The best streaming services, including Hulu, have extensive content libraries While it's great to have unlimited access to TV shows and movies, it can be hard to know what to watch Fortunately, Hulu has the top 15 shows and movie collections to give you an idea of what's trending on this platform
This week, however, the Top 15 movies are few and far between In fact, there are only two in the Top 15 and one in the Top 10 One is Asphalt City, a dark thriller about two New York City paramedics The other is “Child Star,” a documentary by Demi Lovato about the impact of fame on young actors Both deserve consideration as films to watch this week
Without further ado, here are Hulu's top 10 movies worth watching right now
This is based on the Hulu Top 15 movies and shows as of Tuesday, September 24
“Asphalt City” stars Tye Sheridan as Ollie Cross, a rookie paramedic with the New York City Fire Department He is paired with a grizzled veteran paramedic, Gene Rutkowski, and the two must deal with gang shootings, dog bites, and junkies But as they spend time together, Ollie realizes that he and his partner may not agree on the best way to provide treatment
This is not a film for the faint of heart This thriller is dark and gritty Some critics have described it as “extremely grim” and “an ultra-violent nightmare,” and Tori Brager of Metro magazine has even described it as “a ruthlessly bloody paramedic thriller that is determined to wear you down”
However, if you go to see the film expecting it to be dark enough, you may find that it is worth watching Patrice Witherspoon of Pop Culture Review called it “a really funny movie,” and Nathaniel Fetarvero of Singapore's New Paper said, “If you are willing to confront the darkness, ‘Asphalt City’ is a compelling and unforgettable experience Don't miss this 2023 Palme d'Or contender while it's still in Hulu's Top 10

“Child Star” missed the Hulu Top 10, but is still firmly in the Hulu Top 15 We also felt it was worth mentioning this week, given that the documentary about child stardom debuted last week and made the Top 10
The documentary stars child-turned-pop star Demi Lovato In her directorial debut, she sits down with fellow child stars Drew Barrymore, JoJo Siwa, Raven Symone, Christina Ricci, Kenan Thompson, and Allison Stoner to discuss the trials and tribulations of becoming famous at a young age
WARNING: This film may be difficult for some to watch because it deals with topics such as drug use and suicide However, unlike “Asphalt City,” which is merely dark, “Child Star” ends on a brighter note and seems to be more of a group therapy session with a positive outcome in mind rather than a tale of misery and sorrow
