Unraveling the Netflix Top 10 Drama - From Subservience's Fall to It Ends With Us' Rise
Jennifer's Body and Till Death: The Megan Fox Horror Choice
Initially, there was a clear recommendation to turn to Jennifer's Body and Till Death for those seeking a Megan Fox horror experience. These films held a certain allure, attracting viewers with their horror elements. Jennifer's Body, in particular, had a unique charm that drew in fans of the genre. It offered a different take on the horror genre, with Megan Fox in a prominent role.
Till Death also played a part in this horror film selection. It provided another option for those looking for a scare, with its own set of horror elements and a captivating storyline. These two films became go-to choices for horror enthusiasts, setting a certain standard in the genre.
Subservience's Demise and It Ends With Us' Ascent
Subservience, which once held the top spot, has now seen its decline. It failed to maintain its popularity and has been overtaken by It Ends With Us. This film, starring Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, has created a lot of buzz. The behind-the-scenes drama only added to its intrigue, attracting audiences from all over.
It Ends With Us tells the story of an abusive relationship, a topic that is both dark and compelling. The film's success at the box office, with a worldwide haul of $350 million, is a testament to its appeal. Audiences were drawn in by the story and the performances, making it one of the most successful romance/thrillers in recent memory.
Netflix's Christmas Lineup: A Mixed Bag
While Subservience is sliding down the list, Netflix's Christmas lineup is taking center stage. #2 is Subservience, followed by #3, the Netflix original That Christmas. This is not surprising, as Christmas movies are a popular genre on the platform.
Among the Christmas movies, Mary stands out with its drama about the mother of Jesus. Starring Anthony Hopkins, it has received dismal review scores, with 30% from critics and 47% from the audience. This may make viewers think twice before watching.
Our Little Secret, starring Lindsay Lohan, and The Star, an animated Christmas movie focusing on the birth of Jesus in a less intense way, also make an appearance. These movies offer different takes on the Christmas theme, catering to a variety of viewer preferences.
Liam Neeson's Run All Night and Other Films
Liam Neeson's Run All Night is also on the list, as it seems to be the only type of movie he makes these days. The film has its own charm and appeal, attracting fans of Neeson's action-packed performances.
Other films like The Children's Train and Little complete the Netflix top 10. Each of these films brings something unique to the table, adding to the diversity of the lineup.
Netflix's Missing Christmas Classics
Netflix has some great Christmas movies in its library, but it seems to be missing some of the classics. The Grinch, Elf, National Lampoons, and Love Actually are just a few of the titles that are missing. It's a shame that they haven't been able to license these movies, as they have been successful in other genres.
However, there is a silver lining. Their new spy thriller show, Black Doves, takes place over Christmas. This offers a unique twist to the holiday season and may attract viewers looking for something different.
