Filmrecensies van Sandy Schaefer

Insightful, for sure, but something of a chore to sit through. Recensie

One icon-exploiting and formulaic Hollywood comedy that manages to clear the (not so challenging) bar that it aims for. Recensie

Offers a real crowd-pleasing experience – one with profound social commentary. Recensie

Unfolds like a decent 3D documentary screened at a museum theater – which ultimately makes it a C-grade theatrical feature. Recensie

Offers a witty and heartfelt princess fairly tale with creative musical elements and some visual panache. Recensie

What saves the film is Lemmons’ ability to leave her personal stamp on the material, occasionally resulting in a movie that feels like the work of a true auteur... Recensie

Dench and Coogan's work together is enough to accommodate many of the flaws in storytelling. Recensie

An elegant work of storytelling, which manages to make a thoughtful statement about the current demographic of older Americans. Recensie

Works best as an uplifting viewing experience that showcases McConaughey and Leto’s great performances. Recensie

Feels like the result of a meeting among studio executives, who just threw together every idea they could imagine. Recensie

Voids feeling like cheap exploitation, but Ridley’s script reduces the evils of slavery to a concept that isn’t challenging... Recensie

A work of art that impresses as a competent example of minimalistic storytelling, yet still feels too cold and distant... Recensie

Supposed to be bad, but it’s also supposed to be entertainingly dumb and loony – which is where it falls short. Recensie

A respectable adaptation that most moviegoers (young and old) will be able to appreciate... Recensie

The absence of decent intellectual/emotional payoff ultimately make the overall viewing experience too manipulative. Recensie

Succeeds as an enthralling and visceral concert movie viewing experience... Recensie

Mostly a harmless fantasy and isn’t offensively backwards-thinking. Recensie

There’s not nearly enough quality material to make Battle of the Year recommendable... Recensie

A commendable examination of addiction, sex and the nature of grown-up relationships... Recensie

Besson once again proves that he is a storyteller who knows how to produce European pop-art cinema... Recensie

Solomon’s direction is so amateurish that Getaway fails to even provide serviceable B-movie thrills... Recensie

There’s enough innovation and enthusiasm present to make it worth recommending to gore-hounds and hardcore horror lovers. Recensie

Part lackluster biopic, part ham-fisted historical allegory... Recensie

Ends up feeling like little more than an (often) dull and nearly-soulless cash grab. Recensie
