'Damsel' Is Netflix's Most Watched Movie of 2024, but It Doesn't Deserve It
MovieWebStory by Patricia Scheer-Erb
scrn logline
Millie Bobby Brown's star power fails to elevate 'Damsel', Netflix's most-watched 2024 movie that critics say doesn't deserve the hype.
beat sheet
- Despite Brown's popularity from 'Stranger Things', 'Damsel' only scored a 42% on Rotten Tomatoes, calling it a 'clichéd and predictable' fantasy flick.
- Netflix reportedly spent over $150 million on 'Damsel', making it one of their biggest investments of 2024, but it's unlikely to earn back that budget based on poor reviews.
