Filmrecensies van Ruth Maramis

Mrs Harris Goes to Paris may seem frivolous the way people think about fashion. But this feel-good movie has some deeper values about a woman being true to herself and that her kindness has the power to change others’ lives. Recensie

It’s disappointing to see such a daft, unimaginative movie from the Russos who managed to redefine what it means to be a hero in the spectacular espionage thriller The Winter Soldier. Recensie

Calamy won the Best Actress César Award for her performance here and I hope that’ll lead to more film roles for her in the future. Recensie

The only high marks I can give the movie is the beautiful cinematography and the gorgeous shooting location in Bath which is where the story is set in. Recensie

I commend the creators for delivering such a thought-provoking story with a wonderful spectacle that kids and adults can enjoy and mull over. Recensie

I’m so glad I finally got to see this inspiring historical drama that highlights the untold story of three phenomenal women who made an impact in WWII. Recensie

It’s a better, more entertaining movie than the last MCU outing Doctor Strange and the Multitude of Madness, but not by much. That is disappointing as I had hoped it would be vastly superior. Recensie

Despite my quibbles, I am glad that I saw this on the big screen. Mr. Malcolm’s List has plenty to offer to period drama fans and seeing it with my best friend who loves this genre as much as I did is especially delightful. Recensie

It has its moments but it’s not a terribly engaging movie. It was still worth a watch, featuring a young Timothée Chalamet a year before his career-changing role in Call Me By Your Name. Recensie

I quite enjoyed it despite not knowing much about poker. The script is sharp and engaging, Chastain is magnetic and it’s always great seeing Idris Elba on screen as her attorney. Recensie

The second movie is just as intense though I’m not sure it’s as effective as the first. Recensie

I don’t think this one is worth the hype compared to CODA in terms of its writing however, while it’s pretty enjoyable, it doesn’t leave a lasting impression on me. That said, it’s well worth a watch and I’m curious what Raiff will do next. Recensie

Elvis may not get the chance to make A Star Is Born, but a star IS born with Austin Butler playing Elvis. Recensie

It’s even rarer that the script, direction, and performances all mesh so well together in a light, breezy 1 hour 37 minutes! Recensie

Lightyear feels more Disney than Pixar, and it reeks ‘lucrative IP milking’ rather than making something from the heart. I wouldn’t go so far as calling Lightyear a misfire, but definitely doesn’t soar to infinity, let alone beyond. Recensie

Nick and Brooke end up learning from each other over the course of the night, and the tentative romance between them feels earnest. The gorgeous Manhattan backdrop certainly adds to the charm. Recensie

The Valet is a quintessential crowd-pleaser and feel-good movie that’s genuinely heartfelt and funny. Recensie

In short, gone is the sense of wonder that began 29 years ago, what’s left is doldrums and dread of seeing a once-fascinating IP become so, so insipid. Recensie

Top Gun: Maverick delivers the spectacle and thrills it promises… deftly mixing unapologetic nostalgia and stimulating action that should satisfy fans of the original and win new ones. Recensie

I equate watching Downton Abbey to having a relaxing afternoon tea with friends… it’s a comforting endeavor while you let yourself be buoyed by mild, genteel entertainment Fellowes has mastered to perfection. Recensie

I really enjoy this one despite some sluggish moments. I guess I don’t mind slow-burn type films with heavy dialog, so long as it’s well-crafted and the performances are engaging. Pine and Newton are such charismatic actors on top of being very easy on the eye. Recensie

There are intriguing ideas here that work quite well, so it’s definitely well worth your time. Recensie

Tall Girl 2 is a pretty entertaining movie with a positive message about self-acceptance and valuing true friendships and sisterhood. Recensie

This Doctor Strange sequel just feels a bit too much for me… so many things hurled at you all at once in maddening speed. So despite some memorable scenes and good performances, this movie isn’t one I’m keen on watching again anytime soon. Recensie
