Filmrecensies van Niels Matthijs

Shadow's eye-popping visuals amaze from start to finish and with all the other elements adequately covered there are plenty of stand-out scenes that have the potential to become pillars of the genre. Recensie

A unique experience, an amalgam of three different timelines that come together to create one dramatic romance. If you like Aronofsky's work, just watch it, it you can't stand the man, chances are this won't be for you either. Recensie

A fun, creative and modern coming of age drama, fueled by a strong drive to do things differently. Recensie

Han created a sprawling and aesthetically pleasing futuristic world with enough visual prowess to catapult you seamlessly through its 100 minute running time. Recensie

The Machinist thrives on a strong and gloomy atmosphere, intriguing characters and a stand-out performance. It's a film that goes beyond its novelty value and delivers a solid experience. Recensie

Features sprawling animation, an amazing art style and some wacky action, making it a blast from start to finish. Batman fans beware, anime fans rejoice. Recensie

A film for people who can handle weird and nonsensical comedy with a dash of horror. It's a crazy film, full of oddball characters, strange conversations and overstated emotions, executed in such a way that it becomes madly funny. Recensie

There is not a single element out of tune, the styling is lush and delicate, the action is spot on and every single scene is memorable. It's a must see for fans of crime cinema. Recensie

At its core it's a pretty straightforward comedy, but one that revels in its ability to embrace the weirdness and discomfort of a certain moment and stretch it to its extreme. Recensie

An easy recommend if you like films that don't conform to the norm, even so that doesn't mean you'll end up liking this one. Recensie

Zhang delivered a unique film that may not have fully matured yet, but is sure to convince some with its youthful enthusiasm. Recensie

It's a little mad, a little showy and often a bit incoherent, but in the end it's a hell of a ride. Recensie

Mongol isn't visionary, nor is it very original. It is really well made though... Recensie

A fountain of creativity, an alluring mindfuck and a touching love drama all wrapped into one. Recensie

A film that feels creative and original, but is also sweet, warm and comfortable at the same time. Recensie

Well recommended if you're looking for something small and intimate. Recensie

Extremely stylish, sports superb performances and combines smarts with relevance. It's a well thought-out mix of genres that dazzles from start to finish. Recensie

It's not Sono's most definitive film, but it's solid proof that he can handle more commercial projects... Recensie

If you take the silly premise for granted, there's actually a rather large variety of comedy on display here and even though not every joke will hit, a lot of them do. Recensie

A film that's rich in atmosphere, beautifully animated and with just the right amount of depth... Recensie

The presentation is flawless, the killer is grotesque and the finale is brutal. Recensie

An absolute stunner, an audiovisual experience that dragged me into its world and didn't let go until the final frame faded and the last note died. Recensie

While Left Bank may not be the most daring of films, the execution is pretty flawless, something that is absolutely key for a solid genre film... Recensie

It's different, fun, it looks great and its overall very creative. Recensie
