No Cereal for You! Jerry Seinfeld's 'Unfrosted' Goes Largely Unwatched — Netflix Weekly Rankings for April 29-May 5

The Jerry Seinfeld-directed comedy Unfrosted took the top spot among Netflix’s weekly English-language film rankings , but with just 11.3 million engagement hours and 7.1 million account views, the star-studded movie had the worst showing for a No. 1 film by the streaming company since it began ranking audience performance by account views in June 2023.

Despite the lukewarm critical reception ,  the bombing of Seinfeld's directorial debut comes with at least some surprise, just considering the sheer comedy-star power of the film, which casted alongside Seinfeld Melissa McCarthy, Hugh Grant, Jim Gaffigan, John Hamm, Max Greenfield, Dan Levy, Bill Burr and Cedric the Entertainer, just to name a few well-known performers.

The whimsical, early-60s-set period comedy themed around the creation of Pop-Tarts failed to capitalize on the product-oriented film craze created by titles like Barbie and Air.
