Filmrecensies van Bob Mann

This is a delightful insight into the Japanese culture of excellence instilled into children at an early age. In turns heartbreaking; in turns inspirational, the film highlights the caring but no-nonsense attitude that the Japanese have. Recensie

This is a well made film, showing such a kaleidoscope of different images on the screen at the same time that it is sometimes difficult to know what you should be looking at. It adds an immediacy to the action that gets your adrenaline running, as the aftermath leads to street protests from a rapidly gathering crowd. Recensie

This one has a fairly simple 2D animation style, but contains a story that is charming and delightful and had me smiling throughout its 13 minute running time. Recensie

This is a wonderfully inventive and anarchic film, chock full of black humour that’s as thick as flies! Recensie

This is a delightful Japanese-set animation that scores highly for me in having a really engaging story that is quite moving in places. Recensie

This is one of the more artistic offerings in this year’s set, reminding me of the style of Ice Merchants. Recensie

The animation is also clever in that there are multiple fog effects used, which must have been tricky to do. Recensie

Everything is deliciously natural and unforced. Recensie

A darkly impressive film that will not be to everyone’s tastes. Recensie

It really didn’t feel like a 3 hour film, given how engrossing it was. Recensie

Thank God for Harrison Ford. For the film would really have been a 1* squib for me without his robust presence in the film. Recensie

All in all, I had a fun time with this one in the cinema. It’s not high art. But it is a fun popcorn watch. Recensie

This was a solid and moving documentary that I found gripping from beginning to end. Recensie

Nope. This one just plain didn’t work for me. Recensie

A worthy sequel that I found really entertaining and I know has delighted audiences. Recensie

A brilliant thriller that I’m rating five-stars. I was struggling to find faults with it to knock it down a half star, but I really can’t. A must watch. Recensie

Fernanda Torres is deservedly nominated for the Best Leading Actress Oscar. There is so much grit and determination in her performance that it really deserves recognition. Recensie

A real tragi-comedy this will have you both laughing and weeping in equal measure. Recensie

A sci-fi classic that I can watch over and over again without it getting boring. Pure class. Recensie

It’s still a gentle and unchallenging watch, but it feels so much more forced and artificial than last time. A disappointment. Recensie

Even though I’m not a mad-fan of stop-motion animation, this was high class entertainment from Aardman. Recensie

A really fun time at the movies, Companion ticks all the boxes for comedy and thriller (with a tad of horror) mixed together. Recensie

What shines through in Dawn Porter’s well structured documentary is just what a talent Vandross had. Recensie

A solid and entertaining film for kids that adults can also enjoy to a certain degree. Recensie
