A subpar comeback
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 17/02/2023
» Along with popular franchises like Iron Man and Spider-Man, Ant-Man is one of my favourites of all the Marvel Cinematic Universe mainly because the stories are different and focus on family drama that is entertaining, lighthearted and never takes itself too seriously.

Weird, absurdist, but good
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 06/01/2023
» If you've been following Noah Baumbach's work over the past few years -- including The Meyerowitz Stories (2017), Marriage Story (2019) and most recently White Noise (all of which are now available on Netflix) -- it's clear the American director can work nimbly across a range of genres.

Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 23/09/2022
» Stories about the high school King and Queen, cool kids, outcasts, bullies, romance, friendships or even rivalry never get old in teen movies because there will always be a new generation who appreciate coming-of-age stories. Netflix's latest original Do Revenge is another teen comedy presented on the platform time and time again, like The Kissing Booth series, To All The Boys I've Loved Before (2018) and Tall Girl (2019).

Struggle for survival
Life, Published on 04/11/2021
» In early 2020, just as the Covid-19 pandemic was peaking in China, Sasapin Siriwanij, artistic director of Bangkok International Performing Arts Meeting (BIPAM), departed Thailand for a month-long performance tour in northern Europe. Her trip was quickly interrupted, however, by the rapid spread of the pandemic across the continent. After spending several days in limbo, Sasapin regretfully headed home to Bangkok, where she was compelled by the Thai government to spend a fortnight in self-quarantine. Every arts festival in which Sasapin had intended to participate would soon thereafter be cancelled, postponed indefinitely, or converted to an online format.

A real-life fairy tale
Life, Published on 27/03/2018

It seemed like a good idea ...
Life, Published on 23/03/2018
» Considering the considerable financial and critical success enjoyed by the original Pacific Rim in 2013, it was only a matter of time before we received a sequel. Pacific Rim: Uprising, released in theatres this week, brings back several familiar faces, with even more of the cataclysmic robot-versus-kaiju battles than its original.

Tough-guy protagonist adds another layer
Life, Published on 28/09/2015
» 'Grain, meet the railroad," Jack Reacher tells himself, after he's picked the latest sinister little Nowheresville in which to spend a book's length of time. He appears to have gotten off a train in the middle of wheat country, for no better reasons than he liked the cryptic name of the town, Mother's Rest, and that he's got foolproof instincts for sniffing out trouble. Lee Child's Reacher series has hit Book No.20 with a resounding peal of wisecracking glee ("Are you going to be a problem?" "I'm already a problem. The question is, what are you going to do about it?"). Everything about it, starting with Reacher's nose for bad news, is as strong as ever.
