Netflix’s New Hit Stays at the Top in Many Countries

A Father’s Descent into Revenge

In a heartbeat, a reckless driver shatters a father’s world, leaving his son clinging to life. 180, Netflix’s latest revenge thriller, thrusts viewers into a raw, unfiltered battle of rage and retribution. There’s no time for subtlety—just brutal honesty, messy emotions, and a plot that pulls no punches.

From Zero to Number One in 91 Countries

Released on April 17, the film didn’t just climb the charts—it obliterated them. Within days, it dominated 91 countries, including a fierce top-three debut in the U.S., toppling heavyweights like Minions. Critics are divided: Is it a gripping thriller or a spiraling descent into violence? Early buzz calls it "above average", but with only one review logged, opinions remain sparse.

Yet, audiences don’t need Rotten Tomatoes to decide. The numbers speak for themselves—a testament to a story that cuts deep, even in today’s oversaturated streaming wars.

Raw Drama Over Polished Action

Directed by Alex Yazbek, 180 trades slick action for heavy drama, relying on raw performances rather than star power alone. The cast anchors a narrative that feels undeniably real, a rarity in an era of overproduced blockbusters.

A revenge tale like this isn’t for everyone. But for those who crave something unfiltered, 180 delivers.
