About this list
Every title here is ranked by its Lantern Score, which combines IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic into one 10-point number. Movies need thousands of votes to qualify, and TV shows need 70,000 votes on one platform, so a show watched by millions isn't outranked by one only a few have seen. The Foreign tab covers non-English movies and shows from every country, tagged with where they come from. Open any title for its full score breakdown and where to watch it.
