It’s rare for a new Netflix movie to take me by surprise but that’s what just happened with “Rez Ball”. I foolishly overlooked this sports drama before its release, but now, only a few days after dropping onto the world’s most popular streaming service, it's making a serious play to be named the No. 1 movie on the entire platform.
Released last week (Sept. 27), “Rez Ball” currently ranks No. 3 on Netflix’s ever-rotating most-watched movies list behind only the animated family-flick “The Garfield Movie” and the testing true crime doc “Jailbreak: Love on the Run." But don’t be surprised if it manages to outrank both of them very shortly, as the movie looks to have all the attributes needed to become a true champ of the streaming game.
