Netflix viewers praise ‘criminally underrated’ Sandra Bullock film as it takes number one spot

Netflix streamers are calling a newly added Sandra Bullock film ‘criminally underrated’ as it takes the number one spot in Netflix's Top 10.

The 2022 comedy follows reclusive romance novelist Loretta Page (Bullock) on a book tour with her cover model (Channing Tatum), as the pair get swept up in a kidnapping attempt in the jungle.

Brad Pitt also stars in the film as a contractor hired to help rescue Loretta who is abducted by billionaire villain (Daniel Radcliffe).

At nearly two hours long, the Paramount film scores well on Rotten Tomatoes, with a solid 79 percent critics' score and an 83 percent audience score.

Can't argue with that!

The movie has jumped ahead of a number of Netflix originals in the Top 10, including Kevin Hart's Lift and Daniel Kaluuya’s The Kitchen.

Others were really impressed with Radcliffe's supervillain role as Abigail Fairfax.

And after seeing him in The Lost City, fans think he'd be perfect in another role - with many saying Radcliffe could make a great future Bond villain, joining the ranks of Mads Mikkelsen, Javier Bardem and Christoph Waltz.

One fan said: "Using Daniel Radcliffe as the small guy with the Hitler complex is genius and he plays this role really well."

A second wrote: "Daniel Radcliffe was fantastic... he and Brad Pitt give fantastic performances."

A third added: "Daniel Radcliffe grows through the movie and is actually better the nastier he gets... I sense a Bond villain in him one day."

Another said: "After seeing Daniel Radcliffe's villain roles in Now You See Me 2 and The Lost City, I am sure that he can do a badass Bond Villain in future."
