Movie reviews of Niels Matthijs

Impeccable styling, solid acting and a unique balance of drama and mystery. Review

Walks a fine line between accomplished cinema and maverick nihilism and succeeds with deceptive ease. Review

Kawamori presents a worthy and classy tribute to the genius of Miyazawa... Review

Witty, smart, well-made, pure and most of all unique. Review

Looks astounding, Itoh's source material is handled with the proper respect and so is the audience. Review

It's somewhat of a mess of influences, but the film itself always feels coherent and solid. Review

It's quite black and deadpan, also a little absurd, but never as extreme as seen in Ming-liang Tsai's films. Review

A simple romance about two people who are behaving like alternating magnets. Review

A bit too outrageous for commercial audiences and a smidge too extreme for your classic arthouse fan. Review

Brutal, action-packed and a bit mad in the head. Review

A very fun, diverse and surprising collection of shorts. Review

You have to appreciate a special kind of weird to like a film like this... Review

The narrative isn't exactly complex, but there's a lot of it and the film packs a couple of nice twists to boot. Review
