Tubbs’s Film Reviews

8089 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Yeelen (Brightness) (1987): Slowly paced and needs a bit of patience at times but worth it.
Denial (2016): With all due respect to the excellence of the performers, you have to ask the question why this distasteful topic has been regurgitated and Irving given his day in court again. The final scenes are Hollywood.
Broken Arrow (1996): Standard action film headed by a well–played annoying Travolta character.
Weekend at Dunkirk (1964): The screenplay didn't amount to much but the shooting locations and the war re–enactments were commendable.
Battle Heater (Kotatsu) (1990): It is not always easy to follow but that doesn't really matter as it is off the wall.
Madagascar Skin (1995): A witty script written for two interesting characters would be enough to set this apart from most films but there is also cream in the casting.
Middle Men (2009): It threatened to be good at times.
Hunt for the Wilderpeople (2016): The screenplay never quite recovers from the early loss of Rima Te Wiata's character but to the credit of all, it remains watchable.; DVD $29.95 | Blu-Ray $34.95
Night We Called it a Day, The (2003): Hopper can never be boring and the casting is a real mish–mash of Australian, American and British performers which adds to the interest.
Handsome Devil (2016): Another boarding school drama with the compulsory bullying sub–theme. The early promise doesn't eventuate and the screenplay becomes predictable.
