100%. While we are at this, I am happy to share my heuristic for sifting "uninspiring grub" from quality shows. Two words: theme song. If the protagonists wander around in silence on a CGI generated background, that's a hard pass right away. Unfortunately, most of Netflix originals fall into this category.

Could you give an example of such an intro? I'm not entirely sure what style you are referring to and am quite curious.

The Bourne Identity, Skyfall, Game of Thrones, Pirates of the Caribbean, and so on.

It does not have to be original. And I don't mean only the intro but the entire soundtrack. Often, the theme song is reused over and over during the film with many variations to set the tone of a scene.

Bad movies skimp on soundtracks.
