Christmas movies are overrated. Why not spend the holidays with a film full of sociopaths instead? That was Netflix’s gamble when they released Martin Scorsese’s latest offering on their streaming platform in December. According to them, 26 million people have streamed the movie to date. Clearly, the gamble paid off. Scorsese has made a lot of features in his 50+ years of filmmaking, but he’ll always be best known for his mob movies.

The ninth film from Quentin Tarantino is now playing, and it’s filled to the brim with everything you love or hate about his movies.
