Celebration of tradition
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 20/01/2023
» Veteran filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda became known after winning the Palme d'Or at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival for the crime drama Shoplifters despite having directed films and TV series for nearly three decades. Renowned for his gentle sense of pacing, simple yet beautiful cinematography, and a focus on the complexities of family relationships, he showcased his skills in previous works such as After The Storm (2016), Like Father, Like Son (2013) and Nobody Knows (2004). However, the one that has stuck in my mind to this day is Our Little Sister (2015), a female-focused drama that gave us a cosy, heartwarming family story, along with rich cultural and beautiful vistas of the Japanese countryside.

Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 17/06/2022
» Whether it's because he has reached a saturation point with goofy comedies, or because he's too old to lead a romantic comedy, in the past few years, Adam Sandler has turned to more mature, dramatic roles. If you've seen his ventures into indie films like Punch-Drunk Love (2002), The Meyerowitz Stories (2017) or more recently Uncut Gems (2019), you'll notice that Sandler has a dramatic side to him that's surprisingly impressive. Now Sandler's back with another dramatic turn in Hustle, a Netflix sports drama where he plays a basketball scout looking for the next great player. Hustle feels like Jerry Maguire meets Rocky. It is a heartfelt, uplifting underdog movie that also serves as a love letter to the NBA.

» While the idea of Korea and space exploration in reality may still be too far-fetched, South Korean filmmakers seem to be interested in exploring the search of mysterious planets above the sky. After we got the high-octane space adventure Space Sweepers on Netfllix earlier this year, the service recently gave us another outer-space show. The Silent Sea is a mystery thriller series that tackles the darker aspect of space missions and goes even further and deeper into conspiracy and mystery with its revelations and how this all connects to human civilisation's impending doom.

Have no fear of missing out on Malevolent
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 20/11/2020
» With the impact of the coronavirus on the global film industry causing cinemas around the world, including Thailand, to struggle with a lack of big releases, it's understandable that the number of movies showing in theatres nowadays aren't as diverse as usual. And without new blockbuster films to show, we've seen many cinemas rerun old movies in the past few months, whether it's Hong Kong action/drama classic A Moment Of Romance (1990), Christopher Nolan's sci-fi epic Inception (2010), Korean zombie movie Train To Busan (2016), or action hit starring Keanu Reeves John Wick Chapter 3 (2019).
