Netflix fans have just 7 days to watch highest rated Rotten Tomatoes movie ever

Netflix fans have just 7 days to watch highest rated Rotten Tomatoes movie ever

Daily Mirror7 days ago

One of the highest-rated movies of all time is about to leave Netflix in just a few weeks - so movie fans need to make sure they fit this one in before it's gone for good
You won't want to miss this perfect scoring movie before it's gone from Netflix - and you haven't got long left to watch this one, because it's going to be removed from the streaming service on June 30.
Managing to snag the elusive 100 percent score on movie review accumulator Rotten Tomatoes, Leave No Trace follows a father and daughter living deep in the forest, relying on survival skills to make it through - before they are dragged back into the real world with a jolt after being spotted by a member of the public.

The father Will, played by Ben Foster, suffers from PTSD after serving in the armed forces, and he and his daughter Tom - played by Thomasin McKenzie - struggle to adapt to normal life.

The film follows the twists and turns of their journey after being discovered by authorities living off the grid, exploring their relationship and love itself, without ever becoming overly sentimental - watch the trailer below.
The movie is leaving Netflix on 30 June - so you only have a week to heat up some popcorn and fire this one up, but you are unlikely to regret taking the time and spending an evening dedicated to watching this one.
Directed by Debra Granik, Leave No Trace was the hotly anticipated follow-up to Winter's Bone, which starred Jennifer Lawrence in her breakout role, and was released eight years before in 2010.
In between Granik scored another perfect 100 on Rotten Tomatoes for her documentary Stray Dogs, about dog-lover, motorbiker, and veteran Ron Hall.

The elusive 100 percent approval rating doesn't come along very often, only 68 films can claim the honour - and when you think about how many movies are released in the era of streaming, it makes the achievement seem all the more impressive.
Two offerings from 2024 have made the list, All We Imagine as Light by Payal Kapadia, and Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl.
Other famous movies that have managed a perfect score include 12 Angry Men, Toy Story, Two Story Two, Singin' in the Rain, Before Sunrise, Cool Hand Luke, The Terminator, and Pinocchio, amongst the most famous on the list.

Leave No Trace had 252 reviews, and they were resoundingly positive, with one reviewer writing: "Leave No Trace, in the biggest of ironies, leaves the greatest of traces upon us."
Another said, "Leave No Trace is further evidence Granik is one of the most talented directors around - and Ben Foster ranks among the finest and most intense actors working today."
A third wrote about the movie, "Granik is one of the most distinctive filmmaking voices we have; I'd love to see her make more features but I'm also glad she takes the time to do them right."

Meghan's As Ever jam is actually made in factory 2,000 miles from Montecito

Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, had claimed the first batches of her latest As Ever products, including her jam and £21-a-jar honey, had sold out within hours of release A jam Meghan Markle has released under her new brand As Ever is actually made 2,000 miles from her mansion. The pricey preserve is said to be "inspired by the recipe Meghan crafted in her home kitchen" and an Instagram video shows a fruity mixture bubbling in a pot at the duchess' Californian property. However, it has now been revealed the jam - which Meghan sells for £6.50 per jar - is produced in a factory in Illinois, some 2,000 miles from Montecito. ‌ It is actually manufactured by the same US giant which sells Meghan's £9 packs of herbal tea. It also makes her sold-out orange blossom honey, priced at £21-a-jar – although it is not known whether it manufactures her newly released apricot preserve. Meghan, 43, had claimed last week the first batches of the apricot preserve and other new treats had sold out within hours of release online. ‌ But one tough food critic told the media she felt the jam was "a real disappointment" upon reviewing the fruity spread. Donna Collins blasted the jam, describing it as "too runny" to work. And mother-of-two Meghan faces more scrutiny today after it has emerged The Republic of Tea, which produces the jam, is based 2,000 miles from Montecito, quite the contrast to the homely image the duchess has presented in marketing for the preserve. A source close to the duchess said in order to formulate the commercial product, As Ever started with the spread Meghan makes at home "and worked to develop a version of it that could be produced at scale". Meghan's website, though, describes her "signature" raspberry jam as "inspired by the recipe she made in her home kitchen" – and says it was deliberately crafted with a fluid texture". On her Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, she described harvesting berries and making small batches of jars in her kitchen, adding: "I did save one of 50 for my mom." However, a source close to Meghan has confirmed to the Daily Mail that The Republic of Tea makes her As Ever raspberry spread, but a new supplier would soon be used. The Republic of Tea's headquarters is in Larkspur, California, 350 miles from Meghan's mansion - but the factory in which the jam is said to be made is in Illinois, which is in the Midwestern United States. In a statement given to the Mail, Netflix said: "Netflix and As Ever take pride in working with best-in-class vendors that meet our high standards for exceptional products. It's been exciting to see how much fans have embraced the As Ever product line, with the first two launches selling out so quickly We're looking forward to continued success as we expand and release more As Ever product throughout the year and beyond."

New Netflix smash hit closes in on 100 million views to dominate global chart

Steve Charnock Published June 26, 2025 2:28pm Updated June 27, 2025 1:55pm Link is copied Comments There aren't many movies that very nearly clock up a sensational 100 million views on the streaming platform Netflix. There are even fewer than achieve that impressive feat in just three weeks. This week's global top 10 is dominated by such a film. Also making the list are a trio of fascinating Netflix Original documentaries, two about tragedies and one on a somewhat tragic figure. Plus there are the usual suspects of action movies and horrors. Here's the top 10 countdown... (Picture: Getty) Liam Hemsworth and Russell Crowe headline this gritty but fun military thriller that's set in the Philippines. Hemsworth plays a rookie armed forces type who's stranded behind enemy lines, while Crowe's character remotely guides him out via drone support. It's tense, loud and leans heavily on the classic lone soldier formula. Reviews have been pretty mixed, but the star power and steady action have clearly struck a chord with plenty of Netflix viewers (Picture: Netflix) This 2007 sequel to 28 Days Later wasn't directed by the original's Danny Boyle. It's darker, bloodier and arguably more brutal than the original, although not quite as good. With Robert Carlyle, Rose Byrne and Jeremy Renner caught in a government-led containment nightmare, it's a decent follow-up and one well worth watching if you've designs on catching the third film, 28 Years Later, in theaters soon. The opening sequence of this remains one of the most talked-about in modern horror (Picture: DNA Films/20th Century Fox) Sigourney Weaver and Holly Hunter star in this '90s psychological thriller that's aged surprisingly well. Alien star Weaver plays an agoraphobic serial killer expert helping police track down a copycat murderer. There's plenty of procedural business here, so it's no envelope pusher. But the performances and eerie mood hold up well. It's been a quiet Netflix hit that might owe its spike to the true crime crowd. Its highlight? A surprisingly deranged performance by crooner Harry Connick Jr. (Picture: Warner Br/Everett/REX/Shutterstock) This documentary takes on the late Rob Ford, the scandal-prone former mayor of Toronto, whose chaotic term included drug allegations, viral gaffes and a death-defying approval rating. Interviews and archival footage piece together a rise and fall that's both jaw-dropping and, at times, weirdly sympathetic. This isn't your typical political documentary. But then Rob Ford wasn't your typical politician (Picture: Toronto Star via Getty Images) Gerard Butler does what Gerard Butler does best here: survive in harsh circumstances and generally run about being an everyman hero. Here he's a commercial pilot who crash-lands in hostile territory and teams up with a fugitive (Mike Colter) to save passengers from a group of rather unpleasant insurgents. The title is wonderfully blunt, but the movie is tightly paced and exactly the kind of throwback action ride Netflix users seem to crave (Picture: Netflix) Covering the immediately-infamous 2023 Titan submersible implosion, this documentary film blends timeline reconstructions with expert interviews and just enough context to explore the hype, the tech and - ultimately - the tragedy. It's not overly sensationalized, but it doesn't pull its punches either. In fact, it makes for quite chilling watch, especially for those who followed the news in real time and remember the shocking story unfolding (Picture: Netflix) Bastien is an ex-MMA fighter who's haunted by having killed an opponent in the ring. Wracked with guilt and seeking a large serving of redemption, he agrees to assist the victim's grieving widow to locate her missing son. In doing so, Bastien has to go on a dicey journey that takes him into a murderous criminal underworld. Luckily for him - and us viewers - he's very, very good at beating people up. This fun French actioner's been doing very well for itself since release and was the third most-watch movie on Netflix last week (Picture: Laurent le Crabe/Netflix) This is the second Trainwreck documentary in the top 10, with the format clearly proving popular with Netflix subscribers. This one examines the fatal 2021 Travis Scott concert disaster in Houston. It looks at crowd dynamics, corporate accountability and fan testimonies, piecing together a disturbing picture of how things spiralled out of control, ending in death. It's, obviously, not a fun watch. But it is a vital one (Picture: Netflix) Animated chaos meets pop culture and fantasy in this stylish action in which a K-pop girl group moonlights as a gang of roving demon slayers. It's bold, neon-colored and fast-paced, perfect for fans of both anime and South Korean pop idols. The voice cast features a whole host of Korean and American talent. While it might perplex more casual viewers not interested in K-pop, Asian culture or fantasy - if you're into it? It's a riot (Picture: Netflix) With nearly double the views of its runner-up, STRAW is the breakout hit of 2025 that no one saw coming. Tyler Perry's latest psychological crime drama follows single mother Janiyah (Taraji P. Henson) whose life unravels in a single harrowing day. Pushed to extremes, she's driven by grief and sheer survival. A shocking twist really bolsters the film and provides a real emotional spine. Critics praise Henson's gut‑wrenching performance and emotional depth. It's a tense, emotional watch that sparked widespread acclaim and discussion. And now almost 100 million people have seen it overall (Picture: Netflix)
