One of the changes on Netflix’s Top 10 for this week, as of July 31, it’s that a new Mexican comedy, ‘Non Negotiable,’ has dethroned the romantic dramedy ‘Find Me Falling’ from the number 1 spot worldwide. That’s what reports FlixPatrol, a specialized website on streaming data.
‘Find Me Falling,’ starring Harry Connick Jr. and Agni Scott, follows former rock star John Allman, who moves to Cyprus to live a retired life. However, he discovers that the notoriety of his cliffside home attracts unwanted visitors, as well as an old flame, Sia.
While since its release on July 19, ‘Find Me Falling’ had been the number one movie on Netflix, now the comedy ‘Non Negotiable’ has stolen that spot. So, here’s what to know about this film which is making waves on the streaming platform.
‘Non Negotiable’ is now the top film on Netflix worldwide
‘Non Negotiable’ follows Alan Bender, Mexico’s top hostage negotiator, whose devotion to his job leads him to neglect his wife, Victoria. When they start couples therapy, Alan learns that Victoria is having an affair with his personal trainer, Nico.
The plot thickens when Alan receives an urgent call: the President of Mexico and his wife have been kidnapped. As he dives into the case, the kidnapper also takes Victoria and Nico hostage, thrusting Alan into a high-stakes situation where he must navigate his professional duties and personal turmoil.
The film is directed by Argentinian filmmaker and screenwriter Juan Taratuto, who is celebrated for several of his titles, including his iconic comedies ‘I Married a Dumbass’ and ‘A Boyfriend for My Wife.’
Also, ‘Non Negotiable’ has a star-studded cast such as Mauricio Ochmann, Tato Alexander, Geraldine Zinat, Fernanda Borches, and Enoc Leaño, among others. Apart from being one of the most watched movies on Netflix, it has also received positive reviews.
