Filmrecensies van Alex Brannan

The conundrum is how to reconcile the poor narrative construction and the sublime technical craft at work here. Recensie

A dark comedy with a lot of clever writing embedded into it. Recensie

Lacks a forward momentum that justifies the wait to the final sequence... Recensie

Strictly in comparison to the other films, Fifty Shades Freed is a masterpiece. In comparison with any other film, it is an insult. Recensie

It is generically conventional and generally uninteresting. It is competently directed, for the most part... Recensie

The story that can be parsed from this conglomeration of tropes is not even worth a cursory glance. Recensie

A film littered with sadists... Recensie

A fantastical film with charm and visual verve. Recensie

From the acting, to the direction, to the camera work, to the costumes, to the sets, to the sound design, to the music, the film is first-rate. Recensie

When the film isn’t over-compensating with its action, it serves up drama pretty well. Recensie

There is enough here in the performances and central relationship (and short runtime) that keep the film from being entirely tired. Recensie

Effectively balances heart and humor to create quality children’s entertainment. Recensie

Shows plenty of promise—certainly showing that Spielberg remains at the top of his form. Recensie

The pieces don’t stack up to something worthy of a full-ticket price. Recensie

An astonishing film. Recensie

May not be original or exciting from a narrative standpoint, but it is a beauty of a film to behold. Recensie

And that is exactly what it is: magical. Recensie

The problem is that the film would be dead without her. Recensie

Gary Oldman is the best Churchill the casting director could have asked for, but he alone isn’t going to make the film a masterpiece. Recensie

By the end of the film, none of it feels particularly impactful. Recensie

Characters are drawn as simply as the themes they espouse, and no amount of singing can hide this fact. Recensie

As the movie progresses, it becomes more rote and dramatically inert. Recensie

Any good will the initial premise set up is no longer visible. Recensie

The action sequences are less emotionally poignant as the film goes along... Recensie
