The best streaming services, including Hulu, have deep content libraries. While that's great, because we get endless hours of TV shows and movies, it can be a bit of a struggle to figure out what to watch. Luckily, Hulu has a top 15 shows and movies collection that gives you a look at what’s trending on the platform.

This week, there's just one movie in the top 10 — "Omni Loop." But it's a good one, as this sci-fi drama starring Mary-Louise Parker and Ayo Edebiri got mostly positive reviews when it debuted last year. Just outside the top 10 though, we have a pair of movies worth highlighting, including the black comedy biopic "Winner."

So without further ado, here are the top movies worth watching right now in Hulu’s top 15. If you're looking for more to watch, check out our guide to Hulu's top shows.

BEST MOVIES IN THE HULU TOP 10

'Omni Loop' (2024)

"Omni Loop" stars Mary-Louise Parker as Zoya Lowe, a quantum physicist with a unique medical condition. Specifically, she has one week left to live due to a black hole growing in her chest. To survive, she sends herself into a time loop, using time travel pills she found when she was 12 years old that allows her to go five days backward in time.

But one day, she meets Paula (Ayo Edibiri), a research assistant studying the concept of time at a local community college. Zoya enlists Paula to help her find a way to travel back to gain years and potentially alter her past. If you want a fun but emotionally deep sci-fi movie with an interesting premise, "Omni Loop" is worth a watch.

Honorable mentions

'Winner' (2024)

Watch On

"Winner" stars Emilia Jones as Reality Winner. This black comedy biopic focuses on her childhood with parents Billie (Connie Britton) and Ron (Zach Galifianakis) in Texas. The September 11 attacks deeply shaped her life, as it did many in her generation, and in 2010 she joined the U.S. Air Force and was ultimately stationed in Fort Meade, Maryland, home to the National Security Agency.

But that's not why Reality is worthy of a biopic. After her time in the Air Force, she was hired as a contractor for the NSA, at which point she came across documents that indicated the U.S. intentionally misled the American people about Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election ... and proceeded to leak them to the press. Critics were mixed on "Winner" due to its tone but still praised it for Jones's performance as Winner.

'The Mummy' (2017)

Not to be confused with the 1999 Brendan Fraser movie of the same name, "The Mummy" stars Tom Cruise as Nick Morton, a U.S. Army sergeant who along with his friend and comrade Corporal Chris Vail (Jake Johnson) stumble across the tomb of the ancient Egyptian princess Ahmanet. However, in the process, they accidentally bring her back to life, at which point all Hell breaks loose.

Full disclosure, I don't recommend you watch this movie. It's reviled by critics and audiences alike, with Uproxx going as far as to say "If you like incomprehensible collections of things that vaguely resemble other things you might've enjoyed in the past, "The Mummy" is the movie for you." Instead, watch the 1999 Brendan Fraser version, which also happens to be on Hulu. It's one of my favorite action movies of all time and I guarantee you'll have a fun time.
