This Box Office Bomb Is The Top Movie On Netflix Right Now
“The Little Things” is the most popular movie on Netflix, according to the platform’s public ranking system.
The 2021 psychological crime thriller was a box office bomb that received mixed reviews from critics upon its release. Denzel Washington and Rami Malek star as Los Angeles detectives in the 1990s who encounter a tremendously creepy suspect while investigating a string of murders.
Although writer and director John Lee Hancock first drafted the screenplay in 1993, “The Little Things” spent decades in “development hell” before production finally began in 2019. The movie was released in theaters and on HBO Max on Jan. 29, 2021 and just joined Netflix earlier this month on April 1.
