Amid no new content owing to SAG-AFTRA strikes, under-rated gems are rising up the charts on Netflix such as this Robert de Niro starrer.

A Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, and Morgan Freeman&#8217;s Star-Studded Comedy Is Surging Ahead on Netflix Charts

Once upon a time, as Hollywood was on its way to becoming the entertainment
capital of the world, several talented names took the lead. Taking the helm of
different genres at different times, many have come and left their marks behind.
When Arnold Schwarzenegger

were redefining action, veterans such as Robert De Niro and Al Pacino led the
other fronts.

A decade-old flick involving such A-list greats went quite below the expected
mark upon its release. However, it is now once again beaming back to life thanks
to Netflix.


THE VETERAN STAR-STUDDED FLICK THAT IS HOGGING VIEWS ON NETFLIX

Lights, glitz, and the city of sin are what define Las Vegas. A city that has
forever enamored visions and adventures of bachelorhood has also served as a
backdrop for many Hollywood movies. In 2013, director Jon Turteltaub amassed
veterans Robert De Niro, Michael Douglas, Morgan Freeman, Kevin Kline, and Mary
Steenburgen to take over the city in his movie, Las Vegas. While it moderately
underperformed for its cast back then, it has now climbed up to No. 8 on
Netflix’s Top 10 charts. [https://www.netflix.com/tudum/top10]



The movie revolved around retired friends who traveled to Vegas for the bachelor
party of the sole remaining one among them. Revolving around all the flair and
glare of the city, Las Vegas also addressed the usual getting into trouble in
Vegas. Claiming $134 million worldwide on its budget of $28 million, the movie
fell short of critical appreciation. With a rating of 46% on Rotten Tomatoes, it
was said to be predictable and over-the-top. However, as the recent Netflix
ratings show, it certainly is enjoyable.

flicks.


STRIKE-HIT NETFLIX KEEPS REFRESHING AND UPDATING ITS MOVIE CATALOG

Under crippling pressure owing to lack of production thanks to the ongoing
SAG-AFTRA strikes, Netflix has to keep adding movies to its repertoire. As Las
Vegas becomes the latest hidden gem to surge in popularity, the streaming giant
has acquired many such movies recently. Fresh off, it recently brought over
Elizabeth Olsen starrer,

Three Daughters, straight from the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival.



It itself came on the backs of Richard Linklater’s Glen Powell starrer,

Man. Meanwhile, its own shows such as Stranger Things
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/stranger-things/] and The Witcher
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/] are yet to take off shooting for
their incumbent seasons. Even though WGA has lit a green light, the actor’s
union’s negotiations are still underway. In the meantime, fans can tune in to
watch Las Vegas.
