Tubbs’s Film Reviews

886 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Living (2022): Have you ever wondered what a London office in the 1950s looked like? Maybe not.
An Angel at My Table (1990): There is a smooth performance transition between the three Janet's. Alexia Keogh has my soft spot & the early scenes are the best. Kerry shows her range in coping with the bulk of the screenplay which has its odd lull in particular the Spanish segment.; DVD ~~$25~~ $18.75
Beauty Remains (Mei ren yi jiu) (2005): It has a very familiar screenplay.
Curious George (2006): The Jack Johnson soundtrack certainly helped.
Brighton Rock (2010): Although the screenplay gradually falls away there is some fine location shooting and splendid performances from Andrea Riseborough with great support from veterans Helen Mirren, John Hurt, and Phil Davis.; DVD $19.95, $34.95 | Blu-Ray $19.95
A Thousand Times Goodnight (2013): The quality of Juliette makes it watchable.
Collaborator (2011): The two male leads were fine but Olivia was wasted. The screenplay played like a play and as a film needed patience.
Noble House (Mini-Series) (1988): It takes a while to tell the story. The best segments involve John Rhys–Davies, with Dudley Sutton also livening things up. The supporting cast, with the likes of the dependable Gordon Jackson, is overall pretty good.
US vs. John Lennon, The (2006): He was a threat.
A-Team, The (TV Series) (1982): Series 1: There are hints of humour but it is more a curiosity piece 40 years on.; DVD ~~$30~~ $22.50
