Tubbs’s Film Reviews

886 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

What Price Glory? (1952): A funny animal in some ways. The soldiers behave like cowboys and the screenplay is a mixture of war, comedy, and music. Entertaining enough, however.
Good Morning, Vietnam (1987): A good plot idea with a very good soundtrack. The first half of the screenplay is the best.
Persuasion (2007): Sally saves script writers time with her facial expressions. Very well produced without going overboard.
Blood For Dust (2023): I think they made a genuine attempt to put some intelligence in the script to set it apart from the many others in the genre.; DVD $29.95 | Blu-Ray $34.95
End Of The Spear (2005): You end up getting the point.
Smart People (2008): A good female cast. A beard covers part of Quaid's smirk which helps.
Lean On Me (1989): One of a number of classroom dramas. Freeman yells at everyone from start to finish, others are yelling and it becomes a yellathon.
Flight of the Navigator (1986): The kid got a bit screechy at times but the screenplay is intelligent and entertaining.
Atanarjuat (The Fast Runner) (2001): The length of the screenplay requires patience, but if slow, is never boring, and there is the location to admire plus an interesting soundtrack.; DVD ~~$29.95~~ $15
Ladyhawke (1985): Forty years on it is not ageing too well, particularly for its lengthy running time.
