Czech streaming charts Dec. 1-7: ‘Ballerina’ dances to the top of the charts for Canal+

Ballerina, the John Wick spinoff starring Ana de Armas and Keanu Reeves, was the most popular movie on Czech streaming services over the past week according to aggregator JustWatch. The high-octane action film, which was largely filmed in Prague and other locations in the Czech Republic, is now streaming on Canal+ and is also available to rent on Apple TV.

Heading into the holidays, modern Christmas classics continue to chart well in Czechia. 2003’s Love Actually, streaming locally on OnePlay, was the second most-popular title over the past week, while Home Alone came in third for Disney+. The 2018 animated version of The Grinch came in fifth after charting at fourth the previous week.

A brand-new Christmas film didn’t fare quite as well. The family comedy Oh. What. Fun., which stars Michelle Pfeiffer as a put-upon mom who escapes her unloving family over the holidays, charted at seventh for Prime Video.

Until Dawn, director David F. Sandberg‘s gory adaptation of the popular Sony video game, came in fourth in its streaming debut on HBO Max. Despite an innovative time loop premise, the film doesn’t do much with its usual story of a group of stranded friends getting hacked up at a mysterious cabin in the woods.

The Roses, a remake of the 1980s classic The War of the Roses, came in sixth in its streaming debut on Disney+. The bitter black comedy stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman as a pair of British expats in California whose marriage comes to a bloody end.

Last week’s chart-topping features Train Dreams and The Fantastic Four: First Steps rounded out this week’s top 10 for Netflix and Disney+, respectively.

Unsurprisingly, Stranger Things held its position at the top of the Czech charts over the past week among TV series according to JustWatch, after dropping the first four episodes of its fifth season last weekend. Look for it to hold its position as Czechia’s most popular TV series through the holiday season as the remaining episodes drop by the end of the year.

Pluribus, the latest series from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul creator Vince Gilligan, rose back up from sixth to second in Czech streaming charts. The sci-fi series starring Rhea Seehorn has benefited from rave reviews, and has released six episodes with new installments dropping on Fridays for Apple TV+.

German-language global hit Maxton Hall – The World Between Us continues to chart high in Czech charts weeks after completing its six-episode second season, coming in third. The young adult romance is Prime Video’s biggest non-English-language series.

Future Man, the sci-fi cult hit that ran on Hulu in the States from 2017-2020, is now streaming on Netflix in the Czech Republic and surged up to fourth in last week’s charts. The three-season series may also have gotten a boost from star Josh Hutcherson, whose Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is currently raking it in at the global box office.

The HBO Max horror prequel It: Welcome to Derry continues to hold strong in fifth in Czech charts. The first seven episodes of the series, based on the work of Stephen King, are now streaming, with the eighth and final episode dropping on Sunday (Monday morning, Prague time).

With anticipation building ahead of the release of its second season, Fallout surged back up to sixth in local charts among TV series. The Prime Video adaptation of the popular series of video games from creator Jonathan Nolan will debut its second season on Dec. 17.
