It's no secret that music holds memories, but in The Greatest Hits, those memories quite literally pull Harriet (Lucy Boynton) back in time. It's a compelling concept, albeit a slight remix of an older trope (think The Time Traveler's Wifeor About Time). Throw in some rom-com gooeyness and we've got ourselves a fun new flick.
Writer/director Ned Benson's The Greatest Hitsalso stars David Corenswet as Harriet's late boyfriend Max, Justin H. Min as her new love interest David, Parks and Recreation's Retta as her therapist, and Austin Crute as her best friend. The film has already brought in some mixed reviews from critics, but we'll let you watch and decide for yourself. Here's everything you need to know about how to watch The Greatest Hitsonline (and maybe even for free).
What is The Greatest Hits about?
After a tragic accident took the life of her boyfriend Max (David Corenswet), Harriet discovers that certain songs can transport her back in time for as long as the music plays. She uses the music to literally travel the timeline of their relationship, seeking an opportunity to change his fate. As she navigates her grief, her past collides with a new love interest in the present.
Billed as a rom-com, The Greatest Hitsis also a portrait of grief and the arduous path of moving forward — not to mention, the transformative power of music.

Best for T-Mobile customers: Hulu (with ads) included for one year
Opens in a new window Credit: T-Mobile / Hulu Hulu (with ads) Free with T-Mobile Go5G Next plan If you're not on a T-Mobile Go5G Next plan, this incentive may convince you to make the switch. T-Mobile customers on this plan can get Hulu with ads included for free as of Jan. 24 — and that's on top of the already stacked lineup of Netflix, Apple TV+, and MLB.tv. Just navigate to the T-Mobile website, choose "redeem now," and claim your offer. You'll have to enter your T-Mobile number and account details in order to sign up for Hulu. And after your initial 12-month promotional period, you'll have to take action in order to keep your Hulu subscription going. Otherwise, this deal is pretty straightforward.
Best for students: Spotify Premium for Students with Hulu
Opens in a new window Credit: Spotify / Hulu Spotify Premium for Students with Hulu Free 30-day trial, then $5.99 per month College students have a couple different ways to sign up for Hulu for free or at a huge discount. First up, there's Spotify Premium for Students, which gives students access to Spotify Premium and Hulu with ads for only $5.99 per month. If you're new to the streamer, you'll also get your first month for free. The only requirement is that you can prove you're a student through SheerID's verification.
Don't need another music streaming service? No worries. You can also just sign up for a Hulu Student account for $1.99 per month — that's 75% off the usual monthly cost. Unfortunately, there's no free trial, but at that cost, it's forgivable. Like the first option, you'll also have to prove your student status through SheerID to claim the deal.
Best bundle deal: Hulu and Disney+ (with ads)
Opens in a new window Credit: Hulu / Disney+ Hulu + Disney+ (with ads) $9.99 per month (save 37%) Full disclosure: if you're simply looking to watch The Greatest Hits and bounce, this is not the best option. However, if you're looking for a well-rounded streaming deal (and one of the best ways to access Hulu), it doesn't get much better than the Disney bundle. With the Disney Duo bundle, you'll get access to Hulu with ads and Disney+ with ads for only $9.99 per month. That's just $2 more per month than paying for only Hulu (or 37% in savings). If you're also a sports person, you can toss ESPN+ in the mix with the Disney Trio bundle for only $14.99 per month. That's a total savings of 44%.
