Depends on a lot of factors...

Live action or animated? Live action being dubbed is usually a lot more obvious and distracting. Though occasionally that can be a benefit...
Genre? Applies mostly to live action - stuff like most kaiju movies, b-level martial arts flicks, certain types of fantasy...the downsides of dubbing actually sort of add to the charm. If it's meant to be taken seriously, though...
Am I planning to pay full attention or do something else at the same time as consuming it? Obviously if I don't intend to pay full attention I want the one I can catch most of what's going on without looking at the screen. (Also tend to lean into genres that don't take much brainpower, thus fitting the above category.)
What are the original voices like? Mostly with animation, particularly anime. Give young characters ear-bleedingly shrill voices? That's a dub.
Conversely, what are the DUB voices like? Again, mostly animation, but if you give a serious character in a serious work a goofy voice like you'd find in a Loony Tunes cartoon, I'll stick to the original. (When this comes up in LA, it's mostly, you know, stuff where a 'bad' dub is actually a bonus.)
What is going on with my brain chemistry today? CAN I pay full attention to it, or am I a scatter brain who needs to have 3 things going at once, or am I maybe barely able to even handle one? Latter two cases, definitely dub, regardless of any of the above. (Or else watching something that was always in English. Probably that.)
