This fantasy action sequel just became one of Netflix's most-watched movies — and I'm not sure why
Fantasy fans might have spotted that an epic new action-adventure has crashed the Netflix US top 10 list. "Wrath of the Titans," Jonathan Liebesman's epic swords-and-sorcery follow-up to "Clash of the Titans" recently got added to the streaming service — and it looks to be a hit with subscribers. In just a few days, the sequel has already jumped up to the No. 3 spot in the streamer's most-watched movies list, behind the magical heist thriller "Now You See Me" and Netflix's recent crime thriller, "A Widow's Game". If you'd spotted the movie rising through the ranks and were trying to decide whether to stream "Wrath of the Titans" on Netflix, here's a little more info about the movie, and a quick round-up of critical opinion on the movie to help make up your mind. (spoilers: it's a definite skip from me) Following the box office success of "Clash of the Titans", Warner Bros. brought us another movie loosely inspired by the Greek mythos. Here, we find Perseus (Sam Worthington) attempting to live a quiet life as a fisherman and parent to his young son, Helius. Alas, conflict's brewing between the gods and the Titans, and when Ares (Édgar Ramirez) and Hades (Ralph Fiennes) ally with Titan leader Kronos, Perseus is dragged back into the fray. The traitorous gods make a deal to capture Perseus' father, Zeus (Liam Neeson), prompting the demigod to set off on a perilous journey into the underworld in order to rescue him. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. In addition to all those named above, "Wrath of the Titans" also stars Rosamund Pike, Toby Kebbell, Bill Nighy, Danny Huston, among others. Despite being a massive fantasy fan myself, I can't in good conscience recommend "Wrath of the Titans" unless you're really desperate to stream a loud, overblown swords-and-sorcery story. It's epic in genre and scope, but not exactly in terms of quality. The big draw here should be the action, and while some of the battles are well constructed (if edited in a disorienting manner), others lack real weight because they hinge so much on clashes with hulking beings mostly rendered with CGI. And, viewed through modern eyes, the effects certainly look dated (especially in the obviously made-for-3D viewings moments), and dominate the movie so much, making it quite a relentless and exhausting viewing experience. It wouldn't be as disappointing if "Wrath of the Titans" didn't also boast poor dialogue and stiff performances. And, seeing as practically every streaming service has turned its hand to fantasy at one point, these days, there are far better options out there (check out my round-up of the best fantasy shows on Netflix, for starters). I'm not the only one who wouldn't recommend it, though. As I mentioned, "Wrath of the Titans" doesn't exactly come highly praised. At the time of writing, the fantasy sequel holds a mere 26% critics score on the review aggregator, Rotten Tomatoes, with an audience score of 49% — indicating at best mixed reactions. Empire's Helen O'Hara gave "Wrath of the Titans" a two-star rating, writing: "If even a tenth of the care and attention lavished on the production design and action sequences had been afforded the script, this could have been an adventure of legendary proportions. As it is, this fizzles whenever anyone opens their mouths." Want a second opinion? Well, critic Roger Ebert echoed that take in his own two-star review: ""Wrath of the Titans' is obviously not concerned with plausibility. It lacks a comprehensible story, and you won't need your Cliff Notes on the Greek myths. You get an idea of who the major players are, and then they spend a modest amount of time shouting laughable dialogue at one another while being all but forced off the screen by special effects." Audience reactions on the platform vary wildly; some RT reviewers have "Wrath of the Titans" logged as a 5-star watch or "overhated" as a blockbuster release. Others, meanwhile, describe it as "boring," "forgettable," "cliché" and a "total waste of my time." Not sold on "Wrath of the Titans" after reading those takes?

Disney Has Another Huge Hit at the Box Office. Is It Finally Time to Buy?
Walt Disney released a strong second-quarter report last month. Its newest film release, the live-action "Lilo and Stitch," just broke the record for the highest-grossing four-day Memorial Day opening weekend, It has five of the top-10 highest-grossing films domestically this year. 10 stocks we like better than Walt Disney › Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS) might be the top name in entertainment, but that doesn't automatically mean its stock is always in good shape. It's taken a pounding over the past few years as the company goes from one problem to the next, and it's down 44% from its all-time highs. Are things starting to stabilize? The company reported solid results for the 2025 fiscal second quarter (ended March 29), and its newest film release, the live-action Lilo and Stitch, had a fantastic opening weekend. Is now the time to buy on the rebound? Disney is a huge media and entertainment giant with many working pieces. Today, it divides its business into three segments: entertainment, sports, and experiences. Entertainment covers its content, including streaming, film releases, and network TV. Sports is its sports-related content, and experiences covers parks, as well as other experiences like cruises and resorts. When everything goes well, Disney is an unmatched powerhouse. But with so many moving parts, the whole gets weighed down by any disruption. Fortunately, in the most recently reported quarter, there was success all around. Total revenue was up 7% year over year, with increases in all three segments. Operating income more than doubled to $3.1 billion, driven by increases in streaming, which had been holding back profits for too long. Streaming subscriptions increased by 2.5 million from the previous quarter, and Disney+ is now firmly profitable and growing. Even linear networks, the traditional TV channels that are on the decline, managed a small operating profit increase in the quarter, and the weakest segment was sports, which reported a drop in operating income. Disney is still figuring out the sports piece as it transitions from a cable focus to a streaming one, and it recently said that it's offering ESPN as a full, direct-to-consumer offering starting this fall. It was just announced that Disney is acquiring popular sports show Inside the NBA, and it's aiming to keep its go-to status and attract paid viewers to the new venture. Disney felt some pressure with the Hollywood strikes two years ago, pushing back film production and delaying some releases. It bounced back last year, ending 2024 with the highest-grossing film worldwide, Inside Out 2, as well as the No. 3 spot, Moana 2, and the No. 6 spot, Mufasa: The Lion King. It's doing incredibly so far in 2025, with exactly half of the top 10 highest-grossing films domestically. The most recent release, Lilo and Stitch, came out on Memorial Day weekend and is already the second-highest-grossing film of the year, with $279 million in domestic box office sales. It shattered records to take in the highest four-day Memorial Day weekend sales ever, and it's already picked up more than $600 million in sales worldwide. Like Lilo and Stitch, many of the recent hits and upcoming releases depend on the well-worn Disney model of creating franchises and churning out content based on beloved characters. Every single one of its top 10 releases so far this year is a remake or sequel of sorts. Disney has another six films set to come out this year, of which only one is a new franchise. The other five include the third installment in the Avatar movies, and the first two Avatar movies hold the No. 1 and No. 3 spots for highest-grossing films ever. Incidentally, the No. 2 spot, Avengers: Endgame, belongs to a Disney franchise, too. Disney has many films already slated for release in 2026 and further out, including the fourth Avatar film, the next Frozen film, etc. These are almost guaranteed to be huge box office hits, and the creative teams spin these franchises into more content for streaming, as well as for use in products and theme parks. Disney is in a good place today, with a profitable streaming business, hit films, and an upcoming sports launch. It just announced a new round of layoffs, and although that could contain a warning, the market usually greets layoffs enthusiastically, since a leaner organization typically leads to a stronger bottom line. I wouldn't put too many eggs into Disney's basket yet, but where it's holding today, Disney looks like it's staged for a comeback, and its stock should reflect that.
