Netflix’s top 10 constantly changes around with new releases and old favorites shaking up the rankings. But quietly, a thrilling crime-drama has just surged to the No.3 spot, and that’s “Escape at Dannemora”. This limited series landed on the streaming service on October 22 and is already gaining plenty of attention.
If you searched for “Escape at Dannemora” reviews online, you'd probably find that most critics are calling it a slow burn. However, it's the kind of pacing that rewards patience. Most true crime content delves straight into the drama and conflict, but this show takes time exploring the psyche of each character. This structure clearly paid off considering it earned pretty strong reviews upon its release over six years ago, with Patricia Arquette, Benicio del Toro and Paul Dano all being praised for their compelling performances, and Ben Stiller earning acclaim for this directing.
