Filmrecensies van Filipe Freitas

The dazzling physical battles, captured under the supervision of cinematographer Mandy Walker, are insufficient to overcome the petty humor and faint romance. Recensie

This is unmistakably Nolan in his love for highly layered tales and puzzling structures, but this time he overstuffed the plot to the point of not making much sense out of it. Moreover, Ludwig Göransson’s ominous score often feels intrusive while Washington's performance is not as sharp as in BlackKklansman. Recensie

The competent photography by Don Burgess, who has been working intermittently with Zemeckis since Forrest Gump, is not enough to make us waste almost two hours of our time with this terrible mess. Recensie

Brutal violence occurs but not in an exaggerated extent, and you can indulge in a trillion betrayals and scams, aspects explored in a way that are truly emblematic of the genre. Well-shot with apt camera angles and filled with energy, the film has no dull moments despite of its many dull characters. Recensie

Gladly, this emotionally-driven immigrant song doesn’t feed from tears. Msangi turns her affectionate eyes to the center of the adversities while gently pushing the family into harmonious comfort, restoring hope. A fair dose of honesty and terrific performances by the three leads contributed to a sympathetic debut feature. Recensie

Being Lurie’s best film to date, The Outpost is an unsparing look at the frustrations of fighting against hundreds of invisible enemies armed to their teeth. Recensie

The camera work under Lee’s supervision is excellent, and you’ll feel enlivened by the vibrant energy of these quirky pop/rock songs arranged with tribal rhythms, funky chords, and powerful lyrics. Recensie

Protracted and unpolished, this post-war treasure-hunt film is somewhat repetitive in some of the ideas, and it could have been even worse if it wasn’t for Lindo's strong performance. Recensie

Besides offering life lessons and providing tremendous fun with unceremonious sophistication, Pinocchio also benefits from an incredible mise en scène, a well-versed costume design and an inviting photography. Recensie

Aiming for higher narrative stakes, the film rushes a few scenes and fades away nearly as fast for an undistinguished conclusion. Recensie

More eye-catching than cerebral, this feel-good fantasy, conceived and co-written by Brian Duffiels, provides an amusing session. Recensie

The splendorous decors and an adequate performance by Kristin Scott Thomas as the villainous housekeeper - in opposition to the unconvincing acting of Lily James and Armie Hammer as the newly married de Winters - are the best this romantic psychological thriller has to offer. Recensie

From my perspective, the film tried in vain to push the limits of its poker-faced way and failed in its most riotous moments. It doesn’t really get better as it advances but rather maintains the off-kilter procedures. Recensie

Isolation, estrangement, dishonesty and deception, all shape a family-decaying story mounted with stark realism. It’s a shame that Durkin opted for the easiest conclusion, but the film remains valid. Both the pop/rock soundtrack and the film score are great. Recensie

Delivered with a bourgeois, Woody Allen-esque vibe, the film is somewhat formulaic and undistinguished, with Murray’s amusing scenes being a poor trade-off for the inert course of events. Recensie

The non-elaborate scenarios and relaxed posture generate a likable indie flavor but the film would have drawn more attention if the director Oz Rodriguez, who co-wrote it with Blaise Hemingway, had put a fresh perspective on the pop, urban vampirism. Recensie

Although delivered with fortitude, steadfastness and passion, the film fails to maintain the promptitude in showing a troubled, flawed legal system. Recensie

Quite a few startles may catch you off-guard, but I found the isolation and emotional detachment to be more disturbing than the horror scenes. Hence, social commentary goes hand-in-glove with spectral abomination here. Recensie

’s true that the storytelling is never muddled, but it’s too cold, bleak and tedious in its cinematic vistas. Recensie

The film is often messy in its ludicrousness, but a trip worth taking, considering the delicate situations that Cohen and Bakalova put themselves in. Recensie

Gorgeously shot in black-and-white 35mm film, The Forty-Year-Old Version converts a slice of real life into a powerful artistic statement... Recensie

The frivolous blend of ludicrous mystery and tepid romance offered in Digging For Fire got me quickly bored. Recensie

The fine performances give the story a boost, especially Sacha Baron Cohen as Abbie Hoffman and Jeremy Strong as Jerry Rubin. Recensie

Following is a fascinating and immersive neo-noir enhanced with terrific acting. Recensie
