We've all been there: sitting on the couch, snacks ready, endlessly scrolling through at least once in their lifetime. Consider it your ultimate movie bucket list, and you'll never spend a night scrolling through streaming services again. What makes a movie a "must-watch" film? For our purposes, it's something that defined or changed a genre or had a significant cultural impact. There are a lot of classics on this list, and you might be surprised by how relevant some of them still feel. But if you're looking for something a bit more recent, there are plenty of contemporary films on here too. We've included many Without further ado, here are 99 of our picks for must-watch movies you can stream now. Pro tip: bookmark this list and save it for your next "I have nothing to watch!" night in.

And if you’re filling in the gaps of your movie knowledge – or heck, just starting to build it – this is a tremendous place to start. Because this is a list that covers a lot of ground: over 100 years, multiple countries, and just about every genre you can imagine, from monolithic blockbusters to treasured cult classics, ridiculous comedies to freaky horror, sweaty-palmed thrillers to eye-popping action flicks. No matter where you are on the movie appreciation spectrum, we’re sure you’ll find something to love here. Or get mad about. We’re cool either way.
