3 New Peacock Movies With at Least 90 Percent on Rotten Tomatoes (August 2025)

One of our favorite things about streaming movies on Peacock — aside from the generally good selection of films — is that it syncs with Rotten Tomatoes, so when you’re looking at a movie that holds a particularly high score, you can see it right in the app interface.

That makes it easy to pick out great films. Watch With Us is here to make it even easier by selecting three movies that have earned over 90 percent ratings on the platform.

Check out some of these high-scoring options in August and beyond.

‘School of Rock’ (2003)

“I pledge allegiance to the band.” School of Rock came out in 2003, but the irreverent and heartwarming movie is so timeless that it still has our allegiance more than 20 years later. It stars Jack Black as Dewey Finn, an unemployed musician who takes on a substitute teaching job (under his roommate’s name) to make some cash.

But when he discovers that his young charges are super-talented musicians, he comes up with a scheme to recapture his dreams of rock stardom. With a sweet message and some rockin’ tunes, it’s no wonder this movie has 92 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.

‘Good Will Hunting’ (1997) 

Will Hunting (Matt Damon) is a janitor from South Boston who just happens to be a “wicked smaht” genius. When he solves a complex problem while working nights at MIT, two professors take an interest in him — mathematician Gerald Lambeau (Stellan Skarsgård) and therapist Sean Maguire (Robin Williams).

It soon becomes clear that while Will’s intelligence is off the charts, he has a lot of emotional hurdles to overcome to reach his full potential. Helping him along the way are girlfriend Skylar (Minnie Driver) and best pal Chuckie (Ben Affleck). Cowritten by Damon and Affleck, the film is rated 97 percent fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. How do you like them apples?

‘Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret.’ (2023)

We weren’t the least bit surprised that Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret.’ has a 99 percent score — it’s pretty much a perfect adaptation of the perfect coming-of-age story. We were excited to learn that after being taken off of Peacock for a while, it’s back this month. Margaret Simon (Abby Ryder Fortson) is devastated when her mom, Barbara (Rachel McAdams), and dad, Herb (Benny Safdie), move their family from New York City to the suburbs.

Newly separated from her beloved Grandma (Kathy Bates) and all her friends, her life is turned upside down — but when she befriends a group of puberty-obsessed girls at her new school, she turns her laser focus onto becoming a woman. Funny, sweet, beautifully shot and full of excellent performances, this movie earns every percentage point, one fabulous ‘70s outfit or beautifully restrained McAdams line read at a time. Come for the life lessons, stay for the chants about increasing your bust.
