3 Best Free Movies to Watch on YouTube, Pluto TV, Tubi and More (June 2026)

Are the best things in life free? Maybe, but it depends on the time of the year – and which streaming platform you're using.

While Netflix and HBO Max continue to raise their subscription prices, ad-supported streamers like Tubi, YouTube and Pluto TV continue to offer content that doesn't cost a dime.

In June, these platforms are streaming some top-tier films, like the critically acclaimed drama All of Us Strangers with Paul Mescal and Jamie Bell and classic comedies like Soapdish, starring Sally Field, Kevin Kline and more.

But there's just one catch to all of these free movies – they tend to leave their respective streamers pretty quickly, so you'll have to watch them sooner rather than later.

‘Snack Shack' (2024) – Pluto TV

TV writer Adam (Andrew Scott) lives a lonely life in London. He seems to be the only tenant in his new high-rise apartment building until he meets Harry (Paul Mescal), who immediately comes on to him. Adam is attracted to him, but he's going through a weird midlife crisis that involves him interacting with the ghosts of his dead parents (Jamie Bell and Claire Foy). Why is he seeing visions of people who have been dead for decades? And how is Harry connected to Adam's fractured state of mind?

All of Us Strangers is a deeply moving drama about dealing with loss, both in the past and the present. Adam has never gotten over losing his parents at such a young age, and that's informed his interactions with other people, particularly potential lovers like Harry. The film is gorgeously shot and directed, creating a London that feels, appropriately enough, like a ghost town. The film's cast of four actors all deliver the best performances of their careers, and the ending will break your heart in two and put it slowly back together again. It's that good.

‘Soapdish' (1991) – YouTube

Celeste Talbert's (Sally Field) personal life is a lot like her professional one – over the top, melodramatic and completely unbelievable. That makes sense when you find out Celeste is the star of a long-running soap, The Sun Also Sets, which is slumping in the ratings. To increase viewership – and to kick Celeste off the show so he can sleep with her hot-to-trot costar Montana Moorehead (Cathy Moriarty) – slimy producer David Seton Barnes (Robert Downey Jr.) hires two people from Celeste's past to work on the show: adorable Lori Craven (Elisabeth Shue), her niece who quickly becomes a rising star, and Jeffrey Anderson (Kevin Kline), a cheesy actor she used date years ago. Celeste has a dark secret she doesn't want anyone to find out, but when Lori and Jeffrey start flirting with each other, she may have no choice but to reveal it to save everyone from a fate worse than unemployment.

Soapdish is as poppy and gossipy as the title suggests. It takes great delight in lampooning the soap opera genre, while also generating some pretty decent soap opera plots that would make the writers of Days of Our Lives jealous. The film is also very, very funny, and it gives performers like Field, Downey Jr. and Whoopi Goldberg a chance to flex their ace comedic timing. Look for a young Teri Hatcher as the show's resident man-eater, Ariel Maloney, who wants Jeffrey all to herself.
