The Caribbean seas have produced a global streaming champion, with Priyanka Chopra’s pirate epic The Bluff topping worldwide OTT charts during the week of February 27 to March 5. The Prime Video film logged an estimated 300.3 million minutes of viewership, making it the most-watched original film across all streaming platforms. The achievement is a stunning testament to Chopra’s enduring global popularity.
The film follows Ercell Borden, a fishwife in a peaceful Caribbean community whose life is upended when her husband is kidnapped by the pirate Connor, played by Karl Urban. Forced out of hiding, Ercell resurrects her alter ego, the legendary Bloody Mary, and wages war against those who threaten her family. The film was directed by Frank E. Flowers and features a compelling ensemble cast.
The global streaming rankings place The Bluff at the top with 300.3 million minutes, followed by Accused on Netflix at 213.1 million minutes. The Netflix film stars Konkona Sen Sharma as a gynecologist facing serious professional allegations. Firebreak, Paul McCartney: Man on the Run, and The Wrecking Crew fill out the rest of the top five.
The film’s triumph is particularly noteworthy given that it was not universally praised by critics. Some felt the story was predictable, while others praised its visuals and action design. Yet the audience’s verdict was clear and emphatic, placing The Bluff at the absolute summit of global streaming viewership for the week.
Chopra’s fans have been vocal in their pride over the achievement, crediting her intense preparation and passion for the role. Many commented that the film was genuinely entertaining and well worth watching. The Bluff is now firmly established as one of the defining streaming events of early 2026.
