Filmrecensies van Alex Brannan

Not a good film, per se. In some instances, it is barely coherent. But it is an experience, one that kept me rapt until the very end. Recensie

More of a comedy than the sci-fi-horror-action hybrid that the franchise is known for. And most of this comedy is groan-worthy, at best. Recensie

Comes off as a derivative true crime film that has been filled to the brim with acting talent to hide the fact that the characters have no character to them. Recensie

An intriguing comic design that yields some smirks, but in total it is a comedy of absurdist pretension with much more bark than bite. Recensie

It all reeks of a certain stock and trade, one in which the audience expects little enough that anything above mediocre will suffice. Recensie

Not entirely unwatchable, but entirely unremarkable. Recensie

A fascinating examination of modern day criminal detection. Recensie

It is clear that, structurally, Kin is a disaster. What it does have going for it is fairly decent acting. Recensie

Puzzle is an insular drama with an interesting protagonist. Recensie

Makes for an interesting concept ill-serviced by under-cooked plotting. Recensie

The dramatic weight of the World War II subject matter has been more effectively weighty before. Recensie

Simply unfunny, The Happytime Murders has so little substance that it is hard to even discuss it. Recensie

A grimy film with little to say for itself. Recensie

A character-driven romantic film that leans into tropes without falling victim to them. Recensie

The humor isn’t funny, and, when it comes down to it, the film wants to be Jaws. Recensie

We are somersaulting toward a resolution that fails to cash in on the immersive storytelling that came before. Recensie

It just fails to strike a balance, and, as such, the comedy often does not land. Recensie

The fuzzy characters doing and saying big-hearted things is all well and good, but it does not remedy the glaring issues in the plot and its messaging. Recensie

There are blockbuster-level action set pieces. Between these sequences, though, the film reads much more flat... Recensie

This is such a simple concept, but Eighth Grade illustrates it with profoundly elegant precision. Recensie

A scrappy, heart-in-its-hand animated film. Recensie

No flab, all action, and unapologetic about it. Recensie

With this film, he might just be saying too much at once. But too many good things is better than none at all. Recensie

It is a sequence like that one that shows us glimpses of The Equalizer, which is easily a more thrilling low-key action film. Recensie
