Netflix’s Spiritual Successor to ‘Narcos’ Officially Becomes a Streaming Sensation

The biggest movie across the globe on Netflix this past week wasn't the drama Don't Say Good Luck or even the holdover sci-fi thriller The Last House. Both movies drew 12 million views each, with The Last House narrowly missing out on the top spot for the third time in a row. The number-one movie on Netflix this past week, instead, was a Mexican neo-Western based on real-life events from a decade ago. Unlike its competitors, Netflix shares viewership data on a weekly basis, and the latest report tracks the week of August 17 to August 23. While Don't Say Good Luck topped the English-language movies chart with 12.8 million views, pushing The Last House to number two, the Mexican film generated 18 million views in its first week on the non-English list.
