Prime Video’s new action movie, G20<\/strong><\/a>, has hit a record-breaking viewership milestone despite receiving mixed critical reviews. Led by Viola Davis (Suicide Squad) and directed by Patricia Riggen, the action thriller debuted on the streaming platform on April 10 and ranked No.1 on Nielsen’s movie chart during its first week.<\/p>\n

Starring Anthony Starr, Anthony Anderson, Marsai Martin, Ram\u00f3n Rodr\u00edguez, Douglas Hodge, Elizabeth Marvel, and Sabrina Impacciatore, among others, G20’s plot<\/a> revolves around a critical situation where terrorists have taken over a G20 conference venue. Davis’ President Sutton has to rely on her governing and military skills to safeguard her family and the world.<\/p>\n

According to Deadline<\/a>, G20 has garnered more than 50 million viewers since its debut on April 10<\/strong>, which makes it one of Amazon MGM Studios’ 10 most-watched action films of all time on the platform. This puts Davis’ new action movie among popular titles like The Beekeeper, Road House, The Last Samurai, Uncharted, and many more.<\/p>\n

What This Means For G20<\/p>\n

G20 Draws A Crowd Despite Mixed Reviews<\/p>\n

G20 is far from being critically acclaimed. Since its release, its critical Rotten Tomatoes score has dropped from 58% to 56%. On the audience side, the action thriller also failed to secure a fresh score, currently sitting at a 46% approval rate. Even though many have lodged issues due to its lack of realism and seriousness, Davis’ performance has consistently been mentioned as one of the best features the movie has to offer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Viola Davis’s G20 is an action-packed heroic ride, and for fans of political action thrillers, there are a few great ones to check out next.<\/p>\n

It seems that the mixed and slightly negative reception didn’t stop the movie from achieving streaming success. As ScreenRant’s review for G20<\/a> pointed out, the movie has an appealing premise and strong cast<\/strong>, which serve as audience magnets for those looking for an entertaining action movie that will attract their attention.<\/p>\n

Our Take On G20’s Streaming Success<\/p>\n

Viola Davis Shines In G20<\/p>\n

Davis has a track record<\/a> of delivering powerful and versatile performances<\/strong>. She has received critical acclaim for portraying strong female roles, including Nanisca in The Woman King, Annalise Keating in How to Get Away with Murder, and Ma Rainey in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, which makes her performance as President Sutton highly anticipated.<\/p>\n

Despite not being critically acclaimed, G20 sees Davis in another powerful role and offers a twist to a classic spy setting<\/strong>. This time, instead of the president being the one to be saved, President Sutton takes the initiative and shields her loved ones from threats. The movie’s consistent streaming success further suggests that it delivers something viewers are looking for, even though the reviews may suggest otherwise.<\/p>\n
