Try one of the standalone discovery sites. These improve this aspect a lot. I'm using Flixboss (https://flixboss.com).

Does this deal with Netflix in other countries?

I'd just like a big table of everything available with meta-data in columns and the ability to hide rows

Flixbox is USA only, but there are some websites like unogs.com who can handle more countries. In addition to a more convenient browsing of the catalog, if you also want an alternative recommendation system (with really accurate and unbiased predicted ratings), there's the Windows/Mac app Coollector Movie Database: https://www.coollector.com/
