» Happy Mother's Day! A day dedicated to celebrating the women who nurture, guide and love us unconditionally. Mothers -- our caregivers, confidants and sometimes our fiercest critics -- hold a unique place in our lives. Their roles are as multifaceted as the relationships they foster with their children, which are often marked by a blend of deep affection, tension and unspoken understanding. It's no wonder that the intricate dynamics of these relationships have been explored so compellingly in cinema.

» The first thing that comes to mind when talking about Michael Bay movies are the explosions, gunfire and scenes of cars flipping or helicopters falling from the sky in slow-motion. The man is like a filmmaker on steroids when it comes to big production. No matter how big or small the story is, Bay always finds a way to add explosions and make a big deal out of it. After his success in franchises like Bad Boys and Transformers, Bay has gone on to create the likes of Pain & Gain (2013) and 6 Underground (2019). His latest project, Ambulance, marks Bay's first directorial effort release since the pandemic began in 2020. Ambulance comes to local cinemas today, three weeks before North America where it is scheduled to release on April 8.

» Joe Wright's latest directorial thriller The Woman In The Window has recently been the centre of criticism by fans of the book that the film is based on and others who think the premise borrowed too much from Alfred Hitchcock's 1954 classic film Rear Window. But regardless if one calls it a rip off or an homage to Hitchcock, the opening scene of the movie utilises the camera to pan across the interior of a lonely apartment and settle on a TV freeze-frame of James Stewart's anguished face from Rear Window, so at least they're acknowledging the similarities. And yes, this film is also all about peeping.
