Netflix genuinely ought to reconsider the designation of its section within the app that displays the daily rankings for the “Top 10” films. Repeatedly, this segment delivers third-party films that A) have no viewership during their initial release, and B) are titles that nobody appreciates. If one isn’t cautious, it may create the illusion that these films are ascending to the #1 position based solely on their merit.
The most recent Hollywood disaster that has somehow soared to the top of Netflix’s Top 10 films list? That would be Liam Neeson’s “Ice Road: Vengeance,” which is presently the #1 film on Netflix in the U.S. — surpassing, I should mention, “KPop Demon Hunters” at #4. I’m aware the latter has begun its decline in viewership after months of dominance as essentially the blockbuster release on Netflix this summer. But seriously.
Were you even aware that this film was a thing? Because the handful of individuals who did recognize that this (checks notes) sequel to 2021’s “Ice Road” was indeed a real film have given it some remarkably poor ratings.
