Filmrecensies van Ruth Maramis

Origin is a towering achievement, adapting a non-fiction book as a narrative film is tricky, but she manages to weave an impressively engaging, deeply moving, and thought-provoking piece. Recensie

Fans of French cinema and/or foodie movies should definitely seek this one out... Recensie

The sense of mystery and melancholy is magnified by Emilie Levienaise-Farrouch’s evocative score and Jamie Ramsay’s ethereal cinematography that looks stunning on the big screen. Recensie

It’s a simple, meditative piece featuring a captivating lead performance by Koji Yakusho. Recensie

Despite the thrilling race sequences, Ferrari lacks a certain oomph (or vroom in this case) to mark a memorable comeback. Recensie

American Fiction is a biting satire that’s thoroughly engaging and as multidimensional as its characters. Recensie

Directed by George Seaton and co-written by Seaton and Valentine Davies, this movie truly captures the spirit of Christmas … about goodwill, generosity, kindness, and serving others. Recensie

The film takes a while to get going but gets more engaging once it gets into gear. Overall I think Troughton did a good job crafting an atmospheric and intriguing thriller with an effective less-is-more approach. Recensie

Love his quirky but warmhearted sense of humor and imaginative creativity. His Wonka version has just the right amount of kookiness, magical whimsy, and heart that’s perfect for the holiday season. Recensie

This film is a towering achievement that’s done with utmost love and admiration for the late music virtuoso. I was fully immersed in the film, even the slower moments didn’t feel tedious. Recensie

Kingsley, Harris, and Curtin make for an unlikely but fun trio, while Quon did an outstanding job as Jules in a silent performance with just her expression and body language. Recensie

While there are things I admire about Fennell’s direction and the performances, ultimately it’s a shallow and vile endeavor. Recensie

Overall this is an admirable work by Borgli, a highly original, genre-bending piece that actually has something interesting to say. Recensie

While the creators had a neat idea about how we’re shaped by the dreams we hold dearest in our hearts, overall the movie doesn’t really tug at my heartstrings. Recensie

Next Goal Wins has all the ingredients to be a profound and uplifting underdog sports story, but unfortunately, it never quite rises to that level. Recensie

Quiz Lady is wonderfully fun, kooky, and entertaining from start to finish. Recensie

Funny, relatable, and poignant, I thoroughly enjoyed this one from start to finish. Recensie

Even the pair of talented actors and the power of nostalgia still can’t overcome a lackluster script. Recensie

I’m glad I got a chance to finally see this one. It’s not as deep or emotionally resonant as I would’ve liked, but still warrants a recommendation. Recensie

The message that one person’s trash can be a gift for another is beautifully realized in this inspiring feel-good drama. Recensie

I find The Creator quite satisfying though it remains to be seen if it’ll be regarded as a sci-fi classic years down the line. Recensie

I do appreciate that Shulman’s script and Sie’s direction avoid the saccharine pitfalls despite dealing with a tear-jerker theme. The story is heart-rending and sweet without being nauseatingly syrupy. Recensie

A Million Miles Away honors José’s life wonderfully, it’s the kind of crowd-pleaser we all could use more of these days. Recensie

One can’t refute Branagh’s deep love for the character and it’s even more evident in this film. Three times the charm, as this is definitely the strongest of Branagh’s Christie trilogy. Recensie
