Netflix has proven time and time again that it's the place to go whenever you're after your latest crime thriller fix.

From Richard Gadd's harrowing Baby Reindeer to the chilling '10/10' true crime series, The Asunta Case, it's clear we have a whole stockpile of viewing material in the genre.

And it's clear there's one more 'underrated' must-watch crime flick on the streaming platform which viewers are hailing as the 'best film they’ve ever seen'.

The film in question first hit our screens back in 2017 and boasts a star-studded cast including the likes of Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Jon Bernthal and Lake Bell.

The plot follows the transformation of a well-to-do family man and once-successful businessman, Jacob Harlon (played by Coster-Waldau), who becomes a hardened prison gangster.

Jacob has to undergo the major transformation in order to survive California's penal system after he is incarcerated for his role in a deadly DUI car accident.

After being recently released from prison, Jacob finds himself forced by his leaders to 'orchestrate a brazen crime' with a rival gang or risk his family.

If you couldn't have guessed it already, the film is none other than Shot Caller.

Check out the official trailer here:

People have since rushed to social media to share their praise for the flick, with one Facebook user writing: "One of my favourite movies of all time."

"Amazing film, really underrated," penned a second, while a third quipped: "Great film."

Viewers have since also taken to X to share their thoughts on the movie, with one person saying: "Shot Caller on Netflix 10/10."

Another urged: "Shot Caller on Netflix is 10/10 pls watch."

A third gushed: "Recently discovered the movie Shot Caller on Netflix and WOW is it one of the best films I’ve ever seen and an eye-opening look at the prison system."

"If anyone wants a good movie to watch on Netflix... Shot Caller is dope af," added another, while someone else piped up: "Shot Caller on Netflix UK now.

"If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend it!"

One viewer echoed: "Shot Caller on Netflix crazy asf!!!"

While a final user added: "Everyone watch Shot Caller on Netflix, thank me later."

Well, that's this evening's viewing material sorted.

Shot Caller is currently available to stream on Netflix.
