I supplement the big ones with FilmStruck (has a subset of the Criterion Collection), MUBI and Fandor. Together they have a decent collection of "older" (pre-2010s) films.

I don't know for the other twos but Mubi doesn't have much of a collection. They have a rolling 30 titles chosen by them. It's interesting if you want to discover new movies (though heavily dependent on their taste being aligned to yours), but not so much if you pull the filmography of Gene Hackman on imdb and want to watch the movies you haven't seen already.

[edit] actually none of the other two you mentioned is available in the UK...

Right, MUBI is more like an online movie theater. FilmStruck and Fandor are traditional streaming services. They're small, though. I think FilmStruck's catalog numbers much less than a thousand.
