A new buddy comedy movie from Netflix, drawing parallels to Bad Boys, has instantly become a global hit. The popular franchise, featuring Martin Lawrence and Will Smith as Miami detectives, continues to be a commercial success and is largely well-received by audiences. Bad Boys: Ride or Die premiered last year and generated over $400 million before releasing on Netflix, where it managed to chart at number one.

The streaming service also houses many more high-performing action comedy films, including Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F and The Union. Back in Action, starring Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx, was another major hit upon release. The streaming movie boasted impressive viewership numbers and quickly climbed the Netflix charts, despite poor audience reception.

As a society, it’s evident that people today are stretched thinner than ever in this dog-eat-dog world. Large joint families are gradually giving way to smaller nuclear families, and at the heart of this shift lies the question of who takes on the role of the provider. With today’s increasingly uncertain economy around the world, being the breadwinner of a family has become far more challenging than it was two decades ago. Writer-director Yandy Laurens’ latest Indonesian drama, A Brother and 7 Siblings, is adapted from a soap opera of the 90s, and the film deals with the struggle of a young man trying to provide for a family when he’s left with no other choice. Naturally, there’s bound to be a difference of opinion on the matter. Some might feel it’s easier to get by on their own rather than stay with their families, while others might disagree,...

Yandy Laurens‘s previous film, “Falling in Love Like in Movies” was one of the best films of 2023, with his approach on the ‘film-about-film’ concept being as unique as it was smart. With “A Brother and 7 Siblings” however, he opts for a rather mainstream approach, that definitely aims to please the (Indonesian) audience. Let us see how he fares.

This article contains major spoilers for Invincible season 2 episode 4 and some light spoilers from the comics.

Back before Invincible season 2 premiered, Den of Geek caught up with comic series creator and TV show producer Robert Kirkman to discuss many aspects of the show, including the decision to split the eight-episode second season into two parts, separated by a lengthy holiday season hiatus. Kirkman’s response was telling.

“After the fourth episode of season 2, you’re definitely gonna need a break … a breather. You’re gonna need time to digest,” the writer said.
