When the past returns
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 21/04/2025
» I usually have a soft spot for Scandinavian thrillers. Oftentimes, they're so unique and interesting that Hollywood ends up remaking them -- like The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2009) or The Hunt (2012). There's a kind of slow-burning tension and cold realism to them that you don't always get in American shows. However, while that's usually the case, I have to say that The Glass Dome, the new six-episode Netflix series, doesn't quite measure up -- even though it has potential.

When two genres collide
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 21/03/2025
» I am always intrigued when filmmakers attempt to blend two polar opposite genres -- such as horror and comedy -- just to see how it turns out. These films can either be a surprising hit or an awkward miss. In the case of The Parenting, the latest comedy-horror offering from MAX, I'd say it unfortunately leans closer to the miss side. While it has a decent premise and some entertaining moments, the overall execution falls flat, making it feel more like a missed opportunity than a memorable film.

Dying for love
Life, Tatat Bunnag, Published on 17/03/2025
» 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.
