Filmrecensies van Bob Mann

It’s certainly not as bad as I feared and had some good moments of tension. A relatively fun Saturday night popcorn movie. Recensie

This isn’t your run-of-the-mill story of a rock legend and James Mangold has done a really good job with the material. Anchored by an awards-worthy performance by Timothée Chalomet, it’s well worth your attention, particularly if you are a Dylan fan. Recensie

A classic thriller that feels just about perfect in every respect. Fincher’s film may be (nearly!) 30 years old, but it feels as fresh as if it was made yesterday. Recensie

Sadly, this, for me, is not a good example of the genre. It asked some interesting questions but without really giving satisfactory answers. Recensie

This is a solidly-made film, but I didn’t find it hugely engaging. Recensie

As a comedy, I didn’t find it hilariously funny. As a drama, I didn’t find it dramatically dramatic. Recensie

My main criticism of the film is that, really by necessity given the breadth of its ambition, the story is quite shallow. Recensie

A gloriously anarchic tribute to a bygone era of silent films. Recensie

I wasn’t sure what to expect from this, but found it to be hugely entertaining and ultimately very moving. A nice surprise and recommended, particular for fans of Robbie’s music. Recensie

A splendidly atmospheric version of a classic horror tale that is a delight to experience. Recensie

A Disney offering that has its moments but, for me, is fundamentally flawed. A case of trying too hard to tick off a checklist of gotta includes. Recensie

It’s a lovely bit of work and well worth your time in seeing. Mind you, I’m not sure yet how you would get to see this, but hopefully it will be available through some online outlet in the near future. Recensie

An impressively exciting little slice of action hokum, this is one that I really enjoyed. Recensie

It’s a perfectly well-made documentary about a public figure. However, as the public figure seems to be so nice and well-loved it doesn’t make for a terribly gripping documentary. Recensie

As I’m not a big fan of animated films in general, and particularly not blocky animation like this, this movie left me feeling a little under-whelmed. Recensie

As a film, it had some really bad moments. But having said that, I laughed a lot (not always intentionally) and its goofy charm rather won me round to it a bit. Recensie

A sequel that feels like it’s lazily been thrown together with bits glued together from existing material and pandering to a tick-list of Moana tropes. Recensie

A disappointing Christmas film that throws a huge amount of money at a wall for astonishingly little value. One to avoid. Recensie

Given Ariana Grande has so little movie experience she really knocks the role of Galinda out of the park. It’s a comic work of genius. But equally impressive is Cynthia Erivo in the less showy but more powerful role of Elphaba. Recensie

I thought this was terrific. If you park your brain a bit regarding some of the historical details, this is a hugely enjoyable romp that I found thoroughly entertaining. Recensie

It’s a nice enough little Irish thriller and worth your time. But it never jumped out at me as a must watch the way that Swing Bout did. Recensie

This is a little gem of a movie with a great cast, clever direction and an interesting plot. Recensie

This is a really engrossing true-life-crime documentary that is both a fascinating historical record and also a great tribute to Charlie Bird, who sadly died of MND in March of this year. Recensie

This documentary is never less than interesting throughout and there is one particular moment of SUCH PURE JOY in this documentary that you can’t help but be uplifted by it. Recensie
