Filmrecensies van The Massie Twins

While this isn’t a drastically different interpretation of the classic story, it’s nicely handled, possessing a seriousness and an updated amount of blood that are entirely fitting for a Hammer endeavor. Recensie

It’s the charming machine and his damsel-in-distress who keep the picture afloat, putting a twist on conventional movie romances... Recensie

There’s just not enough originality to justify its existence, save for satiating (or perhaps pandering to) fans of the franchise. Recensie

There’s also plenty of humor, primarily from political contentions, and villainy to match. Recensie

The moments of over-the-top gore are too often drawn out beyond their points of effectiveness, and the supplementary relationship fails to complicate a plot that was designed around just a couple of gross gags. Recensie

It’s not high art, but it’s a surprisingly memorable slasher endeavor. Recensie

Could have used some considerable polishing to make the most of its original, preteen-oriented adventures. Recensie

Perhaps most disappointing of all is the finale, which manages to be outrageously anticlimactic, even with a few twists that audiences might not guess. Recensie

The finale improves considerably when the yuck factor increases exponentially, borrowing a note or two from Dead Alive and from the many teen slashers that boast villains who refuse to die. Recensie

Outrageously deranged, and with a conclusion that leaves a lot up to the imagination, this is one superbly original production. Recensie

The premise is terribly bleak, but Bergeron’s plight manages to be momentarily hopeful, funny, and provocative as well. Recensie

The combination of action, intermittent comic relief makes for a frivolous yet fun diversion. Recensie

The animation style suits the storyline, with the anime versions of familiar roles nicely adapted from their three-dimensional counterparts. Recensie

Thanks to a powerful, stirring score by Justin Hurwitz, these long-awaited, climactic sequences hold considerable weight. Recensie

This emotional account is woefully timely and perpetually relevant. Recensie

The scope is grand enough to hope for a full franchise, but the plot just isn’t unique enough to want to see more of Riddick’s missions. Recensie

It ultimately seems like a lot of nonsense. Recensie

Something unique yet not entirely satisfying. Recensie

It’s an uncommon mix of genuine action and slapstick comedy, complete with a fitting, allegorical message about greed and the human condition. Recensie

This is probably one of the cheapest, tawdriest of all late-night, last-rate exploitation efforts... Recensie

A notable effort... Recensie

Even when A Star is Born is at its most sentimental or manipulative, Gaga remains believable, and her crooning is utterly heartfelt. Recensie

A potent, powerful work, full of tough questions, tougher answers, and outstanding performances. Recensie

Tropes are avoided, substituted instead for a nuanced tale of unanticipated growth and senses of obligation dramatically fulfilled. Recensie
