Fan-Favorite Kevin Hart Movie Is One of the Biggest Movies on Netflix

Kevin Hart's Ride Along is soaring through the Netflix Top 10.

By Charlie Ridgely

Kevin Hart has been a hit with Netflix subscribers over the years. The beloved comedian had made multiple original films with the streaming service, each of them performing well in their own right. Hart's face on a poster grabs the attention of Netflix users. That also seems to apply to the actor's films that didn't originate on Netflix. Whenever one of Hart's comedies is added to the Netflix lineup, it usually finds its way onto the streamer's top 10 lists.

Such is the case for the hit 2014 comedy Ride Along, in which Hart stars along rapper-turned-actor Ice Cube. Hart plays the future brother-in-law of an Atlanta cop and decides to sign up for the police academy to impress his soon-to-be family. 

Ride Along was a big success at the box office back in 2014, grossing more than $154 million and spawning a sequel. Despite being nearly a decade old, that success has followed Ride Along to Netflix. After being added to the service this past week, Ride Along has already risen through Netflix's Top 10 Movies list. Wednesday's edition of the list sees Ride Along in the second overall spot, behind only Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. Ride Along even topped the new Netflix original movie Bird Box Barcelona.
