Filmrecensies van Victor Fraga

Documentary investigates the nuts and bolts of Blockchain and Bitcoin, and whether the new technologies could change the way we live... Recensie

Asandhimitta isn’t witty and elaborate. It’s simply helter-skelter. There a few entertaining moments, but overall it’s incomprehensible and draining to watch. Recensie

A lyrical, profound and solid piece of filmmaking. The action and the developments are very subtle and slow, while the performances are candid and effective. Recensie

An auspicious caper. The action is fast-faced enough to keep you hooked during the 96 minutes of duration. Recensie

The cinematography does a decent job in translating the colours and the textures of Frida’s world to the silver screen, but that’s about the only aspect of Two Fridas that I can commend. Recensie

Moving in its candor and remarkable in its perceptiveness. Recensie

Hungarian drama about man in his 30s overcoming being dumped by girlfriend excels in sensibility and ingeniousness; it's a heartfelt ode to masculinity in all of its splendid brittleness. Recensie

Riveting enough at its duration of 88 minutes. But the story has a few gaps, and the narrative doesn’t come full circle, the proposed closure isn’t too convincing. Recensie

Sensory film filmed in 35 countries during six years; the outcome is rather impressive if not without imperfections. Recensie

The photography is splendid. While effective enough as a disaster drama, Spitak also has a few problems. Recensie

Raises pertinent questions about the role of the documentarist and the purpose of the footage collected... Recensie

Overall, a great premise and yet a missed opportunity. Perhaps the whole thing would have functioned better as a short film instead. Recensie

Romain Gavras's second feature is a gangster comedy mocking European cliches, while also teeming with the colours of the Mediterranean; sadly the story is just too silly and disjointed. Recensie

A powerful documentary... Recensie

Wildlife is effective enough as a family drama, but it lacks the punch-in-the-face factor. Recensie

A little Indiana Jones, a little Guillermo del Toro. American military horror set on D-Day makes use of every conceivable genre cliche, yet it's scary and fun enough to watch. Recensie

All in all, an enjoyable ride through the life of a woman who dodged labels and preconceptions both within and outside the rock world in favour of her individuality. Recensie

This is a movie about living with psychosis and overcoming it. Recensie

A dazzling Glenn Close shines in movie about ghost writing wife and the nature of creative writing; sadly the film is lacklustre in almost every other aspect... Recensie

Japanese animation master crafts a fascinatingly puerile and colourful tale about only child coming to terms with his newly-arrived sister... Recensie

It’s fun, it’s gentle and it’s also rejuvenating to watch. Recensie

Exquisite tribute to very old age starring a nonagenarian Harry Dean Stanton raises questions about loneliness and "realism". Recensie

For a far more effective, humane and meaningful heist movie, watch American Animals. Recensie

The real-story of four highly ambitious and inept criminals who attempted to rob a library in Kentucky is surprisingly humanistic and moving. Recensie
