Netflix's latest action film, 'Apex', has emerged as a significant hit, garnering over 110 million views within its first five weeks of release. The film, featuring Charlize Theron and Taron Egerton, follows a grieving adventurer battling a deranged stalker in the Australian outback. To secure a spot in Netflix's all-time top 10, 'Apex' must surpass 138 million views, currently held by the fantasy film 'Damsel'.

The film has received mixed reviews, reflected in its 66% critics' score and a concerning 44% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes, which could hinder its ability to maintain viewership momentum.
