» While Netflix has had mixed success with original films and series over the years, its true crime documentaries rarely disappoint.

This time, the story is about Aundria Bowman, a young girl who went missing at 14, and the complicated role her birth mother, Cathy Terkanian, plays in uncovering the truth.

» It wouldn’t be wrong to describe the new K-action thriller Kill Boksoon as a kind of Kill Bill meets John Wick, although the South Korean production has its own unique twist. With this story of a single mother trying to leave behind her profession as a contract killer only to find herself hunted down by an assassin organisation, director Byun Sung-hyun fuses East and West in a stylised and fast-paced action film.

» Even though Natasha Romanoff, aka Black Widow, was a strong supporting character rather than a main title character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), she developed a great deal as one of the Avengers since her first appearance over a decade ago in Iron Man 2 (2010). So it's quite hard to believe that Black Widow finally got a solo adventure.

» In the late 80s to mid-90s, if you were looking for an action star who could kick butt, you were probably looking at Jean-Claude Van Damme whose movies like Bloodsport (1988), Kickboxer (1989), Double Impact (1991) Universal Soldier (1992), Hard Target (1993) and Maximum Risk (1996) were among martial arts action favourites. Now in his 60s, the man is back with this action-packed French parody The Last Mercenary about a secret agent-turned-mercenary who comes out of hiding in order to protect his son from being assassinated.
Another miss by Netf lix

» I'm not afraid of a long story and in fact enjoy long movies if the film is engaging or when there is a payoff. A lengthy movie means there's more room for the filmmaker to add more complexity and character development. I will gladly sit there for three or four hours and love every second of it. But sadly, that's not the case with Netflix's original action/heist thriller The Last Days Of American Crime. During its two hours and 30 minutes, I found myself struggling to finish the film the entire time.
