» There seems to be a recurring curse when it comes to adapting James Patterson's best-selling Alex Cross novels for the screen. Those who grew up in the 90s may remember crime thrillers Kiss The Girls (1997) and Along Came A Spider (2001), starring Morgan Freeman as the titular forensic psychologist and detective. Despite box office successes, these films received mixed-to-negative reviews from critics. The 2012 reboot, Alex Cross, starring Tyler Perry, fared even worse. Panned by critics and ultimately a box office bomb, it led to the cancellation of a planned sequel.

Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 01/11/2024
» The premise of Territory tackles power struggles, complex family dynamics and the unyielding grit of frontier life.

Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 11/11/2022
» The second instalment to Black Panther (2018) has become one of the most anticipated films this year, not only because fans are so excited of the continuation of this unique superhero story or the fate of the people of Wakanda, but also audiences are curious at which direction Marvel Studios is going to take this popular franchise, especially after the loss of main character King T'Challa played by the late actor Chadwick Boseman.
