Bruce Willis' 1993 action thriller 'Striking Distance' has made a surprising comeback, now ranking as the No. 3 most-watched movie on Netflix in the United States. Originally considered a box office flop, the film's resurgence can be linked to the nostalgia for gritty 1990s action films and the convenience of streaming, allowing new audiences to discover it. The film, directed by Rowdy Herrington, features Willis as a Pittsburgh detective investigating police corruption and a serial killer. Despite a strong cast including Sarah Jessica Parker and Tom Sizemore, the production faced difficulties, including heavy reshoots that inflated its budget to around $30 million. Ultimately, it grossed $77 million globally, which was deemed underwhelming for a Bruce Willis-led film at the time. The renewed interest in Willis' work, especially following his retirement due to health issues, has contributed to the film's unexpected popularity on streaming platforms.
