Filmrecensies van Alex Brannan

Either the scene is utterly bland or it is hilariously ill-conceived. Recensie

Lacks the action-packed intensity that the James Bond franchise is known for. Recensie

There is enough of a feel-good story to appease the average viewer, but it is a story with nothing novel in its bones. Recensie

An actor’s film, utilizing its talent to lift up what would otherwise be a tedious experience. Recensie

The moments where Ove’s thick veneer cracks and his gracious inner nature shows are worth drudging through the mess of conventions. Recensie

An ambitious introductory course on U.S. incarceration. Recensie

A film of performance, and boy does it perform. Recensie

Takes the big and the small of the situation and blends them without losing sight of the central figure. Recensie

The rare film with a clear dividing line of quality, and it is a radical shift on that axis. Recensie

Presents a complex and unique understanding of the human psyche post-trauma. Recensie

Plot points are predicated on “chance,” making the entire film feel all the more fabricated. Recensie

A conventional romance narrative wrapped in a lush, vibrant overcoat of musical nostalgia. Recensie

A fun, flawed film. Recensie

A political drama for political drama fans whose lead actress makes the film what it is. Recensie

A monotonous drudge through a premise with no narrative legs. Recensie

It presents a double-layered narrative that, at first glance, is inherently intriguing. Recensie

With its refreshing approach to screenwriting and its powerful lead performances, it is simply not to be missed. Recensie

In its attempt at being profound, something much less. Recensie

A messy film that dawdles where it needs not and expedites where it should develop. Recensie

Not a lazy attempt at profits, is a colossal mishandling of horror convention. Recensie

The entire cast, armed with strong performances, do their best to salvage the film from being a series of hit or miss bits, but it simply is not enough. Recensie

An overlong mess, at times poignant but mostly nonsense strung together in an attempt at something meaningful. Recensie

Plays off the strengths of its two leads to shirk the sanitized, by the book period narrative. Recensie

Heartfelt, adventurous, stunning, and vibrant. Recensie
