There’s no doubt that Netflix is pretty awesome. Past seasons of Mad Men, Breaking Bad and Friends. Originals like Orange is the New Black and Stranger Things. They even have some good movies. Some. But to get to those good movies, you really have to wade through a lot of drivel. My Little Pony: Equestria Girls. The Human Centipede 3. And the aptly named The Ridiculous 6. And when I (finally) see a movie that looks good, how do I really know? I don’t want to “invest” two hours in a movie I may not like.
That’s why we created Tribeca Shortlist. We’re movie lovers. We love the kind of movie that makes you laugh, makes you think… makes you want to talk about it for a few days after seeing it. I’m not talking about tiny art-house movies where you wonder throughout if anything is actually going to happen. I’m talking about great stories with great directing and acting. Hits like Clueless, modern masterpieces like Thelma and Louise, classics like The Birdcage and Oscar® royalty like In the Heat of the Night.
We have those movies this month and many more, most of which are NOT on Netflix streaming. If it’s not a good movie, we don’t have it on OUR service. Our top 50 movies have an average Rotten Tomatoes score of 95%. And we change it up, with about 1/3 of our movies swapping out each month.
But do you want to know the best part? You don’t have to take our word on what movies you should watch — you can just listen to experts, like Jill Kargman (Odd Mom Out), Morgan Spurlock (Super Size Me), Paula Froelich (author, Mercury in Retrograde), Tahj Mowry (Baby Daddy, Kim Possible) or Wyclef Jean (founding member, The Fugees).
We’ve asked countless Hollywood insiders — actors, directors, producers and others to talk about their favorite movies. In short, insightful video clips like the ones here, they tell you why they loved a movie and why you will, too. Click play and you can watch that movie on all your favorite devices. And guess what…you can even DOWNLOAD all our movies and Shortlists to your iOS or Android phone or tablet to watch offline and on the go. Boom!
So if you love a good movie and don’t want to waste your time searching through and watching drivel, try a FREE TRIAL of Tribeca Shortlist.
