Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 05/01/2026
» 2025 was a year defined by contradiction in the world of cinema. It was marked by the loss of several influential figures in the entertainment industry, moments that cast a long shadow over the year and reminded us how fragile even the most celebrated creative legacies can be.
Broaden your horror horizon
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 08/11/2025
» As a fan of Stephen King and his classic horror stories like It, and having watched only the first three episodes of the new series IT: Welcome To Derry, I can already say this latest HBO Max series feels more impressive and more authentically "King-like" than either of the two film versions. And I'll tell you why.
Farewell frights
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 05/09/2025
» After more than a decade of terrifying audiences with four feature films and an array of spin-offs, The Conjuring: Last Rites arrives as the supposed final chapter in the saga of Ed and Lorraine Warren. This film is positioned as an emotionally driven farewell to the famous paranormal investigators, who face one last case against a vengeful entity they can no longer avoid.
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.
Return to darkness

» The Last Of Us, created by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann, has returned for a much-anticipated second season. Based on the iconic and emotionally devastating video game series by Naughty Dog, this HBO adaptation continues to star Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. And please be warned -- this review contains mild spoilers for episodes one through three. If you haven't seen the new season, now's a good time to stop reading and catch up.
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.
Not so tasty

» A wealthy German family spends their summer vacation at a picturesque villa in the French countryside. At first glance, everything appears picture-perfect -- luxury, tranquillity and the superficial harmony of a family trying to enjoy some quality time.

From riveting originals and compelling adaptations to nostalgic revivals and groundbreaking spin-offs, the streaming landscape has been nothing short of extraordinary. This year, audiences were spoiled for choice as streaming giants like HBO Max, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+ and others unleashed a staggering volume of fresh content, ensuring there was something for everyone to enjoy.
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.
