What’s New to Stream on Hulu for September 2020

Hulu has been stuck in the third-place position when it comes to movie streaming behind Netflix and Amazon Prime because most people still see them strictly as a home for next-day television. They have movies, too, though, and more than a few of them are gems that make Hulu a destination beyond last night’s TV shows. The complete list of new movies and shows available to stream on Hulu for September 2020 is below, but I wanted to highlight the best of the bunch along with several others worth seeking out.


Hulu Pick of the Month for September 2020

The girls of Pen15

I typically reserve this spot for movies as films > shows more often than not, but the return of one of last year’s best new series deserves to be highlighted. Pen15: Complete Season 2 (Hulu Original) arrives on 9/18 with all the awkward, uncomfortable, highly relatable comedy intact. Leads and co-creators Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle return as middle-schoolers — acting opposite actual teens and pre-teens — and their show is as hilarious as it is heartbreakingly honest.


Second Chances

Will Smith in Gemini Man

Look, I get it. All the tech talk about 60 frames per second weirded you out. And the reviews were especially harsh (outside of our own). But I’m suggesting you give Gemini Man (2019) a second chance starting on 9/18. Will Smith and Mary Elizabeth Winstead are having a great time, and you will too as Ang Lee delivers some terrific action sequences. Sure the plot is familiar, but so what. Enjoy the visual splendor and gunplay.


’70s Cinema

Charles Bronson in The Mechanic

Ah, the 70s. Unlike Netflix, Hulu brings on more than one “older” film each month, and here are three worth highlighting. The Last House on the Left (1972) isn’t among my favorite Wes Craven films (I actually prefer the remake), but it was a game-changer for him and the indie horror genre. The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane (1976) isn’t nearly as well known, but little Jodie Foster delivers another stunner of a child-performance against a creepy Martin Sheen making for a compelling thriller. And finally, The Mechanic (1972) received a lesser remake that can’t touch this original — Charles Bronson and Jan-Michael Vincent as two hitmen are gold.


’80s Antics

Big hair in Criminal Law

Get a load of that hair in Criminal Law (1988)! Gary Oldman and Kevin Bacon play opposite each other in this grim, suspenseful tale of a serial killer and a criminal justice system he’s mastered. Chuck Norris headlines Invasion U.S.A. (1985), but don’t hold that against it. The film delivers some over the top Cannon fun that absolutely wouldn’t get green-lit today. And lastly, Some Kind of Wonderful (1987) is a gender-flipped Pretty in Pink that one-ups that film with a far better ending.
