It was only a matter of time before Jodie Comer’s latest movie stormed up Netflix’s rankings – I’ve been watching it climb at pace in the UK, where it’s now the official new no.1 inthe best streaming service’s top 10 chart.

The End We Start Fromappeared for a short cinema run at the beginning of 2024 – and I distinctly remember Comer, the movie’s protagonist, promoting it on various chat shows ahead of release. She looks as you’ve never seen her before in many scenes: pregnant and acting as a young mother.

And while you may know Comer from runaway successes such as the showKilling Eve– and that’s one reason she’s a master of accents – inThe End We Start Fromshe owns her native Liverpudlian accent. As you can see from the trailer below, she delivers “a career-defining performance”:

The End We Start Fromis a disaster movie of sorts, but one that looks to the humanity and moments of love over strife. I’m not saying it’s cheery, per se, as bleakness is this flick’s very setting.

Critics and audiences also can’t decide how they feel about it. Sure, Comer’s performance is largely lauded, but the overall movie has theRotten Tomatoes scores sitting at 88% from criticsbut just 66% from audience reviews.

That’s quite a wide divide to start with, but if you go over toIMDb’s site then the overall 59% equivalent ratingis even lower. Clearly, then, the movie’s themes and sensitivity have opinions split – and I suspect that’ll only increase, as this one’s hardly a classic summer blockbuster (despite being well worth a watch).

It’s good to see a British movie top the Netflix chart, though, furthering the streaming service’s diverse listings. In recent times we’ve seen a whole host of chart-toppers, fromGodzilla: Minus One(Japanese), toUnder Paris(French).

Netflix has plenty of competition, though, with Apple TV+, for example, really upping its game of late: from thequirky-looking sci-fiSunny, to theMatt Damon-starring thrillerThe Instigators. That’s why we call it ‘the sci-fi streaming king’.

How long willThe End We Start Fromremain as Netflix’s new no.1? Only time will tell. With so much landing on the service of late, there’s no lack of great movies and shows to watch – so there’s always jostling between the most-watched selections.
