Netflix just got a war movie that’s already crashed the top 10 — and viewers rate it 92% on Rotten Tomatoes

Dennis Quaid in "Midway" (2019).

Netflix’s top 10 hasn’t held the best flicks as of late. That’s proven by the new No.1 Christmas movie “Our Little Secret” and one of the worst movies of the year, “Afraid” (which isn’t worth adding to your watchlist). However, a war drama has just surged into the streaming service’s top 10, and its conflicting reviews are certainly interesting to say the least.

“Midway” is the movie in question, and it’s currently sitting in the No.7 spot at the time of writing. Despite not being a total box office disaster, the movie’s performance has often been deemed a “flop” in the industry. With a hefty production budget of around $100 million and global box office returns falling short of expectations, “Midway” struggled to make a lasting impact in theaters back in 2019. Yet, this war drama received plenty of praise from viewers, and it might see more success now that it's streaming on Netflix.
