Tubi to Remove 200 Movies In 2 Weeks – Here’s 3 to Watch Before They Leave

Tubi, the ads-supported free streaming service, plans to remove 200 movies after July 31, 2024. Here are the three you should watch before they leave, in my humble opinion:

Training Day (2001)
Denzel Washington is a force of nature in this Antoine Fuqua-directed movie about a young cop (Ethan Hawke) partnered with a corrupt veteran detective (Washington) on the seedy side of Los Angeles. Washington’s magnetism dominates the screen playing the detective who believes the ends justify the means (particularly when the ends include some grafted cash). Hawke is also effective as the newbie looking to climb the ladder without losing his soul in the process. A powerful film from beginning to end.

Goodfellas (1990)
Martin Scorsese’s brilliant 1990 mob drama starring Ray Liotta (RIP), Joe Pesci and Robert DeNiro. Ten years earlier, Scorsese made Raging Bull and it seemed improbable then that he could top such a work of art. But he did. Goodfellas has become one of those movies that you can watch over and over and never be bored.

American Psycho (2000)
The 2000 satirical horror film about a Wall Street broker (Christian Bale) who moonlights as a serial killer is not for all tastes. But if you get the joke, you’ll love this send-up of the young cold mercenaries who sometimes inhabit Manhattan’s financial district. Bale is flawless in the lead and the outstanding supporting cast includes Chloe Sevigny, Reese Witherspoon, Jared Leto and Willem Dafoe.
