Filmrecensies van Don Shanahan

If the human precision isn’t impressive enough in Warfare, the production value work and rigorous filmmaking effort will galvanize and hammer that point home. Recensie

Thanks to the exuberant cast and the kind of contagious entertainment they dispensed, you may just come to love something you didn’t know a lick about 101 minutes earlier. Recensie

We’re watching a wringer that doesn’t wring us out in return because we come to understand and care so deeply for this broken woman at odds. Recensie

Compared to other medical-centered dramas that amp up their own kinds of manufactured peril, Audrey’s Children will not—nor should it really—be the most scintillating film of life-saving excitement. Recensie

We fail to see or feel the heavier point The Assessment wanted to confront us with. We’re too busy tidying up another bleak and futile mess. Recensie

As frightful and grisly as Majors and Magazine Dreams get, there is an unmistakable lure to their intensity and damaged textures. Majors’ narration, reactions, and jaded silent acts infuse a more layered human lost underneath the monstrous muscles and vices. He is undeniably impressive in those feats. Recensie

Because of all of this glowing style and sensational suspense, Black Bag is never dull, meaning Steven Soderbergh and his avant-garde arthouse tendencies are never pedestrian either. Recensie

When it’s all said and done, Queen of the Ring nailed the big fight feel in its 1954 climax that bookends the film, and they put on a barnburner. Recensie

It is a shame the rest of Picture This around Simone Ashley could not equal her level of vividness. Recensie

The majority of Riff Raff is a disjointed and boring intersection of Vincent’s present and past families. Too wide of a pendulum is swung between reflective complications and the trigger-happy dark comedy the movies probably should have been the whole time. Recensie

Thanks to Gretchen Mol, Minnie Driver, and Julianna Marguiles, Millers in Marriage stages a performative pageant of strength and sentiment. Recensie

Thankfully, Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller look just as good sharing lusty gazes as they do with a deadly rifle on their shoulder while being put through their paces by stunt coordinator Brycen Counts and fight coordinator Shahaub Roudbari. Recensie

It goes to show that, even with a tremendously polished and solid effort that quite honestly sells itself on brand name alone, Marvel still can’t help themselves. Recensie

Those who lean to and shine with the positive latter will be rewarded with a lovely odyssey of warmth fighting back bleakness. Recensie

The linchpin of the new release dramedy Suze isn’t the nicknamed middle-aged female title character played by comedienne and Saturday Night Live alum Michaela Watkins. The overall course is made unexpectedly and tremendously more interesting by the inclusion of a celebrated archetype that’s harder to pull off than audiences realize: the himbo. Recensie

With its idyllic morals and rural accoutrements, Green and Gold champions hopeful and wholesome vibes. Recensie

Surging with peppy vibrancy, Dog Man is a delightful and easy-going blast fit for entire fleets of minivans and family sedans arriving at multiplexes this winter. Recensie

While Wish You Were Here may not fully succeed for many, she deserves more chances in the big chair. Recensie

Those astute and excellent creative choices put strength on the restorative over the reactive, because, in the end, things can get better, and that journey has led to over 10 festival jury prizes Anna’s important film. Recensie

Whether it was written on the page or pulled by the actress fleshing out a character for comic relief trying to become wiser by the end of the movie, the physical neuroses, teacher-’splaining rants, and preposterous decision-making bring down the film’s zest detrimentally. Recensie

Somewhere in Montana reveals its true dramatic colors which are mature, pertinent, and valuable in their intrinsic quality. Recensie

Better than many works by peers and contemporaries, Nickel Boys longs for us to hold dear the bonds of protective brotherhood with a fascinating filmic experience. Recensie

Because of its empathetic and transformative journey, The Fire Inside is engrossing entertainment perfect for this time of the year and stands out as a must-see sports film in an era with a dearth of quality in the genre. Shields and Crutchfield repped for their folks. Recensie

Thanks to the sensational flair of Chalamet and Barbaro crooning and swooning, A Complete Unknown won’t let old purists and new fans make that previous mistake. They’re going to remember this film as the place they caught their own spark. Recensie
