US Edition‘War Machine’ Debuts With 39.3 Million Views in Three Days on Netflix
War Machine topped Netflix's English movies list with 39.3 million views during its opening weekend, marking a strong debut for the Lionsgate sci-fi military film.
- On Friday, March 6, War Machine debuted on Netflix, recording 39.3 million views and topping the Netflix English movies chart for that week.
- Alan Ritchson stars in the new Lionsgate release, and Netflix calculates views by dividing hours viewed by runtime, affecting reported totals and complicating comparisons.
- Down the list, multiple films still registered multi‑million view totals, including Trap House with 4.4M, The Boss Baby with 3.3M and Hierarchy with 3.2M.
- On Friday, March 6, Netflix excludes live sports like the World Baseball Classic from its Global Weekly Top 10, so those games do not appear in rankings, while 13.1 million views kept the series at the top from March 2 to 8.
- From March 2 to 8, the latest season maintained a week atop the Netflix Top 10 with 13.1M views, after remaining episodes boosted it to 28M views in their debut weekend, following the first four episodes' 23.4M views.
