I use this python script to unmonitor movies where the quality cutoff is met, and search for movies that are missing or unmet (I have RSS disabled).
Look at the faq for full details but in general terms you search when you first add a movie and then Radarr checks the RSS feeds of your indexers every 15 minutes and checks anything added against what it has monitored.

In this guide we will try to explain the basic setup you need to do to get started with Radarr. We're going to skip some options that you may see on the screen. If you want to dive deeper into those, please see the appropriate page in the FAQ and docs for a full explanation.
First we’re going to take a look at the Media Managementsettings where we can setup our preferred naming and file management settings. Settings => Media Management
Settings => Profiles Here you’ll be allowed to configure profiles for which you can have for the quality, preferred language, and custom format scoring of a movie you’re looking to download. We recommend you to create your own profiles and only select the Quality Sources and Languages you actually want. For more information on foreign titles and la...
Settings => Quality Here you’re able to change/fine tune the min and max size of your wanted media files (when using Usenet keep in mind the RAR/PAR2 files)
Settings => Indexers Here you’ll be adding the indexer/tracker that you’ll be using to actually download any of your files. Once you’ve clicked the + button to add a new indexer you’ll be presented with a new window with many different options. For the purposes of this wiki Radarr considers both Usenet Indexers and Torrent Trackers as “Indexers”. T...
Settings => Download Clients Downloading and importing is where most people experience issues. From a high level perspective, the software needs to be able to communicate with your download client and to have read & write access to the location the download client reports files the client downloads. There is a large variety of supported download cl...
After setting up your profiles/quality sizes and added your indexers and download client(s) it’s time to import your existing organized media library. Movies Select Import Existing Movies or select Importfrom the sidebar.
Search in radarr, and then in the search results you can search terms like director's cut or final cut. Then apply a filter to only show 4k or whatever format you want. And you've pre-configured your size requirements so it's only showing decent bitrate.
Interactive Import - Review all files within the path and attempt to match to a Movie in Radarr allowing the user to review the results. Move or Copy/Hardlink is a selectable option in the bottom left corner. Manual Import (Movie) - Manually import a movie file for a movie you have added to Radarr from the assigned movie's folder
Radarr does not regularly search for movie files that are missing or have not met their quality goals. Instead, it fairly frequently queries your indexers and trackers for all the newly posted movies, then compares that with its list of movies that are missing or need to be upgraded.
