Essential MUBI Movies Ranked by Tomatometer
Since 2007, when it was originally called The Auteurs, MUBI has been on a mission to bring arthouse, independent, and world cinema to our theaters and TV screens. It initially began as a streaming service that rotated its catalog every month, and then became a film distributor with the release of its first acquired film, Arabian Nights.
In the last few years, MUBI has left a significant mark in the film industry, rivaling such independent powerhouses like A24 and NEON. Park Chan-wook’s Decision To Leave, Ira Sachs’ Passages, and Jim Jarmusch’s Father Mother Sister Brother are just a few of MUBI’s critically acclaimed films, and Coralie Fargeat’s The Substance was its first film to win an Academy Award, when it won for Best Makeup and Hairstyling. (The Substance was also nominated in several other categories, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actress).
We’re celebrating all of the incredible movies MUBI has distributed by collecting its essential films and ranking them by Tomatometer. Check out our list below to see where your favorites landed, and to see what should be next on your watchlist. — Bryce Marrero
