Say Goodbye to Netflix’s Brutal 4-Part Historical Epic

Netflix has had yet another wildly successful year already in 2026, with some hits big enough to crack the streamer’s all-time top 10 most-watched list. The film in question to accomplish such an impressive feat is War Machine, the big-budget sci-fi thriller starring Alan Ritchson from the Prime Video series, Reacher. The film picked up over 135 million views during its initial viewing period, which is enough to make it the #9 most-watched Netflix movie in history. Netflix also found success with the premiere of The Rip (starring Ben Affleck and Matt Damon) and Apex (starring Charlize Theron and Taron Egerton), but neither did well enough to earn a spot in the all-time top 10. Netflix’s latest blockbuster comes in the form of The Whisper Man, the new twisty psychological thriller starring Robert De Niro and Adam Scott opposite Michelle Monaghan.
