NetflixNetflix has quietly built a habit of finding breakout international action hits, and its latest addition has audiences making immediate comparisons to one of the genre’s biggest franchises. While theaters spent the past weekend dominated by heavyweights like ‘The Odyssey’ and ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day,’ streaming remained comparatively quiet, giving one action film plenty of room to hold onto its audience and stay among Netflix’s most-watched titles. That film is ‘The Debt Collector,’ a Thai action-thriller that arrived on the platform on July 23. Since its release, comparisons between ‘The Debt Collector’ and the ‘John Wick’ franchise have followed the film everywhere, with critics and outlets alike drawing parallels between its lethal, morally conflicted protagonist and Keanu Reeves’ iconic assassin. That connection to ‘John Wick’ has helped fuel genuine viewership momentum for the film.
