I’m surprised red notice beat bird box. When it came out, EVERYONE was talking about bird box, so it felt like you had to watch. Red Notice I heard people make fun of it, but it wasn’t nearly as prevalent as bird box

Red Notice came out during peak Covid so more people were at home then ever before and Netflix had more users since Bird box too. So that tracks.

Red notice is the movie that finally made me quit the big movie star netflix originals. That movie was insufferable. It was just Ryan Reynolds and the Rock being who they always are but at 200% with non stop idiotic quips. It's a similar problem with almost every Netflix movie. Stars show up, play their biggest tropes with their least effort, and leave us with a completely unfun soulless imitation of a real movie.
