“Rewind,” the highest-grossing Filipino film to date starring Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera, has achieved yet another milestone by swiftly ascending to the number one spot on Netflix’s Top 10 movies in the Philippines and multiple Middle Eastern countries just a day after its debut on the platform.
As of its premiere on Netflix last Monday (March 25), this Metro Manila Film Festival 2023 entry has dominated the top 10 movies not only in the Philippines but also in Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and the UAE, according to data provided by streaming analytics site FlixPatrol.
The compelling drama has also captivated audiences worldwide, securing its place among the top 10 movies on Netflix in Canada, Hong Kong, Malta, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, and Singapore.
Directed by Mae Cruz-Alviar, “Rewind” tells the story of John (portrayed by Dingdong), who receives an extraordinary chance to turn back time and rescue the woman he loves, Mary (played by Marian). Produced by Star Cinema, APT Entertainment, and AgostoDos Pictures, the film has garnered widespread acclaim for its engaging narrative and stellar performances.
The movie’s resounding success has earned it praise from the Philippine Senate, notably through Sen. Robin Padilla’s Senate Resolution 909, which recognizes its significant contribution to the revitalization of the local film industry.
“Rewind” is now available for streaming on Netflix worldwide, inviting audiences from across the globe to experience its gripping storyline and poignant moments.
