Filmrecensies van Filipe Freitas

Despite the predictable ending and a bashful posture, there are emotions running steadily, and the hope of a happy future ultimately makes us enjoy a drama film that also serves as a showcase for King’s estimable acting capabilities. Recensie

While the talented director keeps the things flowing with the appropriate amount of tension, the lead actors respond with absolute brilliance. Recensie

The only reason to watch The Kindergarten Teacher is Ms. Gyllenhaal’s performance, whose quality makes us resist until it’s possible. Recensie

Has the proper mood but, regardless the different styles, couldn’t surpass the adrenaline infusion of The Raid installments, Evans’ true specialty. Recensie

A word of praise for the energetic performances from Washington and Driver and the awesome score by jazz trumpeter Terence Blanchard. Recensie

Chaganty wanted his film to look intelligently cryptic, but what he achieved was just completely muddled. Moreover, the storyline is naive, contrived, and ultimately nonsensical, all aggravated by the utterly unconvincing performances from Cho and Messing. Recensie

The magnificent score by Justin Hurwitz enhances the floating sensations of a different gravitational acceleration and combines in perfection with Lindus Sandgren’s detailed cinematography. Recensie

The script, smartly and carefully written by Burnham, carries all the sensibility to depict Millennials in a way that is simultaneously funny, unnerving, miserably heartbroken, and honest. It definitely rang true to me. Recensie

The film didn’t touch me in the heart, presenting more inept than satisfactory moments, both drama and music-wise. Recensie

The low-key temperament of the storytelling and the authenticity of the performances are strong elements of a subtle and intelligent film that captures our attention from the very first minute. Recensie

Even though it's all too gut-wrenching and sunless, kudos to a fast and furious Cage, who returns from the dead with an insatiable appetite for vindictiveness. Recensie

If the story is thoughtful and promising, then the editing needed some polishing to avoid unconsidered cuts and precipitate image transitions contrasting clumsily with the sluggish development. Recensie

A powerful encounter of hip-hop music - somewhat displaced and too calculated here - and the racial complications that keep saddening America and the world. Recensie

Its mysterious ways, bolstered with a bit of psychedelic surrealism, makes it notable. Recensie

This blockbuster satisfies in its purpose but doesn’t earn the title of ‘impossible to miss’. Recensie

The complexities do not always succeed, but, as a character study, the film poses some interesting points of view... Recensie

This somewhat cheesy crowd-pleaser offers a great deal of neurotic gossip addressed with annoying pomposity and superfluous multi-cultural fashion. Recensie

Can a brilliant ending save a film? Sure, but I strongly feel this one could have given much more if handled with a little more subtlety. Recensie

There is nothing new or striking here, but rather emphatically emotional, in a film about decisions that never quite convinces in terms of a hypothetical revenge. Recensie

The film shapes into an exhausting melodrama instead of the harrowing, devastating adventure that everybody was expecting. Recensie

There is nothing fanciful or odd in Newton’s story. Recensie

Feels more contrived than astute, having the skilled group of actors working hard to avoid further damage. Recensie

The well-told Upgrade maintains the dystopian vibrancy until the end, compensating the less vivid moments with a subtle dark humor that fits hand in glove. Recensie

Protracted, deficiently paced, and lugubrious, Hostiles eludes the viewer with limited action and redundant scenes... Recensie
