Tubbs’s Film Reviews

886 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Nope (2022): Visually interesting and visually impressive.
Talk of the Town, The (1942): The comedy only flares now and again but Jean Arthur at least tries hard to keep the flame alive in this not too convincing screenplay.
Greta (According to Greta) (2009): Ellen Burstyn is clearly the best thing in this and makes it worth a try.
Fifty Shades Freed (2017): We are finally freed.
Kiss Me Kate (1953): The dance numbers throughout are excellent and not just by the quality operators Ann Miller and Tommy Rall. The Cole Porter songs are the icing on the Kate.
Comfort of Strangers, The (1991): More dialogue than action but it is Pinter's. Walken's smile can be chilling.
Spread (2009): I think it might have been made during one of the writer's strikes.
Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris (2022): Well made and works thanks to Lesley Manville. The great Isabelle Huppert is wasted.
Speedway Junky (1999): An uneven screenplay but it does have some good segments even if they are not particularly original. It climaxes but then drags out for another few scenes which doesn't help. The performances are okay but some of the strutting young males are annoying.
Cocaine Bear (2023): Although the screenplay weakens a little, overall it is a comedy horror that works. The bear activity is cleverly done.
