Filmrecensies van Hungry Watching

You have to praise Mindy in her ability to weave a narrative that isn’t just a fresh take on clichéd stories, although it still falls into the cliché trap on occasion, but writes women as three-dimensional characters.

Booksmart is a sweet coming-of-age story that has a lot to offer its audience, mostly in the form of the cast. The actual story is reminiscent of your typical teen movie, but the chemistry of the people involved makes it feel like something different; special in its own way.

Rocketman is a beautifully crafted film that is everything you can ask for in an entertaining biopic – heart, humor, emotion and a soundtrack that will bring down any house.

The transition from animation to live-action was pretty well executed by Guy Richie, creating a wonderfully colorful and vibrant world. Mena Massoud is a charmingly likeable Aladdin and his chemistry with Smith’s Genie is smooth and playful. Although, choppy editing and transitioning makes the film feel uneven.

It’s a near-perfect woven tapestry of intricate storytelling that is unprecedented and will be hard to replicate. And to that I say thank you.

The natural ease to which Rae portrays her character feels honest and true, whether dealing with an insubordinate teenage Jordan, drooling over Jordan’s teacher, played by Justin Hartley, or finding the confidence to voice her talents.

With the backdrop of a fun-loving circus and a flying elephant, you would expect the movie to be more exciting and full of wonderment. However, it was a bit dry and superficial.

Grazer is goofy and full of exuberance, regardless of the hardships life has given his character. And Mark Strong is a formidable foe with his ability to exude evil with just a look.

All in all, the movie probably isn’t going to be winning any awards, but if you like Mötley Crüe, it may be worth a peek.

Although the story may feel a bit muddled, the characters, action and overall enjoyment surrounding the film could not be clearer.

In all honestly, they’re all topics that have been done before. But, the combination of Wilson, Devine and Hemsworth just makes it work so much better. They don’t take themselves too seriously and look like they’re having fun, while also maintaining the sanctity of what it means to be a romantic comedy.

The show is fun and dramatic in the best of ways.

It’s heartwarming, lovable, and a perfect conclusion to the story.

Unless Schooled does something to allow its own voice to speak out, it is going to become a stale knock-off that people aren’t going to tune in to.

Although the cast is top notch and have great chemistry with each other, the show is full of simplistic jokes made from low hanging fruit.

Saniyya Sidney brings the smart, vulnerable character to life in a way that makes you not want to take your eyes off of her. Her chemistry with Mark-Paul Gosselaar is the driving force behind the show and eighty percent of the reason it’s worth watching.

The mystery behind the truth tells a captivating story of Grace and her mental state. Is she crazy or a genius? Trying to figure that out is half the fun.

As entertaining as it is to watch Danza and Groban together, there are a lot of cracks on the surface...

The scenery is amazing and the film looks like one giant ad for cruises, but the actual essence of the film lacks substance.

The writing is smart and balanced and the chemistry between the cast feels natural.

If you like quirky charm and feel good stories, then I would say it’s worth giving a shot.

I can’t say it’s enough to justify bringing back the show…a show that was so good and impactful when it was first on.

Lighthearted and funny...

Is it must-see TV? Probably not. But, it does have enough heart to be enjoyable.
