The Netflix film Uprising has achieved 3rd place on the platform’s Global Top 10 Non-English Film chart, accompanied by the release of behind-the-scenes and never-before-seen stills.

Set during the chaos of the Japanese invasions of Korea, Uprising tells the story of Jong Ryeo (Park Jung Min), the son of a powerful Joseon military family, and his servant Cheon Young (Kang Dong Won), who reunite as enemies—one as King Seonjo’s (Cha Seung Won) trusted officer, the other as a militia leader. Released on the 11th, the film quickly amassed 7.5 million views within just three days, securing its spot at 3rd on Netflix’s Global Non-English Film chart. It also claimed the No. 1 spot in South Korea and landed in the Top 10 across 58 countries, including France, Brazil, and Japan, showcasing its massive global appeal.

The film’s breathtaking visuals and emotional depth drew international praise. “An outstanding masterpiece with impressive action sequences and stunning visuals,” one reviewer noted. Another commented, “The blend of joy and sorrow, beauty and brutality, creates a powerful contrast.”

Major international outlets echoed the excitement. Deadline wrote, “Though the action scenes are artfully and expertly crafted, it’s the film’s thoughtful morality that lingers after the slightly underwhelming conclusion.” Pinkvilla added, “There is no breather, and no room for error as one after the other, hard-hitting scenes come right at you. Even with a run time of over two hours, every frame carries significant weight, progressing the film’s heartbreaking inspiration from reality.”

With widespread acclaim from critics and viewers alike, Uprising continues to dominate Netflix charts, building excitement worldwide.
