Under Paris proves that Netflix can offer what movie theaters have abandoned

At this point, some skeptics might think I’m fighting for Under Paris, Netflix, or maybe both. However, I’m not here to tell you that it’s a perfect movie and I’m certainly I’m not here to tell you that Netflix is ​​a perfect streamer. However, Netflix went out of its way to produce, promote, and feature a blockbuster original action film, which got me thinking about the fact that we haven’t had a reliable stream of original action films in theaters since the 90s.

What does “original” mean in this case? Simple: major blockbusters that aren’t sequels, prequels, or reboots and aren’t based on comic books or video games. Movie fans often lament that modern studios are afraid to finance original film concepts. This hesitation really came into its own around the new millennium, making the ’90s the last real hurray for original action blockbusters.
