Filmrecensies van Ulkar Alakbarova

Restoring Tomorrow is a worthwhile documentary film about why history should never be erased, because without it there is no future. Recensie

Ryan Gosling as the legendary Neil Armstrong is extremely moving and poignant. Recensie

It’s a brilliant comedy and a great reason to spend your Friday night with dear friends who will appreciate even more what the Book Club has to offer. Recensie

The filmmaker cleverly showcases the struggles the family or the band go through on a daily basis. However, somehow they never lose spirit, determination or the ability to have a positive outlook, which is the true charm of this absolutely masterful piece or art. Recensie

Border from Ali Abbasi stands out from any movie you have seen before – it’s wicked, intelligent, explores humanity and beyond. Recensie

That opening segment is one of the most powerful you will see in any meta-mockumentary, which the entire film is based around, leading everyone to one question... Recensie

James Longley is unapologetic in letting his camera follow every documentary subject to capture their view of Kabul the way it is, their fallen dreams, hopes and the future they don’t see as promising. Recensie

It’s extremely entertaining and absolutely fan to watch. As for the performance, it is indeed quite solid. But it’s the subject matter that will find itself in a win-win situation because we need more challenging movies, broader concepts and something that can puzzle us in a way Diamantino does. Recensie

There’s nothing new in At First Light, yet you watch it as if it has something outstanding to deliver. Jason Scott, perhaps, realized that simplicity is key and tried to avoid all the overloaded clichés this movie could have fallen into as a trap. Recensie

Paul Feig masterfully directs it by allowing the two actresses to do the best they can to portray two strange but rich characters in a way you will never stop admiring them. Recensie

Shot in fascinating black and white, the movie brings its own mood to a level where you as a viewer will be left stunned, if not speechless. Recensie

That, my dear reader, is the performance we all have been looking forward to. What a start of the year! Recensie

Some scenes, unfortunately, were so meaningless that if I had a remote I would’ve switched the screen off. Some jokes, unfortunately, were too offensive to laugh at. Recensie

That said, Phoenix is a slow-burned drama with elements of mystery or even horror. Exceptional direction makes it worthwhile seeing as many times as you want. Recensie

Surprisingly, it was believable, and in a way, presented the harsh truth of poverty, fight for jobs or even for the house people can lose due to the big construction companies wanting to buy the area due to its monetary value. Recensie

Freaks is an excellent fast-paced horror movie that, pretty much, focuses on all sorts of paranoia until details starts to emerge. Recensie

Styx is a brilliant movie that provides food for thought. Recensie

The River misses the aim to become one of the most poignant movies. Of course, trying never hurts, but that is just plain excuse for a movie like this that could have been much better and bigger than it was. Recensie

As for Melisa McCarthy’s performance, in this movie she finally shows her acting chops, displaying that she can manage any type of role and express all sorts of emotions if required. Recensie

Jeremiah Terminator LeRoy is a fun movie to watch and at times even deeply moving, which is the main reason why you should not miss it at all. Recensie

As for the performance, no doubt the entire cast delivered a solid one, and will have your full attention. Recensie

With full of twists, The Wife is a wicked and sometimes very brutal film to watch… The dialogues are heartbreaking and thoughtful at the same time. Recensie

Red Joan surprisingly captures the complex persona of Joan Stanley with simplicity and straightforwardness. Recensie

The character development is fascinating. Recensie
