100 best movies you can watch in 100 minutes or less at home right now

90 minute movies

Yep, each and every one of these best 90 minute movies (ish) are available to stream from the comfort of your couch right this second.

The headline kind of tells you everything you need to know! 100 movies, each of them considered among the best 90 minute movies you can see. Because as much as all love a great epic movie, sometimes we just need something shorter, something more concise, more succinct, more to the point.

We’re busy people and we don’t always have all day to watch the super long extended director’s cut edition of everything. Sometimes we’ve only got about an hour-and-a-half to fit a movie in, which is where this list comes in.

All movies and their relevant streaming services were correct at the time of writing, and with that, on with the lists. To make things easier for everyone, we’ve ever broken them up into categories, to match whatever you might be in the mood for!
