Tubbs’s Film Reviews

1183 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Gold (The Great Gold Conspiracy) (1974): Not memorable but a watchable screenplay with an interesting cast.
Halt and Catch Fire (TV Series) (2014-2017): S1:It did not catch fire for me but it could find an audience.
Bringing Out the Dead (1999): It is well written with some good off beat humour. The shooting locations are well chosen and add to the darkness.
Million Pound Note, The (1953): Excellent satirical writing. A good supporting cast with the wonderful Joyce Grenfell stealing her scenes.
A Star Is Born (1976): It didn't matter to Barbara that another version of the story was unnecessary. She did everything with gusto and she is the main reason for the film's raison d'être.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023): The animation of the city particularly the streets was excellent.
Magnificent Ambersons, The (1942): It never betters the opening scenes but the writing is pretty good throughout and the camera work is always interesting.
How About You? (2008): A smashing female cast plus Joss.
Perfumes (2019): Lightly entertaining, without being silly, and undemanding.; DVD $29.95
Masculin Feminin (1966): It has some good segments and some great 60s location shooting but the main male character just doesn't seem to do anything with his life and is mainly a waste of space.
