Aantal filmrecensies: 700 / 700
Opties
It follows such a stark, Scorsese-esque display of violence that it is an empty gesture. It is a creative flourish without any soul. Recensie
We get characters which are sympathetic with ease, and we get a story which is thoroughly compelling until the very last frame. Recensie
It may be cliched to refer to beautiful-looking films with the phrase “every frame is a painting,” but in the case of Robert Eggers’ latest, The Lighthouse, many of the shots are picturesque. Recensie
The Platform is an entertaining, grisly genre picture, but it doesn’t fully escape from its own puzzle box. Recensie
Maddin’s use of old aesthetics is motivated in some way. Here it feels like a gimmicky choice that hides the inconsistencies in the film’s construction. Recensie
Long story short: VHYes is a hilarious, delirious ride through a 1980s broadcast hellscape littered with incongruities and tonally pitch perfect comic delivery. Recensie
The performances are engaging. The Vast of Night is a stellar debut for Patterson, and it is a fun, low-key science fiction film. Recensie
After Midnight is a film with valiant aims but a stumbling execution. Recensie
For fans of the sport, there will certainly be kernels throughout that make the film worth investing in. For the uninitiated, there is some perspective given to the many layers involved with the profession. But it doesn’t go deep enough in either direction of its narrative focuses—Ian’s personal life and the professional life. Recensie
Night Has Come has some poetic and cinematic import. The integration of archival film begs to be studied further. But even at 56 minutes it feels too lengthy. Recensie
It blends tones with a deft directorial hand, and it never stops being entertaining. Recensie
The heartwarming message is not lost on me; it resonates to a degree where the ending is emotionally satisfying. And the comedy shines through in enough moments. It just lacks the unification of tone, a hurdle that if cleared could have propelled Jojo Rabbit into the more rarefied realm of satire that it is shooting for. Recensie
Amigo may not have the perfect execution of its narrative, but Oscar Martin has an aesthetic sense that is extremely promising. Recensie
What stays with you at the end of the film may be a small combination of these aspects or a certain combination of scenes, but these pieces add up to an enriched whole that is bursting at the seams with the spirited life of humanity. Recensie
If it is a funhouse you’re looking for, then It: Chapter Two may excite just as much as its predecessor. Muschietti clearly cares about how scenes are crafted and blend into an experience of bumps and jumps. But even the jump scares are bland. The imagery is less gripping. And you won’t be presented with much more than this mechanical funhouse. Recensie
But Charlie Says is an engrossing look at psyches which are difficult for people on the outside to understand. The film may be a thriller, and nearly a horror film in its climax, but the time spent with the women makes for a psychological drama that is fascinating. Recensie
Ready or Not is an exciting and witty addition to the horror comedy genre. This is largely due to the script and the excellent cast. Recensie
47 Meters Down: Uncaged is grating, dull, and uneventful. Recensie
The Angry Birds Movie 2 is not particularly impressive. It advances its protagonist’s arc by taking a step back, and its plotting is overbearing for the narrative scope. And ultimately, it isn’t all that funny. Recensie
This lack of discussion in a film so pointedly about political ideology makes Luce feel somewhat hollow. The performances carry the weight of the talky script in a way that makes this appear like a psychological thriller. But it isn’t really a thriller. And it isn’t thematically rich enough to be what it sets out to be. Recensie
People may talk about that raunchy new comedy where 10-year-old boys swear and ride a sex swing (how scandalous!), but it isn’t a particularly lively or fulfilling comedy experience. Recensie
It is bulky and slightly overlong. It hits onto a somewhat odd tone with how it decides to resolve some of its characters’ arcs (which leads to an even odder sequel-baiting ending). But it is also effectively composed. The character designs are well-executed. Recensie
I guess the easiest place to leave a conversation about The Souvenir is to, in summary, call it complicated. Some already consider it one of the best films of 2019, and I cannot counter this opinion. Recensie
Yet, while the film does fail to completely craft a coherent two-hour film that can both provide the audience a glimpse at the joy in Javed’s heart when he hears Bruce Springsteen and a glimpse at the pain experienced in Thatcher’s Britain, the final message of the film allows for a resolution where both can still exist, albeit unevenly.
