As the end of the year draws near, audiences love to check out the best Christmas movies on Netflix — some of which have seen their debuts on the 2022 Netflix movies release schedule already. However, the best movies on Netflix (as well as the best TV shows on Netflix) that appear on the Netflix Top 10 tend to be a little more diverse, even in a specifically festive time like this. See for yourself by browsing through this breakdown of what made it on to Netflix’s trending page (opens in new tab) each day of December 2022 below.
Netflix Top 10 For Friday, December 2, 2022
A new monster hit stomped out the rest of the competition on the Netflix Top 10 on Friday, December 2, 2022. However, it was not the only new title to boast among the platform’s most popular movies and TV shows this day.

The new Norwegian action-fantasy Troll — which has no connection to Netflix’s animated Trolls TV show — made a gargantuan debut, immediately placing first on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies in the U.S., which also saw the addition of a more grounded action thriller called Sniper: Rogue Mission coming in at Number Nine. Meanwhile, former champion The Noel Diary became the list’s sole holiday movie, audiences checked out Take Your Pills: Xanax (which ascended three pegs), and Southpaw took a slight tumble from third place to sixth.

Netflix Top 10 Movies For Thursday, December 1, 2022
The dawn of a new month does not always bring a new batch of titles trending on the Netflix Top 10. However, that was certainly not the case for Thursday, December 1, 2022… at least for the platform’s most popular movies, which included a gritty crime thriller, an informative health documentary, and a new holiday comedy.
Netflix Top 10 Movies For Thursday, December 1, 2022
Days after it started trending on Netflix in November 2022, Southpaw achieved a “one-two-three punch” by surpassing Slumberland, Ghislaine Maxwell: Filthy Rich, and The Swimmers. Yet, it still came in just third place underneath The Noel Diary — still at Number One despite its troubling ending — and new Italian revenge thriller, My Name is Vendetta. Also new on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies in the U.S. in seventh place was Take Your Pills: Xanax — a follow-up to a 2018 doc that, this time, focuses on the commonly used sedative — and another holiday comedy — this one from Brazil — called Christmas Full of Grace at the bottom.
