Filmrecensies van Ulkar Alakbarova

Like a Cat on a Highway turns into a really magical, cute and an important piece the North American viewers deserve to see across the provinces, which has one important message to deliver across the globe. Recensie

Compulsion is far from being a masterpiece or even a decent piece, but it’s worthwhile seeing. Recensie

The Place is a truly remarkable piece that will make every viewer feel comfortable, relaxed and trusted as if it was one little paradise where everything impossible becomes possible. Recensie

It’s an impressive, enjoyable, nail-biting piece that is amazingly engaging, intriguing and superbly entertaining, even though there was nothing to laugh at whatsoever. Recensie

Couch Potatoes ends up as another decent family drama presented by RAI Cinema of Italia. It cleverly captures Giorgio’s struggle, never shies away from emphasising a father’s fears and how it sometimes can be like a scrambled egg because of his son who he loves so much. Recensie

As there are bigger questions than what Hostages could possibly answer, it was still a nice attempt to emphasise the value of freedom and why it cannot be compromised by any amount of money available in a bank account. Recensie

Abducted in Plain Sight is a truly sad story that should be followed closely. It draws a thin line of truth and lie, trust and distrust and mistakes that can be a huge catalyst to something more horrifying than it is right now. Recensie

But this film has much more than that to offer, with all those mind-blowing facts, I should say, is a journey I wish, my dear reader, you will have enough courage to embark yourself on. Recensie

The Stranger is one of those rare documentary films that you will never get bored watching. As it revolves around a true crime, the filmmaker had a great strategy in place to tell the story so flawlessly. Recensie

It teaches to be good, to love genuinely, gratitude, honesty, discipline, to not discriminate children or anyone, acceptance, nurturing of the human personality, and more importantly, it emphasises that nothing is greater than human touch, hug and communication. Recensie

It has a simply splendid storyline about love, identity, courage and why the ability to be free from prejudice is a true medicine to happiness you will wish Johan to find a way to have by the end of his journey. Recensie

Adrift is a suspenseful, at times, slow-burning survival drama that drifts towards an emotionally devastating end. Recensie

Call Her Ganda is not an easy walk you think you can take as if you were in the park. The film forces you to see the dark side of society, military and the impact it has on the minds of those who did not get the chance to get enough education and respect. Recensie

Let the Sunshine In is an absolute delight to watch. Astounding direction, strong performances, dialogues, music, and in fact the entire film is a lost and found treasure that must be held as a last chance of humanity to survive. Recensie

1985 is very moody and beautifully performed by the entire cast; it is an exceptional narrative with deep meaning. Recensie

Grimsey is a piece of film that might make anyone feel lonely. Recensie

Silvana is one of the most extravagant and crowd-pleasing documentary feature about the Swedish rapper Silvana Imam, her journey, life and the change she wants to see in this world. Recensie

A Kid Like Jake is carefully crafted story that reaches right to the core of the problem, delivering what it intends right from the beginning. Recensie

While Octavio is Dead is far from being called a masterpiece, through its outstanding performances, sensual soundtrack and solid direction from Sook-Yin Lee, it turns into a solid piece that’s worthwhile seeing. Recensie

Evening Shadows is an astounding film with a charming touch. It’s so sweet and harmless it can warm any heart. Recensie

It touches quite a few complicated concepts and carefully explores the topic of pedophilia through suggestions and dialogues, superbly performed by Avi Malka, Neta Shpigelman and Noa Biron as Effi. Recensie

A Woman Captured is an incredibly intriguing movie, and in fact one of the rarest documentary features where the filmmaker is able to finalize the story with no need to follow up on it with a later one. Recensie

Show Dogs is an adorable film about dog pageant with the element of action and comedy, maybe not much though, but an acceptable level to sit through it. Recensie

Susanne Clement as Rae, Allan Hawco as Rae, and Shelley Thompson as Monica form an excellent trio. They fulfill each other on the set to create a magnetic attraction to capture the characters they portray in such an impressive way. Recensie
