Mr. Awk Ward

By Trisha Leong We’ve all had that “Oh my god what do I do now” moment. Enduring long and cringy silences, explaining a joke to a bunch of people who didn’t get it (and worse, having them still not understand), high-fives left unnoticed, your crush standing beside you as you grapple for something - no, anything! - to say, only to later regret what just came tumbling out of your cheeseburger-filled mouth… Awkwardness is real.

One Night

Written by Ng Li Wei - “I know you.” It’s night-time. A moon has risen over the dimly lit streets and several pedestrians are hurrying home, glancing fearfully up at the thundering sky. A bell rings - a customer entering a convenience store. A boy looks left and right and behind him before he crosses the road - not to look out for cars, but to make sure no one’s following him.

MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: FALLOUT

Written by Fajar binti Benjamin TOM CRUISE. Tom Cruise is an honest-to-God psychopath, there's no denying it. But goddamn if he doesn't frickin’ go for it. Unfortunately, the first and only other Mission Impossible movie I've been subjected to is the second one, and it was so god-awful bad that the idea of seeing another one was incomprehensible to me. A job is a job though, so I went into this movie with all my cringe shields up, prepared to tear it a new one...
