Filmrecensies van The Massie Twins

Cast Away musters some astonishing sequences of beauty and wonderment; the emotional impact of Noland’s acute solitude is remarkable, especially as he struggles to hang on to the tenuous threads of his own sanity. Recensie

It’s thoroughly underwhelming in all regards, even if it’s intermittently so bad that it’s funny, which allows for a handful of seconds of genuine entertainment value. Recensie

A couple shots of gore and a decent flaming corpse sequence aren’t enough to even remotely counter the constant silliness, the gross insincerity, the crawling pacing, the weak fights, and the unvarying uneventfulness. Recensie

Despite the visuals, which are the obvious appeal for this horror-comedy hybrid, the story just isn’t orchestrated in a sensible enough manner; the plot progression is too slow and disjointed to do justice to the over-the-top, slimy yucks. Recensie

The combination of cheeky characters, quirky camerawork, upbeat music, snazzy editing, and loads of humor helps to make this project consistently entertaining. Recensie

The setup may be of higher intellect, but the execution is primarily engaged with marketability; without pulse-pounding thrills, the filmmakers are afraid there won’t be audiences. Recensie

There are no gut-busting scenes in Heaven Can Wait; the jokes are as tepid as the romance, resulting in a tremendously mediocre picture. Recensie

Fans will surely find entertainment in the imagery and the introduction of new characters, even if the use of subtle adult jokes are unfitting and Fox’s excessively sexualized, done-up appearance never feels entirely appropriate. Recensie

In the end, there are a few welcome changes to the ordinary Godzilla routines, once again concerning personas with greater development, emotional complications, and moral quandaries, but it still dwells on stock tropes and extremely predictable revelations. Recensie

Though the runtime is slightly overlong and the narrative is overly cinematic, the intensity and the emotional moments are entirely winning. Recensie

The picture lampoons mythological feats and entities, it’s so ridiculous and random and narratively incoherent that’s it’s routinely watchable. Recensie

It’s all fine in the moment, but there was no real reason to try again – at least not with this screenplay. Recensie

This swift, simple musical, particularly with its bland script, wasn’t enough of a vehicle to really propel Monroe toward stardom, but it’s still a curious historical chapter in the icon’s career, especially considering that her following jobs... Recensie

It may be a return to big-screen dino mayhem, but it’s so unoriginal and unexciting that it’s genuinely mind-boggling that this is the best the creative team could do with a reboot scenario and a blockbuster budget. Recensie

It’s difficult to dismiss the absolute giddiness and glee of the cast and crew as they craft this hysterical film with far too much self-awareness to accidentally make something entertaining, which was part of the charm of the original. Recensie

The deeply emotional elements – which work not because of zombie activities but in spite of them – are perhaps the most rewarding surprises in this largely satisfying follow-up to an enduring horror franchise. Recensie

By the end, it’s still entertaining, even if it’s basically the same thing as before... Recensie

It’s a repetitive copycat for the majority of the runtime – until the finale, which boasts just enough over-the-top stunts and exhilarating duels that it nearly redeems itself from the borderline boring start. Recensie

Like his brief foray into the larger areas of Romania, this production is nothing more than a peek into his early life, devoid of any information that would make his hard-won survival and perseverance cinematically inspiring or poignant. Recensie

While Takahashi’s story is compelling and infuriating – the injustice is colossal, particularly with the distrust and corruption of law enforcement agencies – the manner in which it’s told is choppy and disjointed. Recensie

It’s in the orchestration of action sequences that this film excels. But by the conclusion, the running time proves to be too much, drawing out what should have been a much more thrilling, personal adventure... Recensie

The pacing is too slow and the humor spread too thin to sustain this trite script, even if its box office takings relate the opposite, boosting the careers of virtually the entire cast. Recensie

Sadly, the innovative qualities from the start aren’t enough to carry this film through to a truly satisfying conclusion. Recensie

And though it’s quick and simple – an excellent tale for a short subject – it’s not particularly rewarding; the revelations at the end aren’t enough to counteract the disgusting nosiness of the teacher. Recensie
