The answer is 0. It’s about 10min of video.
 
A 5 star (maximum) quality standard definition movie (2hrs) is about 1.8gb and an HD is 3gb.

However, those files sizes are only reached if one has a fast enough connection as Netflix is a streaming service.  If 
it is not fast enough, lower quality videos (4 other levels) are used and less data is received.
