Tubbs’s Film Reviews

8089 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Fear in the Night (1972): Okay, but it doesn't really have anything new to offer.
Transformers: The Last Knight (2017): Why does it have to be so long? – it is repeating special effects already seen earlier in the franchise – although these remain very good it must be challenging the appetite even of its fans.
American Pastoral (2016): The screenplay is uneven and at times untidy. Jennifer Connelly's performance is the highlight.
Tombstone (1993): In two hours the screenplay doesn't go very far – appropriately it more or less stays in Tombstone.
Endless, The (2017): It didn't maintain my attention first time around but as it has good reviews I will try again.
Wonder (2017): The screenplay is a bit predictable.
Ginger & Rosa (Ginger and Rosa) (2012): Based in the days of corduroys & duffel coats & a little thing called the BOMB. Elle Fanning is outstanding. The supporting cast is quality. The family bust–up scene is well written, correctly played out & avoids the traps.
Valhalla Rising (2009): For an hour and a half the tension is unrelenting, perhaps only relieved a touch by some gorgeous location shooting, but even then you are sneaking a look behind.
Hitchcock (2012): The production values are quality. Hopkins does a remarkable job on his posture and voice and the make up people do the rest. A wonderful cutting performance from Helen Mirren adds value.
Commuter, The (2018): Above average escapism thanks mainly to Liam Neeson for making even the silly bits work. There is one scene of genuine suspense and overall it is entertaining and worth a look.
