Three overlooked films on Hulu that you should check out this weekend (August 7-9).

      If you find yourself spending more time on Hulu browsing through endless rows of titles rather than actually watching anything, you're certainly not alone. To help you overcome that decision fatigue, I’ve curated a selection of three overlooked rom-com films that include a lighthearted romance set in London and a subtle drama exploring connection and vulnerability. Whether you're in the mood for something fun or something more introspective, there’s a choice here for you. Here are three Hulu titles that deserve a spot on your watchlist this weekend.

      We also offer guides to the best new movies to stream, top films on Netflix, standout movies on Hulu, must-see free films, and recommended titles on Amazon Prime Video.

      **Rye Lane (2023)**

      - **Genre:** Romance, comedy

      - **IMDb:** 7.2/10

      - **Rotten Tomatoes:** 98%

      Yas and Dom meet in the restroom of an art gallery while recovering from painful breakups. They spend an entire day exploring South London together. While the premise may seem familiar, the unique experiences they encounter, including an awkward encounter with an ex, keep it feeling fresh.

      I recommend this film for its visual appeal. Director Raine Allen-Miller captures the city in warm, vibrant colors that even make a restroom meet-cute look lively. David Jonsson and Vivian Oparah exhibit a natural chemistry that shines through their rapid dialogue, which feels spontaneous rather than scripted. By the end, you’ll be eager to book a trip to London just to follow in their footsteps.

      **Good Luck to You, Leo Grande (2022)**

      - **Genre:** Comedy, drama

      - **IMDb:** 7.2/10

      - **Rotten Tomatoes:** 94%

      Nancy Stokes is a retired schoolteacher seeking the intimacy she missed in her uninspiring marriage. She books a hotel room to meet a sex worker named Leo Grande, and their planned encounter quickly develops into a series of profound and witty discussions about body image and vulnerability.

      I appreciated how this Hulu film adeptly transforms what could be an uncomfortable premise into a gentle, humorous exploration of self-acceptance. Although most scenes take place in a single hotel room, the dialogue between the two characters sustains the film without feeling monotonous. Lead actors Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack share a heartfelt dynamic that conveys more about self-acceptance than many larger films can achieve.

      **Palm Springs (2020)**

      - **Genre:** Comedy, romance

      - **IMDb:** 7.4/10

      - **Rotten Tomatoes:** 94%

      Nyles finds himself reliving the same day at a wedding repeatedly and has completely surrendered to it. Everything changes when Sarah, the bride’s sister and maid of honor, accidentally gets caught in the time loop. Together, they engage in chaotic adventures, embrace nihilistic freedom, and confront existential fears.

      While the premise leans towards a sci-fi storyline, the movie primarily addresses themes of emotional isolation, burnout, and how two people behave when faced with a lack of consequences. I enjoyed the chemistry and playful exchanges between Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti, and how the film manages to be funny, odd, and surprisingly heartfelt by its conclusion.
