Filmrecensies van Bob Mann

As well as some farcical knock-about fun (the opening segment in the shop is splendid) there is a much darker vein of humour running throughout. Recensie

This is a genuinely interesting movie: quirky and full of innovation. Recensie

A cute romance film, with the normal ups and downs of the genre. Recensie

Given Renny Harlin is behind this one, the movie is pretty disappointing. Yes, it has a few moments of tension that work. But on the whole it is an unscary and hackneyed “cabin in the woods” movie that adds nothing new to the genre. Recensie

Epic, Wild, Bonkers, Imaginative, Exciting, Inventive, Funny: it’s everything you could want from a big-screen action adventure. Recensie

Instantly forgettable horror offering that only very occasionally moved my suspense needle a fraction. It’s certainly not the worse film of the genre that I’ve seen (and there’s no doubting the enthusiasm of the young cast). But, even if you are into teen-slasher pics, this is still a ‘wait to catch on streaming’ type of film and not worthy of your cinema dollar. Recensie

It has some truly lovely moments that made me laugh, made me cry a bit and made me go “Ahhh”. But I can’t honestly say that I was blown away with it. Recensie

I thought this was a really cracking adventure film, brilliantly realised and well-paced. Recensie

I really struggled with my rating of this one. Part of me found it tedious, dull and – yes – slightly pretentious. But there is no doubting the mood that is built up through the film’s leisurely pace. Then, with its surprise twist ending, this is a film that will stay with me for a very long time. Recensie

I went into this with low expectations. I was expecting it to be grim… then it was Grimm… and much better! I found myself really quite enjoying it. Recensie

Rose Glass has cemented her reputation here with a noirish thriller full of memorable imagery and characters. There are some eye-catchingly gory scenes in here that also stay in the mind long after the credits have rolled! It’s an impressive film that, in the main, I enjoyed very much. Recensie

A real crowd-pleaser of a movie that will appeal to adults and mature older children. The film is engaging, exciting and will leave a smile on your face. Recensie

I know horror – even horror with a comedic twist like this – is not for everyone. But I had an absolute blast with this film. It’s a bit of a B-movie, but brilliantly done. Recensie

I mean…. it’s OK. But its nothing I won’t forget in a few months time. Recensie

Monkey Man is a cracking little action film, full of wit and surprises. Recensie

Is this the best tennis-set film ever made? Yes, I think it probably is. Although overlong, the film sizzles with energy. This is both physical (with sweat cascading into the lens at various points) and sexual (with palpable tension between the three corners of the love triangle). A cracking film that came as a real surprise. Recensie

It’s a road movie with a gritty and memorable set of vignettes that will stay in my mind for a long time. Recensie

It has a few rough edges. But it is certainly worthy of a watch. Recensie

It’s a movie that knows it’s schlock comedy/horror and leans well into that. Recensie

This is not the best biopic ever made. But its not the worst either. It entertained and informed without ever breaking out to be exceptional. Recensie

A well-made docu-drama anchored by some teriffic acting performances. Recensie

This story is so bone-numbingly awful. Recensie

It’s not terrible. If you want a fairly mindless bit of hokum with a twinkly Brosnan, then there are far worse films you could watch... Recensie

For once this is a good steal! The film is glossy, tense, Hitchcockian fare and I thoroughly recommend it for lovers of psychological thrillers. Recensie
