Netflix has plenty of TV series and films. Some of them are quite amazing, while others failed to impress the audience. In recent years, the platform has focused on developing the original content, including actor Chris Hemsworth’s action thriller film Extraction. The movie is one of the biggest Netflix Originals movies, according to the data. Some of the Netflix films received critical acclaim; however, the Cannes Film Festival has banned the Netflix film from participating in the competition.

Some of Netflix’s contents are masterpieces, while others left the critics scratching their heads. In this article, we tried to list down a few worst Netflix movies according to Rotten Tomatoes.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny, 20%

The film is also the sequel to the 2000 movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. It stars Harry Shum Jr., Donnie Yen, Roger Yuan, Michelle Yeoh, Jason Scott Lee, Eugenia Yuan, and Woon Young Park.

The movie received many Academy Award nominations and won four of them. The plot of the film follows Yu Shu Lien, eighteen years of solitude warrior-maiden. She emerges from her retirement and travels to Perking. In the forest, Lien’s carriage is attacked by some warriors, and she bravely fights with them. The rest of the plot follows her on her journey.

Michelle Yeoh gave a fantastic performance in the film, and her fight scenes are incredible. However, the plot feels a little underwhelming and hence fails to impress the audience. It received a 20% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 35 reviews with an average rating of 5.15/10. The film scored 47 out of 100 on Metacritic.

The Kissing Booth, 17%
