Netflix’s global weekly movie chart puts UNABOMBER at No. 1 for September 28–October 4, 2026, with 24.9 million reported views. The list below is a current, reproducible snapshot—not a ranking of every movie across every streaming service, nor a measure of quality. Availability varies by country.
Netflix’s top 10 movies this week
Netflix’s global Top 10 Movies chart ranks films by reported viewing during the week of September 28–October 4, 2026. Netflix reports views and hours viewed for that period; the figures are not lifetime totals.

| 1 | UNABOMBER | 24.9 million | 41.5 million | 1 hour 40 minutes |
| 2 | The Widower: ‘Til Death Do Us Part | 11.6 million | 17.8 million | 1 hour 32 minutes |
| 3 | Doing Life | 9.3 million | 16.8 million | 1 hour 48 minutes |

Why another trending-movie chart may have a different No. 1
“Trending” depends on what a chart counts. Netflix’s list is a weekly measure of viewing on Netflix, while discovery services can rank activity across multiple streaming offers and over shorter, rolling windows. Those lists answer different questions, so their positions should not be combined into one ranking.
#1 Best Overall
- The Help (Three-Disc Combo: Blu-ray/DVD + Digital Copy)
| Chart | Scope and geography | Time window and signal | Snapshot |
|---|---|---|---|
| Netflix Top 10 | Netflix global weekly chart | Reported weekly views and hours viewed | UNABOMBER led September 28–October 4, 2026 |
| JustWatch Streaming Chart | U.S. country chart; JustWatch says its charts cover 140 countries and 4,500 services | Activity over the previous 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days; actions include clicking a streaming offer, adding a title to a watchlist, or marking it as seen | Backrooms ranked first when checked October 8, 2026 |
| FlixPatrol worldwide chart | Worldwide daily VOD charts; FlixPatrol describes coverage across 1,033 platforms and 167 countries | Daily platform-chart positions | The global Netflix-movies list began with Doing Life, Ice Age, and UNABOMBER when checked October 8, 2026 |
JustWatch says its charts are updated daily and are based on user activity; its published methodology describes activity across the last 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days. Its first-place title can therefore differ from Netflix’s weekly leader without either chart being wrong. Check the JustWatch U.S. chart and methodology, or view FlixPatrol’s worldwide charts.
How to find where a trending movie is streaming
- Choose the chart that matches your question. Use Netflix’s weekly list to see what is drawing views on Netflix, or a country-specific discovery chart to compare current activity across services.
- Check the title in your own country. Netflix notes that some titles may not be available in every region, and streaming rights can differ by market. A global ranking does not guarantee local access.
- Verify the current offer before settling on a movie. Use a streaming guide such as the JustWatch U.S. chart to check the listed services, then confirm availability in the service itself. The linked JustWatch page is for the United States; select the correct country when using its charts elsewhere.
How to use a trending list to choose what to watch
Popularity is a useful discovery signal, not a recommendation tailored to your taste. Once you find a title that is available to you, check its description, genre, runtime, and any suitability information that matters to your household before starting it. The chart provides runtimes, but it does not establish plot details, age suitability, or review quality.
Rank #2
For a documentary-focused shortlist, the Netflix chart includes UNABOMBER, The Widower: ‘Til Death Do Us Part, Doing Life, The Breadwinner, and The Whisper Man; the chart alone does not establish each title’s format or documentary status. Check the individual listing before assuming a movie is a documentary.
