Marked Men

Marked Men is a romantic drama focusing on Shaw Landon, a disciplined pre-med student, and Rule Archer, a rebellious tattoo artist. Their worlds collide after an unforgettable night, challenging them to reconcile their differences and navigate the complexities of their relationship.

Shaw, a pre-med student, has loved Rule, a rebellious tattoo artist, for years, but he’s always seen her as a family friend. After a spontaneous night together, they’re forced to confront their feelings amidst grief, family pressure, and their fears of commitment. Rule, still haunted by the loss of his twin brother, struggles to let Shaw in, while Shaw faces expectations from her wealthy parents, who push her toward her controlling ex, Gabe.

Their relationship is tested by internal demons and external pressures. Rule’s fear of vulnerability keeps him distant, while Shaw wrestles with her love for him and her family’s wishes. With their conflicting worlds, his chaotic freedom and her desire for stability, their bond is strained. As jealousy and insecurities mount, they must decide if their love can survive or if it will unravel under the weight of their differences.

Mickey 17

Bong Joon-ho’s Mickey 17 blends dark humor and sci-fi in a bleak near-future where life is corporatised and controlled by an elite upper class. Robert Pattinson plays Mickey Barnes, a man who signs up for a dangerous space mission as an “Expendable,” meaning he dies repeatedly and is resurrected by a 3D bioprinter, each death seared into his memory.

Based on Edward Ashton’s Mickey7, the film follows Mickey as he faces the absurdity of his situation, but things take a turn when he’s presumed dead and replaced by a new clone, Mickey 18, setting up a clash between the two versions of the same man.

While the movie tones down the novel’s deeper philosophical themes, it retains its dark, nihilistic charm. The story unfolds through rapid-fire flashbacks, with Bong’s signature montage style building the world quickly and efficiently.

Amid the absurdity and bleakness, moments of humanity spark, offering an emotional core to the chaos. The film’s exploration of immortality, identity, and survival makes for a wild, engaging ride, even as it forces viewers to wrestle with its complex themes.
