento. From the available 298 available to stream, I’ve gathered all the movies and TV shows that ranked 6.5 or more on IMDb.
And if you’re looking for poorly rated cult classics, I recommend Johnny Mnemonic starring Keanu Reeves and Samurai Cop.
