Burning (2018)
Trailer
Why watch this film?
As the title suggests, this movie is like fire - but not a quick fire that ends in an instant, but rather a slow burning flame that gradually intensifies and envelops the viewer. Director and screenwriter Chang-dong Lee (of the award-winning 'Oasis') adapts a story from renowned Japanese writer Haruki Murakami into a thriller focused on millennial relationships, involving sex and dramas relevant to this generation. Kudos to the performances of the three protagonists (including Steven Yeun, aka Glenn from 'The Walking Dead') and the atmosphere the movie creates around them, specially in the last act. For all that, 'Burning' received the Critics Prize at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival, as well as being pre-nominated for the Foreign Film Oscar.

Thriller
Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga
An exclusive Indian thriller on Netflix in which a flight attendant and her boyfriend, deep in debt, decide to steal some valuable diamonds aboard a plane. What could go wrong? Everything, when they discover that a gang of kidnappers is also on board with their own agenda. Chor Nikal Ke Bhaga is somewhat predictable, and its beginning is a bit slow. However, it fully embraces the absurdity and tension of its premise once the protagonists' plan goes wrong. It's not an essential movie, but it is very entertaining.
