Every week I recommend a handful of the best movies on Netflix, Amazon, HBO etc. so my subscribers never run out of good movies to watch on streaming. Spending 10 minutes watching one of my videos could save you hours of searching, hours that you could otherwise spend watching good movies on streaming that you otherwise might not have ever watched or even known about.

A great FLICK CONNECTION Darren. 3 that I’ve watched several times; ‘71, Harry Brown and Starred Up; all excellent. Appreciate you sharing with us. Many thanks 👍👍👍
Shattered glass doesn’t show up on Tubi for me in the U.S. only freevee
Watched your #1 Good Time. Uh, I don't agree but it gave me a happy childhood memory of Adventure Land in Farmingdale. My grandmother lived in Farmingdale and we would go to see her and AdventureLand.😊
Check out You Were Never Really Here… and pay attention!
I always liked Emily Mortimer. Some films on here I haven't seen with her in it.
Lot of new ones for me here !
And those I did see I definitely want to see again...
I don't mind me some Tubi when Darren points out the gems.
Thanks !
What's really great about Lars and The Real Girl is that it doesn't go in any expected directions. The way his friends respond to Lars and his girlfriend is very touching.
What a great list! My only complaint is that I don't have enough hours to keep up with all your great recommendations. Keep 'em coming ! Thanks.
Housebound!!! Yearly watch.
Thanks, Darren👍✌️
Love the list, I need to watch a few soon! Thanks DVD!
Thanks for another intriguing list! My taste usually aligns with yours pretty well so I now have several more movies to catch up on. I opted to watch Into The Abyss last night and it was so compelling! Thanks again!
Great video finally have something to watch.
also could you do tv show/series recommendations as well? I'll appreciate it
Dude this might be the BEST list you've ever put out. The fact they're all available on tubi, just gives it more power.
Yes this is a really good list. Also how the FUCK did I never think of D.V.D holy lol 😂
Great list! These Final Hours, ‘71, Standoff at Sparrow Creek, and Four Lions are all really good.
One of the best lists you've ever done. And some I havn't seen (yet)
Great vid
great list - thank you for sharing:)
Hey dude never miss your stuff, greatly appreciated.
How about a collection of good flicks that do not do shakey cam?
said it before, your reviews and suggestions are spot on. Great content and delivery!
Dang Darren...You Nailed it on this list...Good Job..
Just watched These Final Hours and it was so good! Thanks for the recommendation. I’m so glad I found your channel.
Great list!
This channel has brought so much joy to me and my wife. Thank you.
Glad you enjoy it!
Damn! This list is full of gold! A 24K film list! Hats off to you!
Man Good Time was such a wild flick. Probably my favorite Safdie from. Thanks for the recommendation on Starred Up, that sounds right up my alley
Yes!!! Great recommendations as always!!! Thanks 🎉❤
You are so welcome!
Looks like I need to check out Tubi. I haven't crawled through your entire history of videos, but I'm a little surprised I haven't heard you mention the movie Shot Caller; it's a bit of a slow burn, but the end hits like a truck, imo. Thank you for all of the recommendations!!!
Thank for the thriller recommendations.
Always love your videos your recommendations have landed me some good new watches. Have only heard of a few of these and own Possessor and Belko so there should be some cool watches in the near future.
If you own Possessor and Belko, Let the Corpses Tan might be for you.
@@DarrenVanDam I have definitely had that one on my radar looks excellent.
@@DarrenVanDam I am watching it now, reminds me of a Sergio Leone film, with the same kind of cinematography and a score that echoes of Morricone. Very good and atmospheric thanks for the recommendation Darren it's well worth it.
I'd really love to see videos like that, but about TV Shows and Series.
LOVED THE BELKO EXPERIENCE!!!
Just finished watching Shattered Glass. Live Christenson. It was a greaat choice. Thanks for your suggestion.
I love dystopian / end of the world movies. So I will have to check out "The Final Hours." I recently watched "The Rover" based off your recommendation, and it was one of the best movies of this genre I ever saw. Never would've heard of it without your channel. Keep up the great work!
Watched The Best Offer and thought it was very well done. Highly recommended.
Shattered Glass is phenomenal. These Final Hours was really good, too (I would have put Shattered Glass above it, though).
Maybe i’m out of it..but - "Ford Vs Ferrari" ..wow ! (Matt Damon)
I watched Harry Brown a while back. Michael Caine did a phenomenal job. I was pleasantly surprised by how good this movie was. Thanks again for your great recommendations!!
I had the amazing honour of playing drums with a bassist mate of mine with Harry sievey,the son of Chris sievey,the man in the Frank sidebottom head,,it was a day of gigs in Manchester in support of frank sidebottoms charity...we opened the gig with Harry's band,mask
Both harry and frank are sadly passed away 😢
The belko experience was so fantastic of a movie it blew me away
Intelligent, perceptive, articulate, concise. Keep up the good work.
Possessor was slow at first…but dang…it just…whoa 😳. Completely unexpected. Loved it.
Standoff at sparrow creek I saw a few years ago. ❤’d it.
Excellent list, as always.
That is one of the most interesting lists you’ve compiled - and on Tubi no less!
LARS AND THE REAL GIRL is jaw dropping entertainment, sweet, weird, and hilarious!!!
These Final Hours stuck with me long after. Worth a watch.
I loved _The Belko Experiment;_ I saw the incredible _Lars and the Real Girl_ in cinema when it was released. It's so well written and Gosling is so good in it that I _was weeping_ during the funeral scene...!
Hey Darren love the channel. It often saves me trawling Netflix, Prime, et al looking for something to watch 👍
I also love the Tarantino t-shirt you were rockin' in this episode. I have two questions. 1. Do you/would you ship to the UK?
2. I'm a big unit and was hoping a 2XL measures 25" across the chest?
ty, ok just watched housebound.... starts with a little laugh... a little slow then kind of like seen this done before then gets cool. love the last scene.
These Final Hours was so good. I watched it based on your recommendation a While ago.
A few days ago a friend in Spain emailed to recommend Housebound . I'm a Kiwi and never heard of it . Funny af in a very Kiwi way
Just watched "cutters way" on Tubi I was a big fan, definitely worth checking out if you like neo noirs
Damn you man, you've given me to many movies too watch. I think I'm gonna take some vacation time to binge watch. That reminds me, I need to buy more beer and wings.
Love Let the Corpses Tan! I'm a big fan of Hélène Cattet and Bruno Forzani's work. Highly recommend The Strange Color of Your Body's Tears for anyone who likes super trippy giallo-style horror!
Thanks for the new word--giallo--and that means I must try "The Strange Color of Your Body's Tears."
Elina Löwensohn too! Loved her in Nadja.
Sorry. I didn't realise I had tickets... ...to the guns show 💪💪
I know two of them: The Belko Experiment and Transiberian. I have about 1500 DVD’s though. TransSiberian is one I have enjoyed several times. Thanks for the info on the others!
I have a couple recommendations that I have not seen on any list, but I highly recommend both. 1- the Stanford prison experiment 2- fable- the killer who stopped killing.
What happened to your rims lol (flim reels ) in the background ? 😂
Where can I get one of those tee shirts from ?
DVD, always love your picks! Ive recently started showing my wife, who is 10 yrs younger, movies from my childhood I know she hasnt seen. We just watched people Under The Stairs! An all time fav of mine! Yes she def liked it. I forgot how much I enjoy that movie too!
THANKS
Lars and the Real Girl is an exceptional movie in its poignancy.
We watched “The Best Offer” on your recommendation.
It’s a great movie!
Saw harry brown. Had no idea what it was about. It was good. My older brother had me watch Lars and the doll when I was over to his house. It was wonderful how the town came together.
I’m definitely checking out Hunger and Harry Brown is a must see. I can’t recommend it enough
Tubi has a couple of great James Woods movies- "Salvador" and "True Believer". It also has "Murder in the First" with Kevin Bacon and Christian Slater.
Good Time feels like the firecracker scene in Boogie Nights, for the entire run time.
Lars and the real girl is on my top 10 best movies ever.
Not even half way thru (just got to (transsiberian). I've already got 5 must watch, and 1 I've seen. Thanks D.V.D.🤙🤘
4 Lions will not let u rest from all the Laughing that u will incur 😂😂
I saw Frank I guess 2 or 3 years ago and really felt it. Strong recommend.
If anyone needs a little push to watch either “started up”, “housebound” or “belko experiment” .
Do it,youll feel like you’ve watched a good movie by the end of any of them .
The Belko Experiment was bonkers! Good though.
Harry Brown is a masterpiece! Also like THESE FINAL HOURS and ‘71. Those are my picks ..that I have seen.
The belko experiment is pretty good
Four Lions is possibly one of the best satire movies ever written. The sequel, "The Day Shall Come", is not nearly as good, but worth a watch too.
Based on your recommendation, I watched TransSiberian and Shattered Glass. Those were really good. Thanks again!
Darren really likes Brad Anderson and i completely agree!
These final hours is a fantastic movie. I never understood how it is not more known.
@DarrenVanDam
I hope to put something on your radar from 2008. Only OG Netflixers would know. Probably their first original. Felon.
Val Kilmer, Stephen Dorff. If you've seen it, I think it deserves a list spot somewhere. If not... please give it a go. I hope I'm not the only person in your comments that has seen this movie.
Again, this is list was such a banger, thanks for all these movies I need to watch I never knew.
Upgrade is my current "surprisingly good movie" that most people haven't heard of.
Upgrade is top-notch. It doesn't make sense to not do part 2. I hope it's in the works.
ive only seen 2 of these films- Starred Up and Four Lions- both outstanding- Four Lions is one of the best comedies of the last 20 years imho. Tubi has some fantastic classic movies on it, sadly in Canada it is missing many of these.
I've only heard of a few of these, thanks, man! But "Possesor," yikes!
You got me with Harry Brown.
on CZcams FREE also
- Shattered Glass
- These Final Hours
- Frank
- Four Lions
- Lars and The Real Girl
Loved Lars and the Real Girl and Good Time was GREAT
When I first heard Robert Pattenson was going to be batman, I checked out Good Time. I was blown away by his acting ability.
Good Time, exactly!!!
Four lions is one of my favourite films
Checkout "The Blackout" 2018...the Russian soldiers one! I enjoyed it almost as much as The Good the Bad and the Weird! Thanks, ha I just realized your initials DVD :)
Would love a video on newer made great western videos. We need a new western to come out like Unforgiven!!!!
Lars and the Real Girl is the cutest movie in the world
Thinking about "These Final Hours" - comparable to "On the Beach"?
DVD , 4 Lions is one of the funniest movies I have seen along with another of your picks Black Dynamite I would also say Starred up is a great prison movie Jack O'connell is very good
'71 is a great movie. Being from the UK, and of Irish descent, this is a very well made and factually accurate.
BTW this is your best list without a doubt
My Cup of Tea, This. 💯.
I'll be back to Balloon this list out (as long as You don't mind Sir); that and subsequently Completely Remodel this post right here.
The Fable 2: The Killer Who Doesnt Kill , on netflix. Never heard a single youtuber mention this once. Japanese crime dramedy live action manga adaptation. The first one is good too, but I like 2 more
thnx
Does tubi change what's available? None of your recommendations don't seem to be available.
Shattered Glass is SUCH an underrated movie!
Love your stuff, I'm a no streaming guy,buy 2nd hand DVDs...
Final Few Hours was very unique movie. Recommend
Lars was a uh, a movie for sure. Was interesting. I did enjoy the quirkiness of it. One to include in your next list like this and you probably have at one point is, Grigsby Bear. For those who don't know, it's about a boy who grew up in a fallout shelter and was lied to his whole life that the world outside was a toxic wasteland. He grows up watching this PBS style kids' show called, Grigsby Bear. Turns out, the kid was a kidnap victim and is rescued and now has to live live above ground in a completely foreign to him environment. No, it's not anything like Blast from the Past. It's a good quirky movie starring Saturday Night Live alum Kyle Mooney.
Frank is absolutely great!
Harry Brown is a great movie.
Have you seen Dead End with Ray Wise? I don’t think a lot of people have
Why isn’t Four Rooms on that shirt? That seems to be a forgotten Quentin Tarantino directed movie. I know he shared the directorial spot with a couple other people, but his influence in the movie is obvious, not to mention he’s also an actor in the movie.
