Filmrecensies van The Massie Twins

As the film progresses, the frights become more carefully crafted and the story smarter; brief bits of gore and dead bodies still pop up, but Below is more interested in building a creepy atmosphere and a sensational sense of dread. Recensie

Proves to be a powerful, sobering, haunting epic of human frailty and cruelty – a staggering, unequaled masterpiece of such intrinsic traits. Recensie

The creativity is admirable, even if the end result is more of a joke than it should have been. Recensie

A competent, consistent horror anthology. Recensie

By the end of it all, despite a few major revelations, this middle, middle chapter reveals itself to be little more than a collection of hunts. Recensie

The cuteness and the spattering of witty parodies aren’t enough to overcome the slowness, the repetition, and the lack of emotional content. Recensie

Politics in the ‘80s doesn’t feel considerably different than today; at the very least, it’s still extremely relevant, even if the public’s reactions have changed. Recensie

It’s too limited in scope to be unforgettable, though its production design and set decorations are more than adequate. Recensie

Chan’s flair for creative tussles knows no bounds. And the falls are tremendous. Recensie

Thanks to some unoriginal college initiation diversions, supporting roles line up to become fodder for the insatiable unnamable, though intentional humor occasionally spoils the mood. Recensie

Still a lot of fun, especially when the division of good and evil are so clearly defined, allowing for unambiguous, frenzied battles of righteousness. Recensie

It’s more of a moderate, procedural, cautionary tale (concerning man’s negative impact on nature), or even a war movie, than a futuristic adventure. Recensie

A nonstop adventure of sizable proportions. Recensie

It’s impossible to fully understand such an abstruse, experimental work, but the happenings on display are never dull. Recensie

Whether or not it’s an exercise in pointed symbolism or abstract surrealism or a manifestation of suicidal thoughts, it’s utterly mesmerizing. Recensie

It’s so freakish and routinely inscrutable that its imagery is alternately scary, obscene, dramatic, and hilarious. It simply doesn’t exist in any sort of analyzable reality. Recensie

It’s moderately amusing, but it has a difficult time justifying its own existence; it’s simply unnecessary to revisit the Seuss masterpiece yet again, especially when there’s no fresh angle from which to approach it. Recensie

Were it not for the odd moment of slapstick, the notions of playing god and of psychological torture and of uncontrollable rage would be genuinely terrifying. Recensie

It’s the kind of cautionary tale (with an astounding, if improbably hopeful, finale) that never loses its relevance. Recensie

A wonder of music and surreal visuals, frequently smushed together in entertainingly perverse ways. Recensie

The acting is mediocre, the dialogue is unconvincing, the characters are flimsy, and the story is shoddily constructed, but the tone is mostly serious, which helps counter the abundance of deficiencies in filmmaking techniques (and all of the unintentional hilarity). Recensie

It’s thrilling at times and action-packed at others, but it abandons the utter brilliance of select moments of outsmarting rather than outgunning the enemies. Recensie

Although Ivanhoe isn’t nearly as well-known as the many legends of Robin Hood, this medieval epic exists alongside Locksley’s own exploits, making for an amusing supplement to the more famous yarns. Recensie

Tightly scripted, with frequent near-misses and white-knuckle encounters, I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang is dark, dour, and devoid of comic relief. Recensie
