Filmrecensies van Ruth Maramis

I never thought I’d even be interested in watching a D&D adaptation so imagine my astonishment that I end up loving it THIS much. If this one proves to be a smashing success,... Recensie

Tetris has become one of the most fun and satisfying movies of the year so far. I enjoyed it immensely from start to finish, it’s definitely something that I don’t mind watching again. Recensie

This is an uplifting, feel-good movie. I enjoyed the movie and Sally Hawkins’ performance as a rather awkward but deeply sympathetic person. Recensie

Fans of the franchise should have a lot of fun with this latest chapter, bursting with kinetic energy throughout, accompanied by a rollicking score by Tyler Bates and Joel J. Richard. Recensie

Despite the flaws though, I think Fury of the Gods is pretty decent overall and managed to get a few laughs out of me to make it worth seeing on the big screen. So this sequel may not be as good as the satisfying crowd-pleaser of the original, but certainly is not an abomination the way some critics made it out to be. Recensie

For fans of the spy genre, I say it’s still worth a watch, but go in with tempered expectations that the series doesn’t quite live up to its full potential, despite the stellar cast and high production values. Recensie

65 has lots of potential especially when they’ve got a bona fide lead in Adam Driver as the lead, but the lackluster direction and script made this one pretty underwhelming. The plethora of plot holes and head-scratching scenes don’t help either. Recensie

It’s a remarkable debut and a handsomely-mounted production despite the small indie budget. Recensie

It’s barely 1.5 hours long but it just went on forever, I was actually more interested in the ancient tales told during a few scenes at the dig. Such a waste of talent and an exotic location! Recensie

I didn’t realize the poverty and all the struggles before he finally got signed by the Rams, but it’s his love story with his wife Brenda that’s just as inspiring as his football journey. Recensie

I’d knock a half a point for Patrick Wilson‘s smugness that even John Bradley‘s humorous quips can’t save. Recensie

Everything about this is so clichéd and simply ludicrous it’s not even worth watching on a plane. It’s another drivel featuring Dwayne Johnson as another stolid, banal hero. Recensie

Love this beautiful, bittersweet love story during wartime. Recensie

The chemistry between LaKeith Stanfield and Issa Rae is swoon-worthy, but the story is just as intriguing. I love that the parallel love story of Rae’s mother told in flashback is equally beguiling, so you get TWO beautiful love stories in one movie. Recensie

Written and directed by Marie Kreutzer, this is a fictional account of one year in Sisi’s life, brilliantly portrayed by Vicky Krieps. Recensie

The true star is Mckenna Grace as the spirited young genius Mary, and veteran British thespian Lindsay Duncan classes up the whole thing as the antagonist of the story. Recensie

This is such a delightful and enjoyable movie through and through. Maurice is instantly likable so it was effortless to be fully invested in his journey. Recensie

The eerie surrealism is quite fun to watch but there are a few things that preclude this from being a remarkable film. The overall pacing is uneven with a sluggish second act. The plots are sadly ridden with clichés that, like Darren Aronofsky’s award-winning film, perpetuate the notion that ballet is creepy and filled with terror. That said, the film showcases Smith’s directing chops... Recensie

Quantumania is lackluster and quite exhausting to sit through that makes me think Marvel’s glory days might be behind us. Recensie

For a title as enchanting as She Is Love, I expected to be swept off my feet by a love story. Alas, it was not to be, everything feels too random and aimless despite the actors’ best efforts. Recensie

The ensemble cast are wonderful, nice to see James Purefoy in something cute and fluffy for a change. Recensie

I think the idea of combining Nan Goldin’s biopic of sort with the downfall of the Sackler family is an interesting approach but I’m not sure it worked well. Recensie

It’s definitely a slow-burn period mystery but I find it quite engrossing and surprisingly funny thanks to Harry Melling’s performance as young Poe. The cinematography by DP Masanobu Takayanagi is pretty stunning too! Recensie

It was enjoyable and the visuals are gorgeous, but I don’t think it’s as spectacular as I expected. Still it was fun to see the reunion of Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek as the voice of Puss and Kitty. Recensie
