The Best '90s Movies of All Time You Won't Have to Rent on VHS
The 1990s proved a legendary decade in the world of moviemaking. So much so that now, even thirty years later, much of the fodder from the time is cemented in the public consciousness. Can you imagine a life without lines like "Life is a like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get," to quote at random? What about The Matrix's positing that this might just all be a simulation? Or, how about The Truman Show's total mind-bending tip of reality TV to the extreme, before reality TV was the norm?
But before we start feeling too old, the point is, to watch a 90s movie is to take a cinematic time machine back to that world, when the internet was new, people had cassettes, Walkmen, beepers, and dial-up. So if you're looking to hop on the World Wide Web for a little new-age streaming of an older-age movie, we've got you.
Here are the best movies of the 1990s currently streaming.
