The Map That Leads to You
The Map That Leads to You is a glossy, wanderlusty, and romantic flick that pairs Madelyn Cline, who plays plan-hungry Heather, with KJ Apa as a breezy Kiwi. The film is an adaptation of the book by J.P. Monninger and has been directed by Lasse Hallström. It has a stunning European backdrop, lots of chemistry, and definitely pulls on some heartstrings and jerks some tears. But, it feels a little rushed at times, and some of the acting is a little overdone. Watch on Prime Video.
Las Muertas (The Dead Girls), Season One
Netflix’s Las Muertas dives into Mexico’s grim 1960s underworld, where the Baladro sisters run a brothel. Based on Jorge Ibargüengoitia’s novel, it’s a fictionalised true crime tale heavy on sex, betrayal, and melodrama. Paulina Gaitán is magnetic as Serafina, torn between empire and passion, while Arcelia Ramírez simmers as her calculating sister. The mix of dark humour, violence and heavy sex scenes won’t be for everyone. Still, it’s a binge-worthy descent into corruption. Chaotic, provocative, and never dull.
