Tubbs’s Film Reviews

8089 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Royal Night Out, A (2015): They do well to stretch the screenplay to feature length. The period settings and wardrobe are commendable.
Jagged Edge (1985): The screenplay is not convincing and neither is the love affair on which it depends.
Dunkirk (1958): It takes a while to reach the evacuation scenes but they are worth waiting for. There is some flag waving and propaganda but there is also a genuine attempt to show the less glamorous side such as the cock ups and the panicking troops.
Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame (2010): There are some good set designs and special effects but the screenplay would have been better losing half an hour.
Lego Batman Movie, The (2017): It is okay but you can only do so much with Lego characters and accordingly it is too long.
A Man Called Horse (1970): The screenplay is uneven and runs out of steam toward the end but at least it is refreshingly different.
Hangover, The: Part 3 (2013): A big comedown from the original in the series.
Craft, The (1996): The first half is quite promising but in the end fails to deliver.
What Happens in Vegas (2008): The old material is given some life by an energetic performance from Cameron.
Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (2008): The opening scenes were fine but then as soon as the swords started flashing and the arrows flying it was downhill – it was then indistinguishable from a million other action films.
