Let’s face it — Tubi doesn’t have the best reputation among the major streaming services. It’s not hard to understand why, since it’s free (and therefore, seen as of lesser value) and is known for such cheesy original movies as Titanic 666, He Played Me 2 and Down for Whatever.
But the streamer is quietly the best platform to watch high-quality movies and TV shows from the past. Tubi’s June 2025 programming lineup boasts so many classics, it actually puts rival Netflix’s schedule to shame.
A great indicator that a movie is worth watching is if it scored high on Rotten Tomatoes’ critical aggregate rating. Watch With Us has high standards, so we’ve selected three new movies in Tubi’s June schedule that have a score of at least 90 percent.
‘Clouds of Sils Maria’ (2014)
Rotten Tomatoes score: 91 percent
Maria Enders (Juliette Binoche) is a successful actress who is reaching a point in her life when she’s referred to as “a woman of a certain age.” She’s been offered a part in a play she performed years ago, but then, she played the daughter, and now, she’s being asked to play the mother. Ouch. As she travels to the titular French Alps destination to prepare for the role, she bonds with her assistant, Valentine (Kristen Stewart), and ponders her place in the world.
What’s New on Tubi in June 2025
Clouds of Sils Maria is a head-scratcher — it contains elements of drama, satire, mystery and even science fiction, yet it doesn’t quite fit into any of those genres completely. It’s always absorbing, though, and it’s a treat to watch Binoche and Stewart volley veiled insults and vague flirty passes at one another. The ending is a question mark, and it’s up to you to answer.

‘What’s Love Got to Do With It’ (1993)
Rotten Tomatoes score: 97 percent
Everyone knows Tina Turner (Angela Bassett) — she’s one of the best-selling musicians of all time and appeared in movies and TV shows like Tommy, Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome and more. But how many people know the “real” Tina? What’s Love Got to Do With It fills in the gaps of the performer’s rags-to-riches story and chronicles a life filled with dizzying highs and traumatic lows.
The bulk of the film concerns Tina’s relationship with Ike Turner (Laurence Fishburne), who first serves as her mentor in his band and later becomes her husband. Their marriage soon sours as Ike physically and mentally abuses Tina for years before she finally leaves him. Alone and considered “washed-up” by her music industry peers, she embarks on a comeback that culminates in her becoming one of the most popular musicians in the 1980s.
Bassett was rightly praised for her transformative performance as Tina — if the words “tour de force” didn’t exist, you’d have to invent them to describe her work here. But equally good is Fishburne as Ike. It’s a tricky part, but Fishburne makes you understand why Tina was first drawn to him and why she had to leave him. He’s charming when he wants to be, but often, he chooses to be a monster, and it’s one of the most vivid portrayals of toxic masculinity ever put on screen.

‘Little Shop of Horrors’ (1986)
Rotten Tomatoes score: 91 percent
How did anyone think Little Shop of Horrors would make a good musical? It started out as a 1960 B-horror movie and has since become a Broadway staple. Muppet man Frank Oz directed a movie adaptation in 1986 with a star-studded cast, but it flopped hard with audiences. Critics loved it, though, and so will you.
Seymour (Rick Moranis) spends his days working at a failing flower shop and pining for coworker Audrey (Ellen Greene). When a new plant, Audrey II (voiced by Levi Stubbs), arrives in the store, it attracts customers, but it needs one crucial ingredient: blood. Seymour reluctantly feeds it to save the store and win Audrey’s heart, but the plant grows bigger and hungrier, and soon, it threatens everyone at the store — and even the world.
3 New Hulu Movies with at Least 90 Percent on Rotten Tomatoes (June 2025)
Did I mention this was a musical? Somehow, the movie’s bizarre sci-fi horror plot works as a foundation for some incredibly catchy songs like the title track, “Skid Row” and “Somewhere That’s Green.” Moranis and Greene are terrific as the mismatched lovers, and the impressive supporting cast includes Steve Martin as a sadistic dentist and Bill Murray as his masochist patient.
