When it comes to new movies on Netflix, there always seems to be a new title taking over the conversation. The year kicked off with the action-packed Matt Damon and Ben Affleck movie The Rip, followed by the polarizing Kevin Hart-led comedy 72 Hours. Now, the streamer’s number one movie is hitting viewers right in the feels and leaving plenty of them an emotional wreck. The film? Tyler Perry’s Doing Life.
Doing Life is a dramatic story about survival, redemption and the power of second chances. The movie follows Anika (Naomi Baker), a former corrections officer and struggling single mom who is dealing with serious financial challenges while raising her baby and working toward a nursing degree. Her life takes an unexpected turn after she crosses paths with Carousel (Jay Reeves), an inmate who protects her during a violent prison riot.
