A Netflix original film, acclaimed by critics, falls short of claiming the top spot on the platform’s Top Ten charts. They Cloned Tyrone, despite receiving glowing reviews from critics, currently holds the third position out of ten.
With an exceptional cast including Jamie Foxx, John Boyega, and Teyonah Parris, this sci-fi comedy currently boasts an impressive 92 percent certified fresh score on the Tomatometer and a remarkable 100 percent audience score. However, it seems that these accolades have not been enough to attract a large viewership, as it currently sits in third place during its debut week.
They Cloned Tyrone had a limited theatrical release starting from June 14 before making its way to Netflix on July 21. This later release date meant that it had to compete with Oppenheimer and Barbie, which were also released on the same day, enticing audiences to head to theaters instead of streaming it online. Since its release on the platform, the film has garnered 6.3 million views with approximately 13.1 million hours watched. In front of it is the documentary film Unknown: Cave of Bones with 6.5 million views, and in first place is The Out-Laws, starring Pierce Brosnan, Nina Dobrev, Ellen Barkin, and Adam Devine, with 12.1 million views.
However, They Cloned Tyrone is definitely not a film to be missed. With an exceptional performance from an all-star cast, the story takes place in an economically depressed Black neighborhood in America, where an unlikely trio discovers that the government has been conducting secret experiments on them from an underground bunker. The film pays homage to and explores the Blaxploitation genre, with a hilarious moment in the trailer where Foxx’s character aggressively knocks their fast food out of their hands, exclaiming, “It’s in the f**king chicken.”
You can now catch this clever and hilarious film available for streaming on Netflix.
