Netflix's new analytics tool reveals the platform's top-performing films across all countries, highlighting true global hits.
Which Netflix original movie captivated audiences everywhere? The answer comes from top10.netflix.com, a recently launched site showcasing weekly and monthly top 10 lists by country, plus an overall international ranking.
Exploring top10.netflix.com uncovers that the most-watched film is Bird Box. This standout is surprising given its intense violence, earning a prohibition for under-16s in France and limiting access for many subscribers.
Released exclusively on Netflix in 2018 (no theatrical run), this Susanne Bier-directed thriller unfolds in a post-apocalyptic world where a mysterious force drives people to suicide. Survivors must navigate blindfolded to stay safe.
Starring Sandra Bullock and John Malkovich, Bird Box drew mixed critical reviews upon release. Yet, Netflix data shows it racked up hundreds of millions of viewing hours.
Precisely 282,020,000 hours – that's how long viewers worldwide spent with Bird Box. In second place: Tyler Rake starring Chris Hemsworth at 231,340,000 hours. Zack Snyder's recent Army of the Dead ranks 8th with 186,540,000 hours.
The site also features weekly top 10 series. Curious why some drop all episodes at once while others release weekly? Learn more here.
