Stillwater reportedly climbs streaming charts again: fresh attention, no clear proof

Matt Damon’s 2021 drama Stillwater has reportedly climbed back into the streaming and VOD Top 10 over the past few days. It’s drawing fresh attention again, even if there’s still no clear public evidence of a wider breakout.

Right now, the main charts and the analytics people usually cite don’t show exactly where Stillwater is trending, or how strong that rise really is. So the safest read is simple: people are talking about a rebound, but it hasn’t been fully pinned down in public data.

What we do know for sure is that the movie already had one real revival on Netflix. In January 2024, Stillwater made Netflix’s Global Top 10 with 12.7 million hours watched, which Netflix’s own Global Top 10 data translated to 5.5 million views.

For a movie that had only a modest theatrical run, that’s a pretty big second life. And with Damon back in view because of The Rip and Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, some viewers may be circling back to older titles.

Tom McCarthy directed Stillwater, which follows an Oklahoma oil worker who heads to Marseille after his daughter is jailed for murder. Reviews leaned positive, especially when it came to Damon’s performance. Still, some critics weren’t sold on the pacing or the movie’s tonal shifts, and the Amanda Knox controversy continues to shape the way people see it.

If you tend to keep up with Matt Damon’s dramas, this reported uptick is something to keep an eye on. You can always check your local streaming and VOD platforms to see whether it’s available.
