Filmrecensies van Ulkar Alakbarova

Jarmusch’s Paterson is more like an impactful poetry written by the one who created the life. The color, production design, even the cinematography is intact helping Paterson to express itself as a motion picture. Recensie

Don’t get me wrong, it’s of course heartbreaking to know when a family member keeps secret something that could have changed the course of a family’s history. But that story, unfortunately, does not hit the heart or anyone’s soul due to many directions the filmmaker tried to take, but failed to reach any of them. Recensie

Half a Man brings another fact from real life, when happiness can quickly turn into disappointment, when it’s not life, but the size and shape and well being of a person is what for some matters most. Recensie

After Love is a wonderful drama movie to watch. Everything goes so smoothly in the movie that you don’t even feel the time that passes by quickly. Recensie

This short film within eight minutes delivers a delightful result more than any full-length film could ever accomplish. Recensie

Le Ciel Flamand is a devastatingly powerful drama that not everyone can watch to its conclusion. Recensie

Graduation is cleverly written and directed by Cristian Mungiu who captures brilliantly a complex issue with delicate approach. Recensie

Everything is outstanding about Bercot’s film. The character development, the pace, the dramatic soundtrack that shapes the required atmosphere to experience the real battle of Frachon with Servier’s representatives. Recensie

Actors do an amazing job in portraying the characters while the scene when Lady Hideko reads erotic book with describing every detail is surely something worth seeing many times. The camera work is pure and unquestionable as it does what it should to bring to life what had been envisioned by the master of sublime cinema. Recensie

Toni Erdman captures both, Ines and Winfried’s relationship in a way that you will realize, if this is not worth living, what else can then be? Recensie

Manchester by the Sea is an emotionally overwhelming film that’s impossible to watch without a heavy heart. Casey Affleck’s breakthrough performance as Lee Chandler is, in a way, shocking and joyful experience. Recensie

The loss of space and time is what fascinates most in this film – which we must thank both actresses for in their seamless portrayal of Julieta in two different stages of life. Recensie

Isabelle Huppert brings the best of Michèle Leblanc you could possibly imagine. Recensie

The Unknown Girl is a powerful drama that, once again brings us the life of ordinary people, life-changing mistakes they made, naturalistic scenes and the dreadful consequences of what we don’t do when we had to. Recensie

Marija is a decent drama from Michal Koch, who offers a delicate subject matter of a single woman in Dortmund, and how she tries to cope with the troubles her daily life brings. Recensie

Even the production, costumes, and cinematography is quite outstanding and literally transports you to 1944 when Florence Jenkins hit the Carnegie Hall. The script written by Nicholas Martin is unquestionably perfect. Recensie

In Order of Disappearance is well narrated crime drama showing that, with needed desire, a single man can trigger war between drug and gun sellers in a way that there will be no need for police to interfere with. Recensie

Standing Tall is an intense drama about a man who had to survive a difficult childhood. Recensie

You can’t simply assume that the audience that goes to the movie theater expects to watch a ridiculously silly film and they deserve nothing else. That should never be the case when you try to come up with an original story. Recensie

None of those words would be enough to describe the enchanting atmosphere this film delivers. The performance delivered by Haruka Ayase, Masami Nagasawa, Kaho and Suzu Hirose is so fabulous, that you will lose the feeling of reality. Recensie

It’s just bad storyline with some powerful performances delivered by Anna Gunn. Recensie

The Infiltrator brings you an opportunity to conduct a detailed character study, where you never have to question why this or that had ever happened. Recensie

Yes, it may not be the greatest movie you have ever seen, or, it can even be one of the worst you’ve seen in a while, but it is still watchable and worthwhile seeing. Recensie

The beautiful scenery, camera work and yet, dark photography delivers an outstanding look of hidden animal nature that’s always been in human beings. It was just a matter of releasing it. Recensie
