If you miss Blockbuster movie nights, these 3 free '90s movies on Tubi will take you back

Ah, the 90s, a time when Blockbuster rentals ruled the streets and landline phones were the only way to communicate. For those longing to relive that nostalgic era, Tubi has an abundance of free movies waiting to be streamed. The 90s are amply represented on Tubi, not just the popular titles everyone has seen repeatedly. We have dug into their extensive collection and uncovered three underrated 90s movies that deserve a spot on your watchlist.

First up is "But I'm A Cheerleader" from 1999. Natasha Lyonne plays Megan Bloomfield, a high school cheerleader who turns out to be a lesbian. She's sent to a conversion therapy camp where she meets Graham Eaton, played by Clea DuVall. The film is a satirical, stylish, and delightfully campy take on the theme, full of laughs as Megan navigates her identity. It's a must-watch for a chuckle-filled trip down memory lane.

Next, we have "Leaving Las Vegas" from 1995. Nicolas Cage stars as Ben Sanderson, a Hollywood screenwriter who loses his job and burns all his belongings. He gets behind the wheel and heads straight to Las Vegas, determined to drink himself to death. There, he meets Sera, played by Elisabeth Shue, a sex worker dealing with her own pimp.

Their unlikely connection forms the basis of a haunting drama. Cage's performance is raw and unhinged, for which he earned an Academy Award for Best Actor. It's a film that will stay with you long after the credits roll.

Lastly, we have "The Thomas Crown Affair" from 1999. Pierce Brosnan plays Thomas Crown, a wealthy billionaire who steals a $100 million painting from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Catherine Banning, played by Rene Russo, is an insurance investigator who suspects Crown from the start. The film is a slick, stylish thriller that adds to the Bond-esque spy genre. Brosnan's portrayal of the suave thief is a highlight, and the film is a fun, cool cousin to his Bond films.
