Best movies to watch on The Criterion Channel in United States
107 top rated movies are available on The Criterion Channel in United States right now. Catalogues differ by country, so this is the The Criterion Channel United States list, not the Indian one. Only titles rated 7.0 or higher with at least 100 votes make this page, so a single enthusiastic rating cannot push a film to the top.

Frequently asked questions
How is "top rated" decided here?
A title needs a rating of 7.0 or higher out of 10, from at least 100 votes, to appear on this page. The rating comes from TMDB's audience score, plus OTTpath visitors' own star ratings where enough people have rated a title. We do not use IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes scores — those are licensed and not ours to republish.
Why does a film I like not appear?
Either it is rated below 7.0, or not enough people have rated it yet. The vote floor is there on purpose: without it a single 10/10 rating would put an unknown title above everything else.
Are these the best movies in United States or everywhere?
These are the highest rated movies that are actually available on The Criterion Channel in United States right now. A better-rated film that nobody can stream here is left out, because this page is about what you can watch today.
