Whether it&#8217;s dominating the animated landscape with mega-hits like KPop Demon Hunters or taking over the sci-fi genre <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/stranger-things-season-1-vhs-special-edition-netflix\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">with shows like Stranger Things<\/a>, Netflix is a force to be reckoned with in the battle for new and iconic IPs. One area where the channel is slowly making progress is in the <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/tag\/action\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">action<\/a> movie genre.<\/p>\n<p>Gripping plotlines, impressive stunts, and nonstop thrills are all par for the course when it comes to action films. Like children&#8217;s and family movies, action films are deceptively difficult to execute well. It is not merely a matter of <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/anne-hathaway-the-hustle-netflix-streaming-success-july-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">throwing in an explosion here<\/a> or adding a few more stunts there. A great action movie needs to feel like an odyssey, a rewarding saga that audiences are allowed to participate in. While Netflix makes strides in almost every genre, its foray into action is steadily rising in both quantity and quality. Here are Netflix&#8217;s best original action movies so far.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Carry-On&#8217; (2024)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"1650\" height=\"826\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Taron Egerton as Ethan Kopek putting on an ear-piece in Carry-On\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/carry-on_rs0lsi.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/carry-on_rs0lsi.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Taron Egerton as Ethan Kopek in Carry-OnImage via Netflix<\/p>\n<p>Whether or not <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/tag\/movie\/carry-on-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Carry-On<\/a> can be <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/netflix-christmas-movies-original-best-ranked\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">called a Christmas movie<\/a> is up for debate in the same vein as the ongoing Die Hard debate. Taron Egerton stars as Ethan Kopek, a TSA agent working on one of the busiest travel days of the year, Christmas Eve. As if his workday wasn\u2019t stressed enough, Ethan soon has an unknown hijacker talking to him through an earpiece, threatening his coworkers and loved ones if he does not let a suspicious package go through the safety check and onto a plane.<\/p>\n<p>Carry-On is full of suspense. Its realistic and close-to-home setting ramps up the stakes and makes it instantly gripping. Egerton is phenomenal in the movie and carries the focus well. Jason Bateman is brilliant as the cold, calculating, and methodical Traveler. Carry-On makes a good watch any time of the year, but especially for action fans who want a little mayhem in their holiday movies.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Gunpowder Milkshake&#8217; (2021)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Angela Bassett, Karen Gillan, Michelle Yeoh, and Carla Gugino examine guns and other weapons in a library in Gunpowder Milkshake\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gunpowder-milkshake-library-weapons-scene.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/gunpowder-milkshake-library-weapons-scene.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Angela Bassett, Karen Gillan, Michelle Yeoh, and Carla Gugino examine guns and other weapons in a library in Gunpowder MilkshakeImage via Netflix<\/p>\n<p>If you were to combine the maternal feelings and chaotic felicity of Everything Everywhere All at Once with the fast-paced fight scenes of John Wick, you would get Gunpowder Milkshake. Karen Gillan stars as Sam, an assassin who is used to kicking ass and taking names, who gets saddled with an eight-year-old girl named Emily (Chloe Coleman) who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Gunpowder Milkshake is packed with talent, including Everything Everywhere All at Once&#8217;s Michelle Yeoh. Lena Headey, Carla Gugino, Angela Bassett, and Paul Giamatti are also part of the extremely gifted cast.<\/p>\n<p>Gunpowder Milkshake is refreshingly original and one of the best female-led action movies of the 21st century. There are gorgeous slow-motion sequences that make the visceral visually stunning. Released during the height of the COVID pandemic, <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/action-packed-movies-2020s-nobody-remembers-today\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Gunpowder Milkshake didn&#8217;t receive the attention it deserved<\/a>. The blend of distinctly feminine elements and gritty action tropes is brilliant, and if you haven\u2019t checked out this absolute triumph yet, this is your sign.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Damsel&#8217; (2024)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Princess Elodie (Millie Bobby Brown) pointing a sword at an offscreen threat in Netflix's Damsel\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/millie-bobby-brown-in-damsel-on-netflix-featured.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/millie-bobby-brown-in-damsel-on-netflix-featured.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Princess Elodie (Millie Bobby Brown) pointing a sword at an offscreen threat in Netflix&#8217;s DamselImage via Netflix<\/p>\n<p>From facing monsters in titles like Stranger Things and Godzilla: King of the Monsters to solving mysteries in the popular Enola Holmes trilogy, there is nothing Millie Bobby Brown can&#8217;t do. One of her most epic action movies yet is <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/best-fantasy-movies-netflix-troll-damsel-labyrinth-kpop-demon-hunters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">the 2024 dark fantasy<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/tag\/damsel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Damsel<\/a>. In Damsel, Brown stars as Elodie, a young woman who thinks her dreams are about to come true when she is wedded to the young and eligible Prince Henry (Nick Robinson). However, there are darker circumstances and deeper motives at play, and immediately after saying her vows, Elodie is tossed into a deep cavern where a dangerous dragon lives.<\/p>\n<p>Damsel is a fantastic flip on the fairytale genre. It takes back the ground used as an all-too-often trope of sacrificing the lives of innocent young women as a means to an end. Brown proves in Damsel why she is one of the foremost action stars of the day, and the performances given by Robin Wright, Angela Bassett, and the rest of the cast are equally dedicated and captivating. Shohreh Aghdashloo is irreplaceable as the voice of the dragon. The writing in Damsel lifts the character of the dragon off the page and, much like the damsel herself, she isn&#8217;t relegated to merely being a plot device, but is in fact an important part of the story.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Day Shift&#8217; (2022)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Snoop Dogg and Jamie Foxx are looking ahead in an office in Day Shift.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Jamie-Foxx-and-Snoop-Dogg-fight-vampires-and-poke-fun.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Jamie-Foxx-and-Snoop-Dogg-fight-vampires-and-poke-fun.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Snoop Dogg and Jamie Foxx are looking ahead in an office in Day Shift.Image via Netflix<\/p>\n<p>In a world where vampire hunting is a money-making enterprise, Bud Jablonski (Jamie Foxx) goes on an all-out killing spree trying to make money fast so his ex-wife doesn&#8217;t relocate with his daughter. Day Shift is a gory, nonstop horror-meets-action banger. As the movie makes note, this is nowhere near Twilight. In Day Shift, vampires are soulless, blood-sucking villains, and the hunters like Bud are there to &#8220;cut necks and cash checks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Foxx is, as always, brilliant, and his odd couple dynamic with Dave Franco as Seth makes for a highly entertaining movie. Day Shift is a perfect choice for dark fantasy-action fans and puts viewers in the mind of films like Blade and Daybreakers. The comedic elements lift the overall tone of the film and keep it from being a straight horror. There have been whispers about a <a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/jamie-foxxs-vampire-action-movie-with-76-audience-rt-score-gets-cautious-sequel-update-2-years-later-theres-whispers\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">possible Day Shift sequel<\/a> in the future, and Franco has said he would be up for it and would love to work with Foxx again.<\/p>\n<p>        Collider Exclusive \u00b7 Action Hero Quiz<br \/>\n        Which Action Hero Would Be<br \/>Your Perfect Partner?<br \/>\n        Rambo \u00b7 James Bond \u00b7 Indiana Jones \u00b7 John McClane \u00b7 Ethan Hunt<\/p>\n<p>        Five legends.

Delivered like the world isn&#8217;t ending. Then we move.<br \/>\n        BNothing said at all \u2014 just a look that means we both already know what has to happen.<br \/>\n        CA plan I don&#8217;t fully understand that somehow accounts for everything, delivered in thirty seconds flat.<br \/>\n        DA piece of historical context that reframes the entire situation and tells us exactly what to do next.<br \/>\n        ESomeone who steps forward instead of back \u2014 because that&#8217;s who they&#8217;ve always been.\n      <\/p>\n<p>REVEAL MY PARTNER \u2192<\/p>\n<p>        Your Partner Has Been Assigned<br \/>\n        Your Perfect Partner Is\u2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"cq-result-intro-text\">Your answers have pointed to one action hero above all others. This is the person built to have your back \u2014 for better or considerably, spectacularly worse.<\/p>\n<p>          Rambo<\/p>\n<p class=\"cq-result-card-text\">Your partner doesn&#8217;t talk much, doesn&#8217;t need to, and will have assessed every threat in your immediate environment before you&#8217;ve finished your first sentence. John Rambo is not a man of plans or politics \u2014 he is a force of nature shaped by survival, loyalty, and a capacity for endurance that goes beyond anything training can produce. He will not leave you behind. He has never left anyone behind who deserved to come home. What you get with Rambo is the most capable, most quietly ferocious partner imaginable \u2014 one who has been through things that would have broken anyone else, and who chose to keep going anyway. You&#8217;ll never need to ask if he has your back. You&#8217;ll just know.<\/p>\n<p>          James Bond<\/p>\n<p class=\"cq-result-card-text\">Your partner will arrive perfectly dressed, perfectly briefed, and with a cover story so convincing it&#8217;ll take you a moment to remember what&#8217;s actually true. James Bond is the most professionally dangerous person in any room he enters \u2014 and the most disarmingly charming, which is the point. He operates in a world of layers, where nothing is what it appears and every advantage is used without apology. You&#8217;ll never be bored. You&#8217;ll occasionally be furious. But when it matters \u2014 when the mission is genuinely on the line and the margin for error has collapsed to nothing \u2014 Bond is exactly the partner you want. He has survived things that have no business being survivable. He does it with style. That is not nothing.<\/p>\n<p>          Indiana Jones<\/p>\n<p class=\"cq-result-card-text\">Your partner will know the history, the language, the cultural context, and exactly why the thing everyone else is ignoring is actually the most important thing in the room. Indiana Jones is brilliant, reckless, and occasionally impossible \u2014 but he is also one of the most resourceful, most genuinely knowledgeable partners you could find yourself beside. He approaches every situation with a scholar&#8217;s eye and a brawler&#8217;s instinct, which is an unusual combination and a remarkably effective one. He hates snakes and gets personally attached to objects of historical significance, both of which will slow you down at least once. It doesn&#8217;t matter. What Indy brings is irreplaceable \u2014 and the adventures you&#8217;ll have together will be the kind people write books about. Assuming you survive them.<\/p>\n<p>          John McClane<\/p>\n<p class=\"cq-result-card-text\">Your partner was not supposed to be here. He does not have the right equipment, the right information, or anything approaching the right odds. He has a sarcastic remark and an absolute refusal to accept that the situation is as bad as it looks. John McClane is the greatest accidental hero in the history of action cinema \u2014 a man whose superpower is stubbornness, whose contingency plan is improvisation, and whose capacity to absorb punishment and keep moving would be alarming if it weren&#8217;t so useful. He will complain the entire time. He will make it significantly more chaotic than it needed to be. And he will absolutely, unconditionally, without question come through when it counts. Yippee-ki-yay.<\/p>\n<p>          Ethan Hunt<\/p>\n<p class=\"cq-result-card-text\">Your partner has already run seventeen scenarios by the time you&#8217;ve finished reading the briefing, and the plan he&#8217;s settled on involves at least two things that should be physically impossible. Ethan Hunt operates at the absolute edge of human capability \u2014 technically, physically, and intellectually \u2014 and he brings the same relentless precision to protecting his partners that he brings to dismantling organisations that shouldn&#8217;t exist. He is not easy to know and he will never fully tell you everything. But he will carry the weight of the mission so completely, so absolutely, that your job is simply to trust him \u2014 and the remarkable thing is that trusting him always turns out to be the right call. The mission will be impossible. He will complete it anyway.<\/p>\n<p>\n        \u21bb RETAKE THE QUIZ\n      <\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Ultraman: Rising&#8217; (2024)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Ultraman holding a baby kaiju in the pale moonlight in Ultraman: Rising \" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ultraman-rising-2.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ultraman-rising-2.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Ultraman holding a baby kaiju in the pale moonlight in Ultraman: RisingImage via Netflix<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/tag\/ultraman-rising\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Ultraman: Rising<\/a> is an awesome Netflix original action movie that the whole family can enjoy. It is one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/best-animated-family-movies-last-5-years-ranked\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">best animated movies of the past five years<\/a> and packs a whole lot of punch and heart. The story revolves around protagonist Ken Sato (Christopher Sean), a famous baseball player who returns to Japan after having a successful life and career overseas. Ken&#8217;s return to Japan carries the emotional weight of taking over the Ultraman mantle from his father, a source of deep contention between them, and his relocation is made even more complicated when he takes in a baby Kaiju that has lost its mother.<\/p>\n<p>Ultraman: Rising is the latest in a solid canon that has included everything from anime to TV shows. It feels like a capsule story within the Ultraman franchise, and you don&#8217;t have to be familiar with any of the other projects to enjoy this spectacular standalone film. Ultraman: Rising has action scenes with superhero themes and a touching undercurrent about family and parenting. The baby Kaiju is absolutely adorable, and watching Ken bond with her makes the movie highly rewarding. If you want a fun action-packed movie with a good story that everyone can watch together, Ultraman: Rising is your next watch.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Space Sweepers&#8217; (2021)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Tiger Park, Captain Jang, Tae-ho, and Bubs looking down at Dorothy in 'Space Sweepers'\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/space-sweepers-crew-edit.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/space-sweepers-crew-edit.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Tiger Park, Captain Jang, Tae-ho, and Bubs looking down at Dorothy in &#8216;Space Sweepers&#8217;Image via Netflix<\/p>\n<p>Set in the future, Space Sweepers follows a misfit crew of scavengers who stumble upon a highly advanced android child.

The cast is spot-on, and Space Sweepers delivers one of the more interesting and introspective performances about an android with the identity journey of Bubs (Yoo Hae-jin and Kim Hyang-gi).<\/p>\n<p>Netflix is known for its excellent selection of South Korean TV shows and movies, and Space Sweepers is no exception. It has the ensemble movie format down to an art. Each character is interesting on their own, and the group as a whole is dynamic to watch. Netflix offers an English dub of the movie and subtitles. Space Sweepers is an interesting and enthusiastic fan-favorite that could be poised to reach cult status as time goes on.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Enola Holmes 2&#8217; (2022)<\/p>\n<p>Taking after her older brother, the famed detective Sherlock Holmes (Henry Cavill), <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/millie-bobby-brown-movies-ranked\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Enola Holmes (Millie Bobby Brown)<\/a> has a keen mind for solving mysteries. Instructed by her mother, Eudoria (Helena Bonham Carter), to be cunning and independent, Enola is a leading lady like none other in the Victorian era. Headstrong, fiercely loyal, and abounding with tenacity, Enola tackles cases that get dismissed by other detectives.<\/p>\n<p>The second movie in the trilogy, <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/tag\/enola-holmes-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Enola Holmes 2<\/a>, is the best of the canon. The romance, action, and intrigue are all dialed up to 11, and the introduction of Moriarty (Sharon Duncan-Brewster) as a villain is excellent. Enola Holmes 2 offers some interesting insights into social and gender issues of the era and is a great watch for fans of period murder mysteries.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;The Gray Man&#8217; (2022)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Lloyd Hansen, played by actor Chris Evans, having a drink while sitting on a chair in The Gray Man\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/chris-evans-the-gray-man.jpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/chris-evans-the-gray-man.jpeg\"\/><br \/>\n        Lloyd Hansen, played by actor Chris Evans, having a drink while sitting on a chair in The Gray ManImage via Netflix<\/p>\n<p>Directed by The Russo Brothers, <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/tag\/the-gray-man\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Gray Man<\/a> stars Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans as combatants. In the movie, Gosling plays Six, a CIA agent with virtually no identity. Evans plays Lloyd, a psychotic hitman who puts a bounty on Six&#8217;s head, ensuring that everyone, not only himself, will be trying to end him. It becomes an all-out brawl as multiple agents and assassins get involved, and The Gray Man is full of excitement.<\/p>\n<p>The Gray Man is a divisive movie. It has an abysmal critics&#8217; score on Rotten Tomatoes, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/the_gray_man_2022\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">an audience approval rating of 90%<\/a>. It seems as though viewers either love or hate this original action movie. While The Gray Man is no Avengers, it has exhilarating action scenes, solid fight sequences, and watching Evans play a villain in an action movie after his long stint as Captain America in the MCU is refreshing. Although there were talks about a possible <a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/ryan-gosling-forgotten-action-movie-the-gray-man-sequel-update-russo-brothers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">sequel to The Gray Man<\/a>, the project has been put on hold for the time being.<\/p>\n<p>                        &#8216;Vampires vs. the Bronx&#8217; (2020)<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"1650\" height=\"826\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Three teenagers hold up crosses and look afraid in Vampires vs. the Bronx\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/vampires-vs-the-bronx.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/vampires-vs-the-bronx.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n        Three teenagers hold up crosses and look afraid in Vampires vs. the BronxImage via\u00a0Netflix<\/p>\n<p>Bringing some fresh blood (pun intended) to the vampire genre is the dark comedy Vampires vs. the Bronx. In the movie, three young friends notice a strange influx of people to their neighborhood who act out of the ordinary, right as a bunch of locals go missing. When Miguel (Jaden Michael), Bobby (Gerald Jones), and Luis (Gregory Diaz IV) investigate, they find out that the newcomers are actually vampires.<\/p>\n<p>Vampires vs. the Bronx is a funny and bloody action movie. It has a distinct energy and grit to the mise en sc\u00e8ne and the storyline emphasizes the importance of a local community. All of the cast are brilliant, and fans of shows like Stranger Things and Buffy the Vampire Slayer need to add this Netflix original to their watchlist.<\/p>\n<p>Vampires vs. the Bronx has a direct contradiction of Rotten Tomatoes scores compared to The Gray Man. It <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/vampires_vs_the_bronx\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">ranks incredibly high with critics<\/a>, but very low with audience votes. This makes it another movie you have to see for yourself to decide. Movies like Vampires vs. the Bronx and The Gray Man prove that action fans are a highly discerning crowd, and they can&#8217;t be swayed by critics&#8217; votes, one way or the other.<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"480\" height=\"672\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"vampires-vs-the-bronx-movie-poster.jpg\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/vampires-vs-the-bronx-movie-poster.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/vampires-vs-the-bronx-movie-poster.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>    \t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/screenrant.com\/db\/movie\/vampires-vs-the-bronx-139559\/\" title=\"Vampires Vs the Bronx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\tVampires Vs the Bronx<br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                                            Release Date<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOctober 2, 2020<\/p>\n<p>                                            Runtime<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t85 minutes<\/p>\n<p>                                            Director<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOsmany Rodriguez<\/p>\n<p>                                            Writers<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBlaise Hemingway, Osmany Rodriguez<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Netflix has evolved from one of the foremost places to stream studio content to a producer of its&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":571372,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[146,85,46,397],"class_list":["post-571371","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571371","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=571371"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/571371\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/571372"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=571371"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=571371"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=571371"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
