Filmrecensies van Hope Madden

Director Donovan Marsh’s film is not unwatchable. It’s shallowly packaged derivative entertainment, boasting passable water scenes and hand-to-hand action choreography that’s entirely adequate. Recensie

The result is a respectful, fun and creepy experience meant to be shared with a crowd. Recensie

Equally on-target is the tension about sharing holidays with politically opposed loved ones, as well as the image of our irrevocably altered news consumption. But beyond that, The Oath doesn’t offer a lot of insight. Recensie

The two actors again share a natural rapport that makes you a believer. Recensie

The jarring quiet, the stillness and vastness are captured with reverence and filmed beautifully. Recensie

Not a bad movie. It’s fun, competently made entertainment. And a disappointment. Recensie

While a couple of the attractions are fun, the main problem with Hell Fest is that it is not scary. Recensie

Those are small successes in a film that squanders a lot of talent and all of our time. Recensie

All of it’s empty, of course: lurid and stylish, pseudo-feminist and pretend-woke. Recensie

There is utterly forgettable fun here, mainly thanks to Black and Blanchett, but the intended audience is a little tough to gauge. Recensie

A fresh and believable take on a very old, oft-told story, so that counts for something. Recensie

There’s a lot of coasting going on in The Predator. A lot of boxes being checked—sometimes checked with flair, but they’re still the same old boxes. Recensie

It’s too bad, because as a showcase for performances, White Boy Rick excels. It just can’t entirely decide what it wants to accomplish with its story. Recensie

What you’ll remember is Close, delivering, as is her way, a tour de force performance that may finally land Close her own glittering acknowledgment. Recensie

With a slight, sometimes silly storyline and an awful lot of atmosphere, Hardy manages an entertaining if forgettable 90 minutes. Recensie

The film is much more than that. And also much less. Recensie

It’s unfortunate because there is an awful lot of talent and aesthetic going to waste here. Recensie

The film is raunchy. It amounts to 90 minutes of profane, DNA-spewing nastiness with very little story to redeem it. I’m pretty sure that’s the point. Recensie

More than anything, Slender Man is just boring. And he shouldn’t be. Recensie

Yes, there are laugh out loud moments in this film, but there are far more rallying cries. Recensie

Is nowhere near as awful as the trailer made it out to be. Recensie

Burnham’s as keen to the strangulating social anxieties of middle school as he is to the shape-shifting effects of technology. Recensie

There are laughs—some of them tossed with a surprisingly flippant sense of the morbid—and energy galore, but it’s all a kind of sugar rush. Recensie

So much of the film goes very, very right—thanks in large part to another award-worthy performance by Phoenix. Recensie
