Filmrecensies van The Massie Twins

The music and the basic plot are still exceptional, but this modernization can’t come close to capturing the magic of its three-decades-older inspiration. Recensie

Though the majority of the players are unmemorable, it’s admittedly amusing to see so many returning stars and cameos. Recensie

The presentation here is one of regular tedium; no matter the importance of this subject, or the need for certain audiences to absorb it, this production is a tremendous bore. Recensie

Though the premise is entirely original, it’s thoroughly messy and occasionally nonsensical. Recensie

It’s all a touch too simple and uninspiring, despite an undoubtedly wry script. Recensie

Hilu may not have been the most important artist to scrutinize, but Golod nevertheless does a commendable job of making him a cinematic figure. Recensie

It ought to end the way that it does, cinematically shifting tragedy into fulfillment, but the journey is tremendously ineffectual. Recensie

Despite the regular violence, the scaly creature costumes, the mad scientist, and the otherworldly voodoo, the film isn’t creative enough to hold much interest. Recensie

Though the sets and locales for the first few numbers are engaging, the songs themselves are largely minimal and forgettable. Recensie

There isn’t much of a story, instead resorting to the lens simply loitering around the minimal enterprises of an Italian hood and his connections. Recensie

The premise is essentially an elaborate, big-budget Star Trek episode, full of side missions that do absolutely nothing other than segue to other side missions, until a final showdown is imminent. Recensie

Fully embracing car culture, yet without the over-the-top slang abused in the previous picture, this third chapter dispenses with the undercover cop missions and action-packed showdowns with cartel kingpins to dwell on a specific car community and racing scene that appears initially more grounded than before. Recensie

Though it’s still a cops-and-robbers type of premise, little about it feels as if a genuine endeavor at crime drama. Recensie

However, even as the plot begins to almost identically resemble Point Break, it’s evident that the real purpose of this production is fast-car porn. Recensie

Even with the potency of the drama, there’s something missing here, which prevents the film from being wholly absorbing. Recensie

It may take a touch too long to reach its stunning climax, but it’s well worth the wait. Recensie

In the end (as unnecessarily protracted as it is), however, it’s the characters and their relationships that are worth rooting for and observing... Recensie

It’s demented and not for everyone, but it’s nevertheless entertaining, original, and unforgettable. Recensie

Though Pacino delivers an iconic performance, the pacing here is largely off, as it builds, mostly suspense-free, to an ending that is already known, thanks to the opening moments. Recensie

Arachnid is mostly unoriginal and uninspired, but it isn’t always a visual disappointment, managing a few moments of icky fun. Recensie

Its mix of gore and goofiness is good enough to conceal moments of missed potential, resulting in a moderately creative, undoubtedly frivolous, generally engaging horror-comedy hybrid. Recensie

Nothing about The Super Mario Bros. Movie is game-changing, but it’ll be difficult for fans to ignore the entertainment value... Recensie

Yet with special visual effects by Ray Harryhausen, and incredibly fitting music by Bernard Herrmann, the film demonstrates a classic fantasy premise (perhaps reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland) full of worthwhile lessons about morality and human nature. Recensie

Despite the intrigue of the manipulation and backstabbing, it can’t help but to be largely spurious in its feeling; the youthful cast isn’t fully able to persuade of motives, realizations, and, ultimately, the outcome. Recensie
