Filmrecensies van Jacob Richardson

This animated sequel has about a million different plot threads, but will make your kids laugh. Recensie

A bizarre space treatise on the cruelty of solitude and pointlessness, told in a way only Claire Denis could. Recensie

Despite doing little with its premise, and even less with its plot, MIB: International is a lot of fun due to the chemistry of its two leads. Recensie

Wild Rose is wildly entertaining, but don’t let that fool you; there is great depth to be found in this piece. Recensie

A sumptuous visual feast anchored in two incredible performances from relatively unknown leads, that stumbles and falters whenever a certain blue magical deity is on screen. Recensie

A perfectly serviceable, if relatively forgettable comedy, that never pushes the boundaries. Recensie

This noir-ish take on the Pokemon property might finally have broken the video game to big screen curse, by realising the in-game stories don’t matter nearly as much as characters. Recensie

Lacking the production quality of a more mainstream film The Extraordinary Journey of The Fakir nevertheless manages to capture some of the fantastical whimsy of the story. Recensie

The window we are given into the life of Gloria Bell is at once beautifully rendered, ambling in pace, and unrepentantly optimistic; much like the character herself. Recensie

A funny, heartfelt rom-com between too mismatched stars that manages, for the most part, to avoid many of the pitfalls of this genre. Recensie

A hell of a mess. Recensie

A harmlessly frothy, upbeat piece of animated entertainment. Recensie

Shazam isn’t perfect, but it is a bundle of fun, tied up in a bright, shiny package. Recensie

Dumbo is a very pretty and, for non-discerning viewers like children, enjoyable film. But it is a film that takes no risks, and dulls every plot thread, emotional beat and memory of the original in its pursuit of normality, and for many that will be a disappointment. Recensie

Us may not be as cohesive as Get Out, but it is still an incredibly well made, terrifyingly scary and deeply meaningful piece of cinema that cements Peele as an auteur. Recensie

An ultimately satisfying thriller, that although often slow feels tense, dramatic and exciting. Recensie

Despite a strong hero turn from Brie Larson, this groundbreaking Marvel film feels predictable and rote. Recensie

A painfully dull, derivative exercise that works hard to erode any joy canines bring you. Recensie

Better than expected, but largely predictable, this true wrestling underdog story will still entertain. Recensie

A stunningly rendered vision that excoriates the US justice system while never losing its roots as a compelling romance. Recensie

At times interminably slow, The Front Runner coasts on the power of its lead and the inherent draw of its story. Recensie

A riveting, engaging and heartbreaking tale that explores the relationship between mother and son. Recensie

Somewhat slow, but tinged with bouts of tension, laughter, pity and reflection, The Mule is a moving and affecting character study that doesn’t plague itself with contrivances like tension. Recensie

A surprisingly funny, heartfelt and emotional journey. Recensie
