Filmrecensies van The Massie Twins

Even with a certain realistic sadness coursing throughout the silliness – briefly acknowledging the consequences of sustained idiocy, even in the realm of comic fiction – this isn’t the type of movie that possesses much resonance, save for the few exceptionally funny moments hidden amid the general absurdity. Recensie

The story is expectedly flimsy, relying primarily on little thrills and jokes as the characters encounter waggish specters or wander through creepy sets. Recensie

The film can’t really be described as a cautionary tale, but it isn’t without historical, biographical, and educational value, as Nolan explores a comprehensive backstory. Problematically, it just isn’t that entertaining. Recensie

The comedy is regularly effective, but the overarching storyline leaves much to be desired. Recensie

The Cardinal did go on to win the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture (Drama), and it does proceed to delve into Hitler’s rise leading up to World War II and Austria’s plebiscite, but the film still feels largely uneventful and unmoving. Stephen’s tale just isn’t transformative or unforgettable. Recensie

As a study of historical figures morbidly clashing over sovereignty, the film is certainly educational and a fine reproduction of 16th-century events. Recensie

Though the bulk of the film is one protracted chase after another, perhaps plagued by the gnawing sense that a cliffhanger ending is looming, the adventure is so keenly fashioned that it’s consistently entertaining throughout. Recensie

At least Lawrence embraces the material with a distinct enthusiasm and unapologetic attitude, enabling her to land many of the better euphemisms, the wittier double entendres, and the coarser sex jokes. Recensie

It may be modest fun to reunite some of the characters first seen on the big screen four decades ago for a cinematic farewell, but Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny isn’t nearly strong enough for that to have been a sufficient reason for another feature-length sequel. Recensie

Thanks to writing and direction by Roman Polanski, and a curiously scattered score by Ennio Morricone, a certain dread is persistent; Ford does an exceptional job maintaining the right amount of agitation... Recensie

Fortunately, the actors here tend to take the material seriously, despite its obvious design around improbable stretches for the sake of thrills. Recensie

It’s also impressive that so much of The Flash involves having two versions of Miller appear onscreen simultaneously, allowing them to create a lighthearted repartee. But when it’s reiterated often that time is inconsequential, or that characters are caught in an endless paradox, it’s difficult to dismiss just how rickety the time-travel-as-a-bowl-of-spaghetti concept is... Recensie

Odd occurrences, idiosyncratic interplay, and curious conversations abound, but little of it is genuinely moving or exciting; the substance here is conspicuously lacking, even with its decided unpredictability. Recensie

This may not be one of Pixar’s more surpassing works, but it’s nonetheless pleasant and reasonably entertaining. Recensie

Many of the happenings are mostly anticipated, with minimal surprises, as if something of an incarceration procedural. Still, moments are reserved for cathartic release; when the antagonists are portrayed to such heightened degrees of vileness, their comeuppances are horrifyingly enthralling. Recensie

All of these components coalesce into an unusually silly ordeal, yet it’s difficult not to be amused by the violence, the vampire bloodshed, and the last-minute injections of bouncing cleavage. Recensie

By the end, the continual running and fighting grows monotonous; when the two lead humans can’t die, and the collection of hero Transformers seem impervious to virtually everything, the stakes are too low to muster emotional investment. Recensie

Miles is still a fitting lead with a perspective infrequently examined in big-budget ventures; and the soundtrack is bold and thunderous. But, taking a cue from Avengers: Infinity War, this sequel isn’t even close to being a complete story... Recensie

At least it’s a good-looking production, with its original blend of 3D stylization (bordering on a live-action look) overlaid with 2D shading effects. Recensie

This tale may have familiar hallmarks of other down-to-earth, family-focused, teen-oriented dramas, as well as a certain un-cinematic quality of incredibly ordinary, sensible, intermittently guessable happenings, but it still manages to present engaging personas pursuing emotional endeavors. Recensie

Butler is a dependable action star, in the same vein as Liam Neeson, but this production is about as bland and unmemorable as they get. Recensie

The music and the basic plot are still exceptional, but this modernization can’t come close to capturing the magic of its three-decades-older inspiration. Recensie

Though the majority of the players are unmemorable, it’s admittedly amusing to see so many returning stars and cameos. Recensie

The presentation here is one of regular tedium; no matter the importance of this subject, or the need for certain audiences to absorb it, this production is a tremendous bore. Recensie
