We love when an underdog finds a fanbase and earns quality time in the Netflix charts. So we’re happy the action-packed thriller Blood & Gold is still the movie to beat this week for four weeks running.

Netflix Synopsis

“Spring 1945. Blood & Gold is set in the final days of the Second World War, telling the story of the German deserter Heinrich (Robert Maaser), the young and courageous farmer Elsa (Marie Hacke) – and a whole host of Nazis. On his way home from the front to his daughter, Heinrich stumbles into the clutches of a marauding SS troop. Their leader (Alexander Scheer) leaves him hanging in a tree. But he is saved at the last minute by Elsa, who hides him on her farm. Meanwhile, the SS is searching for a Jewish treasure hidden in a nearby village, meeting bitter resistance from the fed-up villagers, who want to keep the treasure for themselves. Soon, Heinrich and Elsa are unwillingly dragged into this action-packed hunt for the gold, culminating in a bloody showdown at the village church.”

Enthusiastic fans have kept the movie in the charts for four consecutive weeks. And they just cannot help comparing it to Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds.

See what Twitter is saying about Blood and Gold:

Blood and Gold on Netflix ain’t bad. It could have been 75 minutes and epic. That said, I enjoyed it and there are some great action sequences. Have a gander.

Streaming movies usually aren’t great, but there’s a German one called Blood and Gold on @netflix that’s one of my favorite releases of 2023 so far. Great action, perfectly paced with a quick 90 minute runtime, and a tone reminiscent of Golden Age westerns. Highly recommend it.

Blood and Gold on Netflix is a good watch.

Just caught “Blood and Gold” on @Netflix.

Wonderfully silly and gruesome romp through end stages of WW2. Brutal, honest and occasionally (perhaps unintentionally) rather funny. The charming climax is just great though.

Blood and Gold on Netflix. A German Tarantino. Violent and fun — if you like dead Nazis. Which I do.

If you can handle violence in your viewing, I HIGHLY recommend Blood and Gold on Netflix.

Tarantino-esque western set in a German village in the waining days of the war.

Loads of it tracks with history and the comeuppances were satisfying to anyone exposed to that history.

German film Blood And Gold on Netflix. Cross between a Clint Eastwood spaghetti western and a Tarantino flick. Bad Nazis looking for gold. Enjoyed it! pic.twitter.com/WGt36NsdPi
