Also, don’t forget to browse through all the awesome movies and series that will be leaving Netflix in September — there are some fantastic titles on the list, so be sure to watch them before they’re gone.

Of course, before you can really focus on September’s new releases, you need to make sure that you didn’t miss anything big in August — and the best way to do that is to take a look at the newly-released top 10 lists for movies and shows here in the United States as well as around the world.

Now that August 2020 is behind us, so we turn to FlixPatrol to see all the most popular movies and shows from the full month. The site tracks all of Netflix’s charts on a daily basis and uses that data to determine the most popular shows by chart position and duration on the charts. Since Netflix doesn’t release official data by month, this is the closest thing we have to official Netflix viewing trends.

Here in the US, the #1 movies of August will come as a surprise to no one. That’s right, it’s Project Power. This big-budget thriller starring Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon-Levitt spent more time at the top of the charts than any other film by a wide margin. Other movies on August’s top 10 list include The Lost Husband, Drunk Parents, and Jurassic Park, which is leaving Netflix’s catalog at the end of the month. Where series are concerned, it’s also not very surprising that The Umbrella Academy topped the charts last month since season 2 was released recently. Interestingly, the #1 movie and #1 show in the US on this month’s lists also happened to top the international charts in August 2020.
