Filmrecensies van Ruth Maramis

I admire Durkin’s talent as a filmmaker even though I’m not overly fond of the film. As I mentioned above, there’s a sense of dread throughout, so this one isn’t exactly a pleasant film to watch. Recensie

His story certainly deserves to be told and this film is one of the most chilling but effective political thriller that’ll stay with you long after its opening credits. Recensie

The witty script by Jack Thorne and Bradbeer’s energetic direction sure makes for a delightful adaptation. I don’t even mind seeing more of Enola Holmes’ adventures! Recensie

The Social Dilemma might seem hyperbolic at times, and I feel that is on purpose for a cautionary tale such as this one. Recensie

Considering how confusing the movie is, the 150-minute running time actually doesn’t feel tedious or overlong. I only wish Nolan gave us a bit more for the heart as he did for the head. Recensie

The vibrant direction, dynamic performances, gorgeous cinematography, costumes, production design and general atmosphere of the film creates an immersive quality. Recensie

For a film about one of earth’s brightest minds, I think a film about him that fails to illuminate the man behind the inventions is a missed opportunity. Recensie

I think given the inherently poignant story, it could’ve been more meaty and heart-wrenching instead of a frothy movie with a few overly melodramatic moments peppered in. That said, I still think this is a pretty decent debut from D’Arcy. Recensie

At the heart of it is an engaging story, and an inspiring message against bigotry and racial supremacy that is more timely than ever. Recensie

I think I’d have liked it a lot more if the movie hadn’t been so predictable. Recensie

It’s got a heart as big as the big action pieces, and I’m sure glad to see a group of bad-ass superheroes with such a diverse cast. Recensie

I do enjoy British’s sarcastic humor and there’s plenty of that in this, but what’s different this time is there is a sad incident that gives the film a poignant layer. Recensie

Deerskin is certainly a weird movie, but reading about some of Dupieux’s previous work, this one seems to be the most accessible. Recensie

It’s definitely an intriguing documentary for film fans, especially if you’re a fan of her work. Recensie

I enjoyed this adaptation, but Emma always feels a bit too frivolous for me. Recensie

But it’s truly unfortunate that this movie is as bad as it is given all the elements–story, setting, cast–seemingly in place... Recensie

I don’t know that he’ll win new fans to his cinematic flair, but for those who enjoy his style, I’d say it’s was pretty darn entertaining. Recensie

Rian Johnson got so much flak for The Last Jedi which I actually enjoyed. I’m glad he’s back directing an original story as he’s clearly a gifted storyteller. In addition to the shrewd plot, he manages to inject a not-so-subtle jab about today’s political climate in regards to immigrants. Recensie

Overall, the talented cast elevates Just Mercy slightly above a run-of-the-mill social justice drama. Recensie

This is definitely one of the best literary adaptations... Recensie

It’s not a bad movie per se… I mean the actors did a good job in their roles, production design & special effects are top notch, John Williams‘ music is obviously still iconic, even Abrams’ direction is enjoyable… but at the end of the day, Chris Terrio and Abrams’ script is serviceable at best. Recensie

The main issue I had with the film is the general lack of energy and so much emphasis on melodrama rather than action. Recensie

That said, the movie does have its moments and is well worth seeing for the main cast alone (most notably Stewart). It sure looks gorgeous, boasted by excellent cinematography by Bill Pope, slick production design, and fun action sequences/car chases designed for pure escapism. Recensie

I love a good mystery film that isn’t overly grim and violent, and Motherless Brooklyn certainly fits the bill. It’s not quite as riveting nor utterly brilliant as L.A. Confidential, a 1950s neo-noir that Norton reportedly admire, but this one is still an enjoyable ride. Recensie
