Filmrecensies van Alex Brannan

A really good Pixar movie. It is a fairly good superhero movie. As a long-awaited follow up to The Incredibles, it doesn’t stack up as strongly. Recensie

A light, high concept comedy with a loose script and charismatic actors who are playfully working to hide the looseness. Recensie

The numerous issues with Superfly, surprisingly, do not take away from what makes the film compelling. Recensie

Undoubtedly a film whose intensity and psychological weight are palpable, unshakable entities. Recensie

The strong acting, the lavish costume design, the snappy editing. It all adds up. But it isn’t the well-oiled machine that it thinks it is. Recensie

We get a great cast wielding an offbeat, close-quarters action story. Recensie

Does a lot of stuff brilliantly. Recensie

It isn’t style over substance, nor is it narrative over form. It is a seamless integration of great style and great narrative. Recensie

The jokes run thin early. The plot is uninspired and fails hard when it decides to play the heartstrings. Recensie

As much as the tone struggles to mesh, the core of Upgrade is jam-packed with entertainment value. Recensie

A fine little survival picture retelling the story of an undoubtedly resourceful and determined person. Recensie

It has the sense of being a dispassionate and inessential part of this ongoing Star Wars machine. Recensie

Strains to tap into contemporary technophobia, but it never grounds that in the source material that it borrows from. Recensie

Unless you’re a critic who dislikes partisanship even when it lines up with his political views, you will likely either love it or hate it. Recensie

Overall the comedy here is fairly tight. In a cinematic landscape that is bombarded with superhero movies of various quality, Deadpool is the IP we need right now. Recensie

Seeds are sown for characters to have genuine relationships with each other. These are largely abandoned, replaced with lackluster punchlines. Recensie

A no frills thriller that isn’t ashamed of its lack of depth. Recensie

There wasn’t enough juice in the premise to take the plot across the finish line. Recensie

It feels like a contrivance, because it is already a hard sell to buy the basic premise. Perhaps if the jokes were more powerful... Recensie

The revelation of the truth may not be as fun as the journey to it, but there is still a winding experience to enjoy. Recensie

A determined case study of grit yielding to desperation. Its characters act like beautifully imperfect... Recensie

Lives up to the hype if you enjoy the sheer bigness of the created universe... Recensie

It’s all very stylish... Recensie

Showing us comedic characters being driven past their potential. Recensie
