It’s a sorrowful account with no real winners, but one you just have to see and is a series that doesn’t require too much investment of your time. Recensie
This will probably fail to strike a chord with many traditionalists and Shakespeare-phobes alike, but the Bard would be proud. Recensie
I said at the top that it’s fascinating, frightening and funny. You can add fearless and funky to that list, as it’s definitely not afraid to challenge people’s perceptions from either side of the divide. Recensie
As expected, it’s already stirred up the everlasting hornet’s nest of historical inaccuracies, but, as usual, how much that matters depends upon how much else the film in question gets right. Recensie
One thing’s for sure is that this is entertaining and thought-provoking stuff, and could (briefly) unite the staunchest of remainers and leavers. Recensie
The acting and direction are more than capable of keeping a tight ship if you’ll pardon the pun, and the constant changes in mood and energy are testament to this. Recensie
Very disappointing, and that's no joke. Recensie
The humour is often naughty but never borders on crude, which means the movie sits nicely in-between sweet and spicy – not too innocent that it gets soppy or overly sentimental. Recensie
Sometimes, even Shane Meadows struggles to juggle fact and fiction. Recensie
This is sci-fi that presents a neat idea but ultimately bites off more than it can chew, and so while it’s one hell of a journey for our hero, it’s not so much for us. Recensie
In terms of production, editing, cinematography and the rest, there’s not that much to write home about at first glance. However, it’s not overly long (a little over 80 minutes) and is put together and presented in a way that means it never tires and really gets the message across, with enough context to ensure that we get it. Recensie
Everything is so intricately woven and plays with your mind so deftly, that you’re never sure at times who you should be rooting for – which goes for all four main characters. Recensie
Whether or not this is more movie than documentary, vice-versa or 50-50, should be subjective, and therein lies another positive. Recensie
Pennywise: The Story of IT should be applauded for its honesty, as the various talking heads aren’t afraid to criticise the movie even though it’s gone on to do them very proud in the ensuing years. There’s so much more to this documentary that it’s liable to convert more than the odd cynic. Recensie
It Snows in Benidorm is indeed a strange one; not particularly heart-warming, thrilling or emotional. Yet it suggests enough of these adjectives – and more besides – to see it through the few hitches in the script and direction. Recensie
A great pity that the audience is kept in the shade for almost an hour. Recensie
As the title of this review says, A Sexplanation entertains and informs. That’s never an easy assignment, but filmmaking that’s as courageous as it is comedic always helps. Recensie
Unlike the man himself, the film probably won’t take any awards or accolades; but much like this story of a gifted footballer’s fall from grace, it’s laden with sadness. Recensie
All in all we have a film that manages to be highly innovative on a low budget – almost certainly the biggest triumph of substance over style you’re likely to see this year. Recensie
Once the surrealism dies down a bit – just shy of two-thirds of the way through – it becomes more watchable, but it’s all a bit too late by then. Recensie
The editing’s a little bit haphazard from time to time, although the direction keeps the tempo travelling nicely along. There’s also the right amount of time and focus spent on each individual at different stages of the film, so that we never lose track of the other two, or reach saturation point with any of the trio’s tales. Recensie
Even if you’re not a fan of documentary films, this is definitely one to stick with, particularly as it relates to issues pertinent the world over. Recensie
