Hollywood may have embraced blockbusters in the '90s, but it's an underrated decade when it comes to movies. Some of the films made during the 1990s can easily be counted among the best movies ever made. However, the Watch With Us team feels that the Oscars only named the correct Best Picture winners three times in that decade. That's why we're giving the decade a mulligan and sharing our own picks for the best movie of every year of the '90s. The Best Movie of Every Year of the '80s The Best Movie of 1990: 'Goodfellas' Nobody does crime epics quite like Martin Scorsese, but the director had the worst luck at the Oscars for decades. Goodfellas is Scorsese's magnum opus, and it's a mesmerizing account of the life of mobster Henry Hill that paved the way for The Sopranos nearly a decade later. Ray Liotta plays Hill, a low-level criminal who works his way up through the Lucchese crime family alongside his best friends, James "Jimmy" Conway (Robert De Niro) and Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci). The camaraderie between that trio is so infectious that the audience roots for them even while they're covering up a murder or performing other acts of violence. Pesci's Tommy also had a memorably menacing persona, which made certain events in the film even more surprising. The sheer skill on display in this movie is staggering, and it remains a classic. Goodfellas is available to rent or buy on Prime Video. The Best Movie of 1991: 'Beauty and the Beast' Beauty and the Beast made Oscar history by being the first animated film to be nominated for Best Picture. It lost to The Silence of the Lambs, which is a terrific thriller, but Beauty and the Beast is a work of art that has rarely been matched by any animated movie that came after it. There is a small amount of CGI animation in the background, but the lush hand-drawn animation is timeless. 7 Must-See Animated Movies For Adults, Ranked Perhaps the greatest improvement that this version makes over the fairy tale is that it gives Belle (Paige O'Hara) a distinct personality even before she meets the Beast (Robby Benson). The music and original songs also elevated this film, thanks to Disney legends Howard Ashman and Alan Menken. That duo even gave the film's villain, Gaston (Richard White), his own hilarious show-stopping song. This film is about as close to perfection as any movie is ever going to achieve. Beauty and the Beast is streaming on Disney+. The Best Movie of 1992: 'Unforgiven' Clint Eastwood became a star by headlining Spaghetti Westerns in the '60s, so it was only fitting that his greatest movie as an actor and a director was also a Western. Unforgiven plays like the spiritual successor to Eastwood's earlier films as he portrays William Munny, a former outlaw turned widower and family man who can barely provide for his children. Will's friend, Ned Logan (Morgan Freeman), and a would-be bounty hunter, The Schofield Kid (Jaimz Woolvett), nudge him out of retirement to claim the bounty on a cowboy who disfigured a prostitute. Their ambitions run afoul of Sheriff "Little Bill" Daggett (Gene Hackman), a man who is willing to murder them if they try to kill their target. This film was artfully made and would have been the perfect swansong for Eastwood if he had chosen to retire. Instead, he kept making great movies for the next three decades. Unforgiven is streaming on MGM+.

This was a marked departure for the director, who embraced the serious subject matter and filmed it almost entirely in black and white. It's based on the true story of Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson), a war profiteer during World War II who employed Jewish workers during the Holocaust. Schindler isn't a righteous man, but he is so horrified by the atrocities that he witnesses that he dedicates himself to saving as many lives as possible. Ralph Fiennes also has a haunting turn as Amon Göth, a Nazi officer who delights in the cruelty he inflicts on his prisoners. John Williams' powerful score evoked empathy and sorrow, and that also went a long way towards cementing this film's place in history. Schindler's List is available to buy and rent on Prime Video. The Best Movie of 1994: 'Pulp Fiction' If Reservoir Dogs put Quentin Tarantino on the map, then Pulp Fiction was his coming-out party. How did Forrest Gump win Best Picture over this?! Pulp Fiction is a crime movie that's overflowing with memorable characters, quotable lines and a non-linear narrative that actually makes it even more interesting to watch. 'Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair' Trailer Teases 4-Hour Version of Film Multiple stories unfold during the film, most notably following the misadventures of hit men Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson). Their characters popped off the screen and ga
