Some Netflix original films get a ton of publicity ahead of their release; films like Red Notice, Don’t Look Up, or The Christmas Chronicles. Others, however, seem to arrive on the streaming service with very little warning. Despite virtually no promotion in the lead-up to their debuts, a few of these films find a way through the cracks and become popular with subscribers all on their own. Two such movies are currently topping the Netflix popularity charts.

The Royal Treatment, a romantic comedy starring Laura Marano and Mena Massoud, has been holding steady in the number one spot on the Netflix Top 10 Movies list for a while now. On Tuesday, however, another original film soared into the top two. Munich โ The Edge of War, a historical thriller about the 1938 Munich Conference, is slowly catching on with viewers around the country.
Munich occupied the fifth movie spot on Monday’s edition of the Top 10 list. It shot up to second in the movies rankings just a day later, and 10th in the overall Netflix ranks (which counts both shows and movies). It will likely spend the next few days battling it out with The Royal Treatment for Netflix movie supremacy.
