Sometimes, the most popular movies on Netflix are not the best movies on the streamer. Case in point: M.

We’re also featuring The Bricklayer, an action thriller that will probably be on top of Netflix’s movie charts by the end of the weekend. This film barely registered at the box office, but that’s never stopped the Netflix effect before.
