Watching free movies online is a convenient and frugal way to see the movies you love right from the comfort of your own home. All you'll need to watch these free online movies are a computer or TV with an Internet connection.
There are plenty of places to watch free movies online but the places listed below have the largest amount of movies, are safe for your computer or TV, and are legal for you to use.
These aren't movie clip or trailers, they are free full length movies that you can watch beginning to end with perhaps a few commercial interruptions. All genres of movies can be found as well from comedy to drama from horror to action. There are movies from big-name studios to older or independent movies that many of us love to watch over and over again.

1. Crackle

Crackle tops my list for the best place to watch free movies online because through their partnership with Sony Pictures they have almost 300 full-length free movies you can watch. These are big name movies with stars you know.
These are high-quality movies that look spectacular on whatever size of monitor or screen you are watching them on. You will have to sit through a few commercials every once in awhile but they are short and there are only a few commercial breaks during a feature length movie.
Adaptation, The 6th Day, Bad Boys, The Cable Guy, Click, Charlie's Angels, Cruel Intentions, Resident Evil, The Messengers, and Ghostbusters 2 are just some of the free movies online at Crackle that I spotted last time I visited.

2. YouTube

YouTube isn't just the place to go to watch videos of skateboarding dogs or the latest movie trailers. They now have movies you can rent but more importantly, movies that you can watch for free.
Scroll down the page and look for the heading Free Movies to see the most popular movies that are free on YouTube right now. You can also browse through the movie genres and sort to see only the free movies.
At my last visit to YouTube I was able to watch free movies online like Big Daddy, Talladega Nights, Mr. Deeds, and The Runaways

3. Hulu

Hulu is widely popular and there's a reason for it - it really is one of the best places out there to watch free movies online.
You'll find hundreds of free movies online at Hulu through their partnership with Miramax and movies from the Criterion Collection. These are free full length movies that you can watch over and over again without paying a dime and worrying whether you're breaking the law.
Besides being a great place to watch free movies online, Hulu also has thousands of full length TV episodes and an impressive list of documentaries.
You can watch the movies at Hulu in SD for free but you'll need to subscribe to Hulu Plus to enjoy HD movies. There is a free 1-week trial available if you want to try that out.

4. Popcornflix
