Last year's "Uncut Gems," which has been praised for a dramatic Adam Sandler performance, landed on Netflix this week and it's one of the streamer's most watched movies. But it's still not the most popular Sandler movie this week.

Netflix introduced daily top 10 lists of its most viewed movies and TV shows in February (it counts a view if an account watches at least two minutes of a title).

Every week, the streaming search engine Reelgood compiles for Business Insider a list of which movies have been most prominent on Netflix's daily lists that week. On Reelgood, users can browse Netflix's entire movie library and sort by IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes ratings.

The Netflix original comedy, "The Wrong Missy," continued to perform well this week, but another Netflix original rom-com topped the list.
