Aantal filmrecensies: 1972 / 1972

Emotionally strong topics like these deserve more affecting outcomes. Unfortunately, all traces of cleverness from Decker's previous films - Madeline's Madeline and Shirley - have been scrubbed away in favor of a serviceable slickness. Recensie
Vividly directed and acted, Kimi is not deprived of some plot swings but, well supplied with panicking situations and oppressive atmospheres, provides a bravura mixture of psychological trauma and crime. T... Recensie
So intent on being dramatic on one side and cool on the other, the film forgets to be entertaining, serving more as TV fodder than as something really worthy of the big screen. Recensie
More humdrum than fascinating, the film is nothing more than a soppy teen-pleaser that, growing dull (the way they unveil and locate the Dragon in the real world is so naive), is liable to strain the patience of adults. I found myself yawning way before the ending. Recensie
The mordant dialogues, apt score, and non-linear narrative render both tense and embarrassing situations, which are frequently fueled by substance intoxication and lust. There are no stall moments, but the manipulation is undeniable. Recensie
The war scenes are often risible, and despite using archive footage of president Emmanuel Macron to its advantage, a good editing would only make it better. France is a bold move but hardly a successful one. Recensie
While the result is not earth-shattering, there's something emotionally and compassionately connective underneath. Recensie
The visuals match the bracing nature of the story, and like Youri, we gravitate with hope, adhering to his universe yet haunted by the desolated corridors, boarded walls, and surprisingly hidden interiors of this ghostly massive structure. Not one single scene goes on for a beat longer than it should; performances and production values are excellent. Recensie
The economical script builds reasonable tension, and the film moves assuredly from incident to incident with a simplicity in the storytelling that makes it seem old-fashioned, but winsomely so. Recensie
The Fallout is a bracing work, which treats the teens in question piercingly and hurtfully. The sensitivity demonstrated to the specifics of each character’s experience is remarkable. Recensie
The only quibble here is the repetition of the footage, but the film flows well, avoiding panegyric artificialities. Recensie
The rhythm of the storytelling is stable, increasing our interest in an emotional story that many will relate to. Recensie
Mired in forced sentimentality, the film never really builds up a great deal of steam but infuses some bursts of anger and humor here and there, leaving a meaningful message to the community and a glimpse of hope for the ones looking for an opportunity to change. Anyway, it’s all too patchy to be classified as a prime work. Recensie
The haunting camerawork, apt score, and flawless acting by the four young debutant leads are vital elements in the bewitchery. The Innocents is a chilling slow burn worth seeking out. Recensie
It’s solid entertainment, signaling that westerns are better when made simple. Recensie
With the power of the images overstepping the dialogues, The Tsugua Diaries gives a wonderful example of artistic freedom, off-the-cuff creativity, microcosmic detail, and mood-induced emotion. Recensie
The understated indeterminacy of the story makes us minimally interested, while the surprises, far from jaw-dropping, make it a passable, calibrated crime thriller. Recensie
Themes like loneliness, reintegration, openness, and compassion are common, but this one brings more, starting off vividly casual before becoming unnervingly earnest, then plaintive and disconcerting, and ultimately mischievous. Recensie
Greene’s documentary might have done a nice job in helping these traumatized men, but the film itself flows heavily, and our attention almost succumbs to its aimless structure and narrative fragmentation. Recensie
As a shattering experience that doesn't stint on uncomfortable scenes, A Hero is another impeccable entry in Farhadi’s rich catalogue of timeless contemporary classics. Recensie
More than mind-blowing, Memoria is an original piece of cinema that, keenly shot and oddly paced, rewards patient viewers with an openness to the intangible. If cinema is about being transported to another realm and dimension, Weerasethakul is unrivaled as a helmsman. Recensie
Sadly, the film is never as good as it should be, lacking energy to thrive and being stretched out by these terrible musical moments put together by the brothers Aaron and Bryce Dessler. This is the second miss in a row by Wright, following last year’s The Woman in the Window. Recensie
Working with the animator Inga Sætre, the Norwegian director and co-writer Yngvild Sve Flikke worked delivers an observant, punchy and highly amusing comedy drama whose result is neither dull nor hackneyed. Recensie
Life choices and mortality; acceptance and repentance; family roots and branches; the earthly and the spiritual… “Dying isn’t simple, is it?”, asks the spirit of Masao’s wife. I Was a Simple Man is honest enough to deserve a peek. Recensie
