The Garfield Movie may not have received great reviews when it hit theaters earlier this year, but Sony’s animated adaptation of the iconic comic strip performed pretty well at the box office, earning more than $257 million across the globe. That success has continued into the world of streaming.

Sunday’s edition of the Netflix Top 10 Movies list sees The Garfield Movie rise straight to the top of the daily movie rankings, surpassing recent Netflix hits like Uglies and Rebel Ridge.
