Tubbs’s Film Reviews

826 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Taps (1981): A silly screenplay, but then again these days, truth can spring more surprises than fiction.
Bug (2006): A bit different to the normal horror fare with Michael Shannon made to order.
Conversation, The (1974): A very good and always topical plot idea is transferred extremely well to the screen. A low key but effective performance from Hackman helps.
Little Man Tate (1991): Most of it was good, but it lost its way toward the end. The casting of the title character was spot on.
Decameron, The (1970): The characters contribute greatly to its entertainment value. The cinematography is easy on the eye, and the set designs are interesting.
Of Mice and Men (1992): A solid story and very good performances throughout.; DVD $24.95
September Issue, The (2009): The documentary is well made along with everything else on display. A privileged look at another world.
Catch and Release (2006): Not my kind of screenplay, particularly at two hours, but Jennifer Garner and Juliette Lewis are as usual very good.
Funny Kinda Guy (2004): The story is a bit different to the norm and some of the music is okay.
In Her Shoes (2005): The screenplay needs patience as it does not have enough substance to justify the running time.
