A 2012 fantasy sequel that critics largely rejected and audiences mostly forgot has surged to #7 on Netflix’s global chart, per FlixPatrol. Wrath of the Titans, directed by Jonathan Liebesman, is the follow-up to 2010’s Clash of the Titans and again stars Sam Worthington as Perseus, with Liam Neeson as Zeus and Ralph Fiennes as Hades, alongside Rosamund Pike, Bill Nighy and Edgar Ramírez.

And if you’re wondering how two of these were made, the original copy admitted it wasn’t sure either. The plot cranks up the mythology dial: the gods are losing power as humanity’s belief fades and the imprisoned Titan Kronos threatens to escape and destroy everything.

Perseus must assemble allies and descend into the underworld to stop the apocalypse. On release, Wrath of the Titans earned a 26% score on Rotten Tomatoes, with many critics calling it generic, overstuffed and visually chaotic.
