Tubbs’s Film Reviews

241 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Plenty (1985): An uneven screenplay and an out of place Meryl Streep but there are some good segments and a very good British supporting cast.
Commander in Chief (TV Series) (2005): Once the freshness of the main idea wears off it becomes repetitive as each crisis needs to be faced. It was no different to watching the news. Unfortunately, Geena had a family which meant writing in unnecessary characters but she & Sutherland were good.
Asteroid City (2023): Whilst the screenplay is hard work the artwork and set designs are very commendable.
Diary of Anne Frank, The (1959): Considering location wise it is very limited it does well to generate some interest & even a little suspense but it does die at times particularly when the young couple are on screen plus the story's outcome is well known.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
Antoinette in the Cevennes (2020): The donkey segments and the locations were fine (as was the weather) but you can forget most of the rest.; DVD $29.95
Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (Mission Impossible 7) (2023): It does resemble an 007 adventure. The main ingredients are the same but I would give Mission Impossible the nod on the theme tune.
Murphy Brown (TV Series) (1988-1998): S1: Although the laughter track works overtime the screenplay is not all that funny but the characters are likeable and it avoids soppiness.
It Should Happen to You (1954): The material is very light but Judy makes it watchable plus there is some 50s New York location shooting to add interest.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
DL Chronicles, The (TV Series) (2005): The flow of the screenplay is disrupted every few minutes because of the character's need to touch lips but the series could have some cult value.
Last Action Hero (1993): It entertainingly breaks the action movie mould but beware of the kid's voice.
