Scooby-Doo for adults
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 20/02/2026
» Going into the first episode of the new Netflix series set in Ireland, How To Get To Heaven From Belfast, I was quite sceptical, as the setup somewhat reminded me of Stephen King's IT -- a group of nerdy childhood friends, now adults, returning to their hometown after 26 years to confront old fears and a dark secret from their past.

» From original Mafia spouse to the romcom heroine and early 20th-century feminist author to late-20th-century modern woman navigating both the tumultuous Me Decade and the you-can-have-it-all 1980s -- these roles may have been memorable in the hands of many actors, however, Diane Keaton made them iconic.

A pitch perfect pairing

» What makes an action movie exciting and enjoyable, even when the story is simple or predictable? It doesn't happen often, but every now and then, a film comes along that proves a formulaic plot doesn't have to be a dealbreaker. Enter Prime Video's latest buddy action flick, Heads Of State -- a wild, high-energy, odd-couple romp that resurrects a familiar formula and injects it with sharp comedic timing and absurdly fun set pieces. Idris Elba and John Cena are the unexpected duo that make it all work.
Deadly reunion

» By the time audiences left theatres in 2016 after watching The Accountant, they had encountered a singular kind of action hero: Christian Wolff, a maths savant with a sniper's eye and a code of honour all his own. In The Accountant 2, director Gavin O'Connor and writer Bill Dubuque thread through a high-stakes murder mystery, the harrowing underworld of human trafficking and a fragile bond between two damaged brothers.
When two genres collide
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 21/03/2025
» I am always intrigued when filmmakers attempt to blend two polar opposite genres -- such as horror and comedy -- just to see how it turns out. These films can either be a surprising hit or an awkward miss. In the case of The Parenting, the latest comedy-horror offering from MAX, I'd say it unfortunately leans closer to the miss side. While it has a decent premise and some entertaining moments, the overall execution falls flat, making it feel more like a missed opportunity than a memorable film.

» Two CIA spies decide to leave their perilous lives behind when one of them becomes pregnant. Over a decade later, they and their two children are pulled back into the world of espionage after their carefully crafted cover is accidentally blown.
A time-travelling tale that doesn't click
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 15/11/2024
» The combination of a coming-of-age story and a masked serial killer is a familiar formula. But Time Cut, Netflix's latest teen slasher, attempts to elevate this well-worn genre by adding a twist of sci-fi and time travel. At first glance, this new approach is intriguing, promising a mix of Back To The Future and Scream, but does it deliver?
The power of friendship

» When it comes to Will Ferrell films and his unique comedic style, reactions tend to be polarising -- some people love his absurd humour, while others find it a bit too much. But I have to say, after watching him in the documentary Will & Harper, which chronicles a deeply personal road trip with his longtime friend Harper Steele, Ferrell's off-screen persona will win over even the toughest sceptics.
