Movie reviews of Jeffrey Rex Bertelsen

A tribute in the form of a mostly enjoyable comedic biopic that works best when it is as silly as the satirical magazine would like it to be. Review

A big acting showcase for Gary Oldman, and his excellent performance does elevate the film immensely. Review

Heartbreaking, life-affirming, and absolutely devastating. But it is also one of the reasons why I like this show so much. Review

In spite of the film’s promising premise and the capable leading man, The Open House is a disappointing missed opportunity. Review

Isn’t very memorable, even though some truly stellar performances keep it from being forgettable. Review

A watchable but watered down, inadequately executed biopic with fewer laughs than one might expect from a Jack Black film. Review

It indicates that Guillermo Del Toro is the modern maestro of fantasy storytelling on the big screen. Review

The film goes to show that the most creative minds can make wonders out of even the greatest obstacles... Review

Those issues did not ruin what was otherwise a very entertaining film dominated by strong performances left, right, and center. Review

A perfectly well-meaning musical, even though it is historically inaccurate. Review

Looks fantastic, it has a great score that is perfectly appropriate for the location, and some rather intense and upsetting scenes... Review

Surprisingly dull and a huge letdown. Review

A thought-provoking exploration of heroism, legacy, accepting change, and learning through loss. Review

An absurd and intelligent laugh-out-loud takedown of everything from political correctness to narcissistic privileged individuals. Review

A fantastic and important period-piece that tackles difficult issues with an astute touch. Review

Coster-Waldau’s performance is what sets this film apart from the pack of prison rehabilitation dramas. Review

It is, at times, fun to watch and charming. Review

A compelling exploration of brotherly love that is undoubtedly rewatchable. Review

Another successful Yorgos Lanthimos film that deals with distinctly bleak themes... Review

Easy to love – a huge improvement on Thor: The Dark World. Review

A monstrous mash-up of a ‘lifetime movie’ and an assassination thriller. Review

I was particularly touched by Sandler and Stiller’s work here, but every actor and actress in here brings it. Review

Yet another forgettable Pirates-sequel. Review

A bland and dull Scandinavian noir film... Review
