Filmrecensies van Filipe Freitas

The hero is Mathew Goode, who has an effervescent performance. Sufficient solidness. Recensie

A kind of "indie" documentary, Girl Model makes its point regarding the business of model agencies throughout the world. Recensie

The plot seemed promising at the beginning but never went further than that. Lacking passion, little by little becomes tedious until we feel completely indifferent to what might happen to its characters. Recensie

It gives an insight look at an Australian bourgeois’ family extending its criticism to the society itself. Mature cinema. Recensie

Very entertaining, there are so many things going on here, in this funny and anarchic musical comedy. Recensie

Nothing much here to dig out, except a great performance by Demián Bichir... Recensie

This is nothing more than a forgettable pseudo-thriller. Recensie

Bleak, with strong content, this is another movie to take into account in the very solid career of a remarkable director. Recensie

Definitely not for everyone, the contemplative way of filming and acting may please the fans of the realistic genre but it will be labeled as boring by the ones looking for excitement. Give it a shot. Recensie

The narrative is quite absorbing and its spooky atmosphere result in one of the most satisfying horror movies recently released. Recensie

Certainly this is not the most original movie but encloses every ingredient to be successful - the drama isn’t cheesy; the humor is subtle but efficient; and the action is wild and exciting. Recensie

The problem was maintaining the narrative levels throughout the story. An honest movie denoting some rhythm oscillations. Recensie

It is very hard to watch all this destruction without being affected and for most of the time this is what the movie has to show. Fortunately, the ending bestows signs of hope for the future in some very touching image sequences. Recensie

Magnificently directed with a lyrical style and with many answers to be sought. Recensie

Trishna despite of showing the recurrent realistic approach, wasn’t so sparkling. Some inert moments end up in a final almost amateur-style. The images from India were what moved me most in this film. Recensie

Altiplano delivers artsy images within a well-intentioned story but its approach isn't always totally satisfying. Despite of some narrative issues and the evident eagerness to be art-house, it still worth for its exceptional landscapes and mystic creeds. Recensie

This is a confrontation between French and American cultures that doesn’t take us anywhere. Recensie

I tried to look for some message here, but there isn’t any. A vulnerable plot stuffed with rubbish talk. Recensie

The movie successfully shows the difficulty to separate such stressful work situations from private lives. A tense movie, relying on natural acting and unfolding harsh conclusions. Recensie

The plot isn’t so much of interest and wasn’t so keen as it looked at the beginning. When everything is achieved so easily in a plot, it is normal for me to lose interest in it. In this particular case, we can see its slow fall. Recensie

There’s more here than just fights and shots, with the story revealing some surprising twists. Exhausting, but also an ebullient action movie. Recensie

We are before some interesting character studies in a very dark tale. In some moments we can really feel the strength and potentiality of this story. In others, we are convinced that it could have been better explored. Recensie

The rhythm, mood and even the special effects didn’t grab my attention. Very futuristic, although completely out of balance and predictable. Recensie

Michael is a compelling portrait of a monster, whose sick mind is hidden within an apparently normal life. The subject of this film is particularly strong by itself, but Schleinzer proved to have hands for direction and counted on flawless acting performances. Recensie
