When a movie includes subtitles by default, it is usually to translate what a character speaking in a foreign language is saying. For example, an English-speaking character in a film full of characters speaking Japanese will have their lines subtitled in Japanese. Subtitles can also be turned on in many home video releases to assist people who are hard of hearing or deaf.

Some movies have English subtitles because they are in a language other than English. It could also be because they have included close captioning for the hearing impaired.
