Filmrecensies van Filipe Freitas

Observant, insightful, and necessary, reaffirms Ava DuVernay as the powerful voice of the oppressed, as well as a world-class filmmaker. Recensie

This character-driven accomplishment is powerful, portraying life’s contingencies with class, honesty, and an extraordinary sensibility. Recensie

The human portrayed here are deeply cutting and easy to connect with, thanks to the gigantic performances by Washington and Viola Davis. Recensie

Chaining simplicity to irony is part of the secret. Recensie

Its charm and message make us forget the originality it wasn’t capable of showing. Recensie

A minor Dardennes and, probably, their flattest work. Recensie

Unexciting, the film was never too deep and as a consequence, I became indifferent along the way. Recensie

Not every scene works here, yet the unquestionable importance of these women gets the desirable visibility and is not easily forgotten. Recensie

Corrosively biting, surprisingly human, gloriously hardcore, and extremely liberating. Recensie

Cleverly conceived and incredibly acted; a compelling examination of painful lives portrayed with a striking sense of truthfulness. Recensie

An acceptable Hollywood reviving an incredible WWII story and making us understand that courage is much beyond pulling a trigger. Recensie

Even vulnerable in regard to flow and pace, Scorsese was able to create a minimally decent whole with the uneven parts. Recensie

Loach’s raw and ultra-realistic approach remains a fundamental weapon to denounce the sicknesses of our world. Recensie

It’s still a solid and interesting watch. Recensie

This understated, communicative endeavor is a blast of creativity. Recensie

Unequivocally interweaves the simplicity of the filmmaking with the complexity of the story. Recensie

Nicely staged, musically exciting, and technically stainless. Recensie

Verhoeven has to be congratulated for the cinematic version of this compelling character study... Recensie

More meditative than rousing, elusively beautiful in its conception, and constructed further beyond artistic superficiality. Recensie

Fuqua’s modern version of the Sevens, besides lacking humor and a focal point, is too long and stereotyped... Recensie

Refn gets lost in pretentious trivialities and unintelligent strategies that frustrate more than captivate. Recensie

Wahlberg and Russell’s performances are part of the thrills, assuring the steadiness that Berg’s approach failed to hit. Fair entertainment is assured, though. Recensie

Managed to spread some charm while showcasing heartfelt performances. However, it failed to become truly memorable... Recensie

As darkly funny as genuinely disturbing. Recensie
