The most pirated international movies
- Freak_NL 6y agoDespite the title suggesting a list of the usual US blockbusters, this is a list of Russian, South Korean, and Turkish films (and a few other countries) most of us won't have heard of before (with the possible exception of Parasite). Quite entertaining actually.
- Cthulhu_ 6y agoI've seen all the Ip Man films actually, I think they were an in-flight entertainment option in a long flight. There's one with Mike Tyson as well.
- unixhero 6y agoIp Man films, what are those?
- senectus1 6y agoChinese martial arts folk/action hero movies. they first few are quite good. mostly based around "Shoot boxing" a fairly fast and close range and not terribly flashy but stull impressing martial arts form. IP man is the hero's name.. (not I.P., IP)
- Darmody 6y agoI'd love to see a which countries had the most downloads.
- GrumpyNl 6y agoMost likely the countries where they are not allowed.
- Darmody 6y agoOr poor and highly populated countries. If only a small chunk of a country like India downloads a movie, it'll hit the top 10 downloads easily.
- mkl95 6y agoThis is also true of film reviews. I remember seeing some movies from countries like India in the IMDB top 250 before they updated their algorithm to account for what you mention.
- hadrien01 6y agoThis page hijacks your browser history every time you scroll through a title...
- marcusklaas 6y agoYup, very annoying. Definite anti-pattern.
- bluedino 6y agoAbuses the anchor tag/url....ugh

- everyone 6y agoHN is full of silicon valley brainwashed drones, but the website itself is so nice. So functional and nice to use. I like that restofworld.org aims to give a broader view to a broader audience, but man the website itself is just barf compared to HN.
- alexfromapex 6y agoI'm usually annoyed by dubbed movies but the two trailers I watched (Attraction 2: Invasion and Son of a Rich) look really good and now I want to see them
- elboru 6y agoI’ve noticed recent sci-fi, fantasy and horror movies from all around the world becoming really popular. And I love it, it’s nice to see refreshing new ideas, as a non American I love Hollywood movies, but since they’re obviously American centralized the American point of view, ideas and “local jokes” are inevitable. It would be great if the rest of the world would have more blockbusters so we could learn more about other cultures and their point of view.
- ricardoa20 6y agoI know that it may seem like an easy option to watch a movie without paying, but you should also know all the risks that you run when you enter an unsecured website, know all about it at https://demyo.com/ https://demyo.com/.
- AnonC 6y agoMost pirated does not necessarily mean they’re good movies or movies you’d like. They just mean that the movies are good and/or the audience in some countries fell for some marketing and downloaded them. Some people may pirate movies based on such lists without checking the synopsis, reviews and ratings, only to be frustrated later at the thought of having wasted time, data caps, etc. Some of the above is applicable to movies in theaters or on streaming services as well (Netflix, I’m looking at your movies).
- jbob2000 6y agoWhen I saw Parasite as the number 1 item, I remembered my experience trying to watch it; I couldn't find a legit way to watch it using the existing services I pay for, so I downloaded it. The rest of the items on this list look like they would also be tough to find, so of course people would resort to pirating.
