David Fincher's new film, The Killer, topped Netflix's Top 10 films immediately upon release

After a limited theatrical release domestically, "The Killer" made its debut on Netflix on Friday, November 10, and instantly blew up the streaming platform's movie ratings, topping the Top Movies chart.

Here's What We Know

The thriller, based on the French graphic novel series of the same name from director David Fincher, took the top spot in the Top 10 films on Netflix on the day it was released, ahead of recent hits like "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse" and "No Hard Feelings."

Fincher is famous for causing a stir with his films and always being welcomed by audiences. Apparently, "The Killer" was no exception and held the top spot on the Netflix list even on Sunday. But it's worth noting that after "The Killer" debuted at the Venice Film Festival, the film was praised by critics as "not the director's best work," though it still received positive reviews with a caveat for the director's signature writing.

Here's What The Movie Is About

Michael Fassbender plays the role of a professional killer who has failed in his assignment and is now forced to confront his own employer.

For Fassbender, his work in "The Killer" is his first since his involvement in "X-Men: Dark Phoenix" in 2019.
