» If you're constantly flicking through your streaming library looking for a new animated cartoon to watch while feeding your toddler breakfast, don't let the cutesy puppy images of Netflix's newest animated movie Fixed fool you. The content you are about to unleash over the next hour-and-a-half is nothing like the adorable and family-friendly content its posters suggest.

» 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.

» It has been four years since Netflix released the Fear Street trilogy -- three interconnected slasher films that mixed 80s nostalgia, supernatural lore and time-hopping ambition. The movies came out during a period when anything evoking retro aesthetics, especially the 1980s, like Stranger Things, practically guaranteed success. Though far from perfect, the original Fear Street trilogy had its own pulpy charm, especially in the way it linked three different time periods together into one cohesive and mysterious narrative.

» Despite being celebrated as Mexico's top negotiator, a man's skills are put to the ultimate test both professionally and personally in Netflix's latest Mexican action comedy Non Negotiable.

An underwhelming mystery
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 19/07/2024
» Kidnap and ransom are central to many thrillers as they tap into the fear of a loved one disappearing without a trace.
