Good Grief, the new film that marked Dan Levy‘s feature directorial debut, has reportedly not been a popular streaming title.

The dramedy, which hit Netflix on Jan. 5, only occupied a spot on the streamer’s US Top 10 titles list for four days, as noted by X (the platform formerly known as Twitter) user Kasey Moore, proprietor of the What’s On Netflix website.

Now, just under two weeks following its Netflix release, the film is no longer on any Netflix Top 10 list around the world.

Levy not only wrote and directed Good Grief, but also starred as Marc, “an artist grieving the loss of his famous writer husband,” per the film’s synopsis. Himesh Patel and Ruth Negga starred alongside Levy as his chums Thomas and Sophie, respectively.

This blow might be new for the Schitt’s Creek star, who alongside Andrew Cividino, earned an Emmy in 2020 for co-directing the series finale entitled “Happy Ending,” per Variety.

Nonetheless, the film has garnered rather positive reviews, including a solid score of 74% on the Rotten Tomatoes-issued “Tomatometer,” with an audence score of 72%.

Decider contributor John Serba noted in his Good Grief review that the film “could be sharper, crisper and funnier,” but wrote that “as it stands, it’s tender and amusing enough to warrant a watch,” ultimately encouraging prospective viewers to “stream it.”

The New York Times deemed it a Critic’s Pick, highlighting in their review “Negga’s vivacity, Patel’s aching sincerity and Levy’s uncanny talent for great line readings,” which ultimately led to their characters “feel[ing] instantly recognizable, their chemistry legible as complicated love.”

However, ScreenRant called the movie “a mixed bag,” noting that “the strength of the movie lies more in the performances than the story being told.” The Daily Beast issued a harsh critique, deeming the work “a shamelessly rudimentary film.”
