Tubbs’s Film Reviews

1096 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Guys and Dolls (1955): Overall, the musical numbers were not too bad, but we could have done with a bit less of what was in between.
Bay of Angels (La baie des anges) (1963): The screenplay is strongest in its first half, but it holds to its main anti–gambling message throughout.
Looking for Hortense (2012): Not my kind of screenplay, but Jean–Pierre and Kristin have a strong screen presence.
Few Days in September, A (Quelques jours en septembre) (2006): The screenplay didn't take off despite Binoche and Turturro. Nolte appeared briefly, but I couldn't work out a word he said.
Educating Rita (1983): The second half weakens a bit, but the two performers could never be boring.; DVD ~~$20~~ $15
Code 46 (2003): The two leads spend most of the time in the bedroom, which I suppose that it is where they are meant to be, but it suffocates what could have been a better use of the basic plot idea.
Solomon and Sheba (1959): The production is a product of its time. The romance scenes provide some light relief.
Thing, The (The Thing From Another World) (1951): The screenplay intelligently takes its time before introducing The Thing.
Born Free (1965): It should remain a family favourite for generations to come.
Right At Your Door (2006): To its credit, the scenario was a touch different to the norm.
