Filmrecensies van Jacob Richardson

A mile-a-minute thrill ride, full of lackadaisical jokes, explosive action and a series of twists and turns. Recensie

A manic pixie dream of a movie with a cool premise, ultimately unravelled by a messy ending. Recensie

Full Time is an emotionally investing and beautifully acted tale that feels relatable, important and engaging. However, its endless anxiety-inducing stress levels could have benefitted from a more cohesive protagonist goal. Recensie

A gorgeous looking adaptation of the best-selling novel that fans of the books will likely love; even with its shortcomings. Recensie

A sumptuously beautiful, in-depth and intriguing look at a little known, but critically important piece of history. Recensie

A charming slice of history, presented with humor, warmth and pathos. Recensie

Christian Bale brings an energy and enthusiasm to the project that helps to cover up the comfortability, lack of energy and sheer ineptitude of the rest of this been there, done that project. Recensie

Elvis is a thrill ride, but one anchored by a career-making performance from Austin Butler that sustains you through the twists, turns and gaudy showmanship of Baz Luhrman’s Hounddog scored fever dream. Recensie

Benediction is both admirably slow, deliberate, inquisitive and introspective, and also frustratingly so. Recensie

A charming, thrilling story, but Chris Evans is no Tim Allen. Recensie

Jurassic World: Dominion is the sort of IP draining franchise instalment that sustains itself with fan service, while not only not delivering any sense of the new or creative, but actively subverting the few original ideas in the previous movie to return to familiar paths. Recensie

Beautifully shot, staged and acted, but ultimately unfulfilling period drama. Recensie

Last Seen Alive is poorly produced, with a terrible plot, some horrible characters, and a production quality that beggars belief. It’s also a film single-handedly saved by Gerard Butler, who somehow, amidst this absolute mess, delivers a bit of a fresh take on a character we’ve seen before. Recensie

This animated offshoot feels like an extended TV episode, rather than a cinematic experience. Recensie

An unbelievably good sequel to the classic 80’s film. Recensie

The blend in this mincemeat could have been better, but in the end it’s perfectly edible. Recensie

An underwhelming and largely unambitious take on the multiverse, that throws opts for jump scares and cameos rather than character development and fresh takes. Recensie

Nic Cage is back, with a meta action/comedy that holds your interest, examines his fame, while also adroitly plumbing the depths of his back catalogue. Recensie

The Northman is a breathtakingly beautiful, gorgeously rendered vision that is as bloody and violent as it is strange and unmissable. Recensie

The famed children's book series comes to life in a razor sharp animated piece that will hold parents' attention, as well as that of their kids. Recensie

Mind-boggling multiversal musings ultimately take a backseat to an emotional family tale in this must see movie. Recensie

Big, loud and dumb - but a helluva lot of fun. Recensie

Muddled, with flashes of brilliance, but an overall sense of ‘why?’, Morbius is a film that isn’t so much bad or good, as confusing. Recensie

The Lost City isn’t discovering any new wonders here, but its familiar formula is well-balanced, and frequently hilarious. This is a fun action flick, that we hope heralds the return of the adventure movie. Recensie
