Not one for the pups

» 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.
A surreal telling

» You are not alone if you get into Superstar, the new Netflix miniseries from Spain, without knowing it's based on a real-life figure -- a once-infamous Spanish dance-pop singer from the late 1990s named Tamara, who later reinvented herself as Yurena.
Girls gone bad

» Remember the popular HBO series Girls from over a decade ago? The show was widely recognised for its postfeminist commentary on female sexuality and millennial angst and it ran for a surprisingly long six seasons. To this day, I still don't really understand the rave reviews. I only watched a few episodes here and there, so I won't pretend to be an expert on it, but what I saw never quite resonated with me.
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.
Dying for love

» After his Oscar-sweeping triumph Parasite (2019), Bong Joon-ho had carte blanche to do just about anything. His follow-up? Mickey 17 -- a US$115 million (3.8 billion baht) sci-fi dark comedy that's equal parts existential nightmare, absurdist farce and strangely, a love story. Based on Edward Ashton's novel Mickey7, the film is genre-defying, thought-provoking and often downright bizarre -- in the best way possible.

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?
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?
