» Fans of the Emmy-winning hit series Schitt's Creek (2015) would likely be curious, if not cautiously optimistic to see Dan Levy return with Big Mistakes, a new crime-comedy series in which he both directs and co-stars.
Prime Video drama presents mother versus girlfriend showdown
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 19/09/2025
» The story of a mother-in-law clashing with her son's partner -- and the hapless son stuck in the middle -- feels universal. It's a tale many people can recognise, either from personal experience or from watching families around them unravel in similar ways. Prime Video seems particularly fond of this theme lately, frequently pushing dramas about dysfunctional families. This year alone, they've released titles like Better Sister and We Were Liars. Whether or not you'll enjoy their latest entry, The Girlfriend, depends largely on how much patience you have for this type of conflict-driven domestic drama.
A shaky German thriller
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 09/05/2025
» If you've already watched all the decent action movies on Netflix but still hunger for more, the latest German flick Exterritorial could serve as a temporary solution -- though probably not much more than that.
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.

A light and easy murder mystery

» A grand mansion on a remote island. A wealthy family gathered for a joyous occasion. But the celebration comes to a screeching halt when a sudden murder occurs, and an outside detective is called in to solve the case. Sound familiar? Netflix's latest miniseries The Perfect Couple seems like an attempt to create their very own The White Lotus. But does it succeed in delivering the same intrigue and sharp satire?
Another teen movie to miss?
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 30/08/2024
» From Fast Times At Ridgemont High in the 80s and American Pie in the 90s to Superbad in the 2000s, films that blend raunchy comedy with teen coming-of-age themes have proven timeless. They captivate new generations of young people growing up, navigating the awkwardness of adolescence and exploring their burgeoning interest in the opposite sex. These films have a way of tapping into the universal experiences of teenage life, using humour to highlight the absurdities of growing up.
An underwhelming mystery

» Kidnap and ransom are central to many thrillers as they tap into the fear of a loved one disappearing without a trace. This premise forms the core of Vanished Into The Night, an Italian thriller that, despite promising a gripping mystery, ultimately disappoints due to its weak plot and lacklustre execution.
Poirot returns in style
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 15/09/2023
» Kenneth Branagh returns to the director's chair and reprises his role as the iconic Hercule Poirot in A Haunting In Venice, the latest instalment in his series of Agatha Christie adaptations. Set against the backdrop of post-World War II Venice, this film weaves together murder mystery and supernatural elements to create a captivating and fast-paced chiller that keeps audiences engaged from start to finish.
