Discovering great films is a risk.

Most streaming services make you sift through junk to find something you turn off halfway through. Or worse, you sit through a two-hour movie and forget about it on the car ride home.

The Criterion Channel makes that risk worth it.

You won’t love every film we offer — but every film we offer is worth your time.

The criterion channel: Always Worth the Watch.

Watch your screen time

People spend movie-lengths of screen time not watching movies.

The Criterion app syncs with your Screen Time to show how much time scrolling could’ve been time watching. Scroll too long, and it’ll suggest something better. You can even set times for viewings.

The Criterion channel x Delta

Most people don’t think of flying as a chance to discover their next favorite film. That’s because flights don’t offer a meticulously curated selection.

Now you can pass the time with films that are worth your time.

Worth the watch Film festival

Criterion will host a digital film festival where viewers can vote on new films that they think are worth the watch.

Winners will be featured in the WTW section.
