The Rock Has Another Movie in the Netflix Top 10 and it's One Nobody Expected

By Charlie Ridgely

As we've learned time and time again over the last couple of years, Netflix subscribers love The Rock. Dawyne Johnson has had multiple movies make major waves on Netflix over the last few months. Johnson and Kevin Hart's Central Intelligence was a huge hit in global Netflix markets after it was added earlier this year, and the original film Red Notice was Netflix's biggest movie of all time. Now, Johnson has yet another movie climbing up the Netflix charts, and it's one that some fans may have forgotten about.

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, the 2012 Warner Bros. sequel to Journey to the Center of the Earth, was added to Netflix at the start of 2022. Despite receiving lackluster reviews at the time of its release a decade ago, and being largely ignored in the years since, Journey 2 has found itself a new audience on Netflix.

Monday's edition of the Netflix Top 10 shows Journey 2 in the seventh overall spot, up from the eighth position on Sunday. It's the third-most popular movie on Netflix, behind only Netflix original films Don't Look Up and The Lost Daughter.
