Filmrecensies van Filipe Freitas

An inspired humor fills the gaps between the numerous cuts perpetrated by the mutants. Recensie

Cleverly written, beautifully enacted, and gripping from the first scene to the last... Recensie

A satire evenly observant and nerve-wracking. Recensie

Feels more fabricated than authentic, dawdling in predictability and producing a sedative effect. Recensie

This drama carries much more than just entertaining punches. Recensie

Even imperfect and with margin to improve, the film looks at love, success, and self-confidence with a mordant cynicism and irony. Recensie

Andrea Arnold’s messiest film with its wobbly narrative and uneven parts, some of them stronger than the whole. Recensie

Can be so boorishly reckless on some occasions and freshly delicious in others. Recensie

A beautiful ode to friendship and human understanding... Recensie

Rich in dark humor, detail and color, as well as marked by a strong narrative... Recensie

A powerful piece of cinema that authenticates Farhadi as the most predominant contemporary Iranian filmmaker. Recensie

Even with some interesting moments, this is a modest pic from a talented director... Recensie

Mendonça Filho holds an unflinching filmmaking style reinforced by a haunting narrative fluency. Recensie

Has acceptable moments of suspense and exhales estrangement all around. Recensie

Observant, insightful, and necessary, reaffirms Ava DuVernay as the powerful voice of the oppressed, as well as a world-class filmmaker. Recensie

This character-driven accomplishment is powerful, portraying life’s contingencies with class, honesty, and an extraordinary sensibility. Recensie

The human portrayed here are deeply cutting and easy to connect with, thanks to the gigantic performances by Washington and Viola Davis. Recensie

Chaining simplicity to irony is part of the secret. Recensie

Its charm and message make us forget the originality it wasn’t capable of showing. Recensie

A minor Dardennes and, probably, their flattest work. Recensie

Unexciting, the film was never too deep and as a consequence, I became indifferent along the way. Recensie

Not every scene works here, yet the unquestionable importance of these women gets the desirable visibility and is not easily forgotten. Recensie

Corrosively biting, surprisingly human, gloriously hardcore, and extremely liberating. Recensie

Cleverly conceived and incredibly acted; a compelling examination of painful lives portrayed with a striking sense of truthfulness. Recensie
