Underrated Liam Neeson Movie Debuts on Netflix Top 10

By Charlie Ridgely

The early months of 2022 brought another in a long line of Liam Neeson action movies, which have essentially become their own subgenre at this point. That film, Blacklight, was obliterated by critics and hardly seen by anyone. Blacklight didn't work, but that doesn't mean the love of Neeson and his specific brand of action has diminished at all. One of the more underrated Neeson thrillers was recently added to Netflix and it has been making a name for itself on the streamer's lineup.

Earlier this week, Netflix added A Walk Among the Tombstones to its streaming roster. The 2014 film is one of Neeson's darkest turns of the last decade or so, playing an ex-cop digging for hard truths in New York's underbelly. Despite receiving mixed reviews and very small returns at the box office, A Walk Among the Tombstones has steadily received more fans over the years as people have given it a second look. Of course, it helps that the film boasts an all-star supporting cast that includes Dan Stevens, Boyd Holbrook, and David Harbour.

After arriving on Netflix, A Walk Among the Tombstones has risen to the eighth overall spot on Thursday's Top 10 list, passing some popular Netflix originals on the way. While it sits in the eighth position overall, Tombstones is currently the second-most popular film on the service.
