Filmrecensies van Bob Mann

I came out of this film annoyed and rather negative about it, just based on the “unrealism” aspects of the plot as discussed above. But, in retrospect, and with the benefit of distance, this was a really entertaining romp that I should lighten up on! Recensie

If you like this sort of formulaic action film then you might be very content to park your brain at the door, grab a bucket of popcorn and enjoy this one. Recensie

The plot is so utterly predictable you can see where it’s going to go from the get-go. Recensie

It’s more of the same with Book Club 2. Recensie

I have to say that, while I have my reservations, I was impressed at the quality of the acting and the extraordinary film-making on show. It’s a really interesting film that some will love and some will hate. Recensie

I thought this was a well-made film that kept my interest until the very end. Recensie

Is it going to go down as a movie classic? No. But it is a pleasant and enjoyable cinema outing that I think will do well with mums/dads taking their 10-and-up sons/daughters to. Recensie

As a part biopic / part documentary, I really enjoyed the documentary part and the glimpse into Fox’s current medical struggles. I was less of a fan of the way that the biopic part was done, but – hey – that might just be a personal view. Recensie

As a history of the event (#neverforget) it is a well-delivered piece. But the addition of McAveer’s changed perspective makes for a really interesting documentary. Recensie

This is an astonishingly proficient film, and I absolutely loved it. Recensie

This feels like a ‘good film’ with fine acting performances, generally good direction and a very clever and intricate script. But it’s also a challenging watch... Recensie

This is a ‘nice’ and charming little film that tells a story well. And as a lessen in acting, you really can’t do better than examining the work here of Jim Broadbent and Penelope Wilton. Recensie

It’s a fun Marvel outing that will please the fans I think. And it’s certainly a more watchable Marvel movie than we’ve had of late. Recensie

It’s a very SOLID biopic. But there’s no real pizzazz to it. Recensie

Documentaries focused on specific people should help elevate the worthiest of them for broader recognition. And this documentary does just that.o... Recensie

It rollocks along at an excellent clip. It’s funny and engaging and made 100 minutes fly by. If it hadn’t tried to be a bit too ambitious with its storyline, this was well on-course to be a 5* classic for me. Recensie

I enjoyed this one. A great story, told ‘straight’ for once. A reminder of my 17th century history that I have forgotten. And a plush and luxurious looking film. Recensie

This is another of those B-Movies that comes as a really nice surprise. Clever, well-paced and with multiple cunning twists, I can see this thriller being a solid-gold hit with audiences. Recensie

An engrossing watch, I really enjoyed this one and would highly recommend it if you can find it in cinemas still. Or, I guess, watch out for it on streaming soon. Recensie

I enjoyed this far more than I expected to. Hoult and Cage are a blast together and I found the black comedy very much aligned with my own personal funny-bone. Yes, it could have been even better. But my views overall don’t align here with the majority of the mainstream critics on this one. Recensie

It has the makings of a watchable B-movie thriller romp, but the execution is decidedly “meh”. In particular, some script choices seem completely inexplicable and stupid. Recensie

A movie like this is already set up to fail. But when you combine that with some B-grade dialogue and dodgy acting, the movie becomes very poor indeed. Recensie

It was a survivable experience that managed not to grate too badly on me. However, it still felt like being in a tumble dryer filled with sherbet for 92 minutes. But – hey – there are worse ways to go. Recensie

I found this a really interesting film. It is full of interesting insights into the Islamic religion as well as being a tense political thriller. Too tense for some though! As a piece of cinema, it’s really well made. Tarik Saleh (still persona non-grata in Egypt) has clearly crafted here a very personal film. Recensie
