Filmrecensies van Bob Mann

This is a solid sports-oriented biopic that is never less than interesting. Recensie

The world-building here is really good. Recensie

I watched this lightweight piece of fluff while doing the ironing. But, imho, it is hardly worthy of being an ironing film, let alone a sit down and watch film. Recensie

Occasionally I feel I’m swimming against the tide with my reviews and this is one such case. Perhaps with a second viewing I might like it more. But I rather doubt it. I think, for whatever reason, this one just didn’t quite click with me. Recensie

A well-made film with a good story that kept me absorbed and invested throughout its running time. Recommended. Recensie

I just loved this film. Rarely can I sit in the cinema and be utterly delighted with the story, but for me this was near perfect. Recensie

It’s a wonderfully put together film and a strong candidate already for my films of the year 2024 list. Recensie

But forgetting that this is a remake, and focussing on the film as a standalone Mean Girls musical. This is a musical comedy that had moments that really worked and were funny, but a lot that didn’t. Recensie

It’s really great, if harrowing, to watch this on the big screen again. Recensie

It is certainly a gruelling and at times upsetting watch. But as a true story of hope and faith over adversity it is an EXTRAORDINARY tale and a wonderfully well-made film. Recensie

It’s a Statham movie! You get what you expect! A lot of mindless violence with bad guys and sometimes whole FBI teams of good guys being beaten senseless by Statham using only his muscles. It’s absurd… but it’s quite fun at the same time. Recensie

It’s an astonishing film to look at. Recensie

Like I said, maybe I’m a bit biased but this one was gently delightful. Recensie

Although directed by Pierre Morel, the director of Taken, this is utter hokum. Find Romancing the Stone or Jewel of the Nile and watch them again instead. Recensie

I *think* lovers of rom-coms will largely go for this one and have fun. Recensie

I found it to be a solid and well-made biopic that I would definitely like to give a second watch. Recensie

A fun film that has been long in the gestation. Next Goal Wins is certainly worth catching on the big screen…. a fun trip for families with older kids looking for a New Year cinema visit. Recensie

It’s not bloody Shakespeare. But what it tries to do, it does perfectly well. An enjoyable romantic diversion of a film. Recensie

It’s a well-made film, with a stunning central performance by the 25-year-old Cailee Spaeny. But it’s hardly a film that fills you with festive cheer. Recensie

I know that many people view Chicken Run as a masterpiece and are loathe to watch this one for fear of dissapointment. But I don’t think they need avert their gaze. It’s obviously not as fresh as the original, and people will no doubt miss the original, and much-loved, original voiceover stars. But it’s a pretty decent family film. Recensie

It’s a very bog-standard action film, over-ruled by CGI effects, under-used star-power, weak character development and a convoluted plot. Recensie

I never thought that I would give 4*s to a Japanese-language Godzilla movie. But it really is impressively good stuff and eminently watchable. Recommended for a fun night out. Recensie

This is a terrific movie that will be of particular interest to the like-minded ‘silver-dollar’ community of older film-goers. ... Recensie

I really enjoyed the first film and enjoyed this one even more. A really great rollicking adventure yarn. Recommended. Recensie
