Tubbs’s Film Reviews

1215 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Savages, The (2007): A tricky screenplay is well negotiated by the principals.; DVD ~~$20~~ $15
Switching Channels (1988): The comedy is intentionally forced, but although some of the performances are a bit overcooked at times, the screenplay has a good satirical thread.
Indian Fighter, The (1955): A good support cast helped. The screenplay was okay except for a silly romantic subplot.
Nosferatu (1979): Beautifully photographed. I wouldn't have thought that Klaus needed makeup.
Flower Drum Song (1961): Not one of R & H's strongest, but certainly worth watching. An all Asian cast was groundbreaking for the USA at the time.
Very Hungry Caterpillar, The (2004): Not too bad.
Breaking the Girls (2012): I don't think I've seen as much kissing in a screenplay. If you didn't keep moving, you got kissed.
Insignificance (1985): A curiosity piece.
Heart Of The Earth, The (El corazón de la tierra) (2007): The screenplay is not without interest because of the historical backdrop.
Aliens (1986): You need to wait until the later scenes for the screenplay to get going. Until then, it is all preamble to the main bout, Ripley v Aliens.
