Hmm. Where do I start? As a long-term, die-hard “Star Wars” fan (I saw Star Wars: Episode IV aka The Original, The First, The Best within days of its opening in 1977 in Paris)… Er, where was I? Oh yes, as a true fan, I was obviously very excited at …
All the trailers for the film “The Sheep Detectives” over the last few months were undeniably cute and appealing, so the real McCoy was an interesting and unexpected experience. Because although the film is indeed cute and very appealing, it is so many other things as well – realistic, humorous, …
Right, before I start – a couple of disclosures. Disclosure #1 I thought the film was great. Disclosure #2 I am not at all knowledgeable about DC comics, so may well have missed many of the references in the film. Like I had NO idea who Green Lantern or Mister …
It’s been 31 years since I last saw a Jurassic Park film. At the time we were in Delhi (where, after many decades, we now live again) and went to see the just-released-in-India Hollywood film “Jurassic Park” at the cinema in Priya…the cinema is still there, although much more glam …

Well, we all thoroughly enjoyed Guy Ritchie’s “The Gentlemen”. “We”, by the way, were a multi-racial party of 4: an Indian, a Singaporean, an Anglo-Indian & a Brit. And we watched the film in Bangkok, with many Thais & Chinese in the audience, and everyone seemed to laugh a heck …
Given the opulence of the setting, I think that Icon Cineconic in the uber-luxury, brand new IconSiam mall, is actually totally reasonable. I live in India, and during a week of intensive cinema going in Bangkok – 4 movies in a week – every time we paid less than we …
