Tubbs’s Film Reviews

Bridget Jones: The Edge of ReasonBridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004)
2 stars (Good Try) Although there is a different plot to the original both depend on the same characters so there is a "sameness" that is hanging around the neck of this sequel – it is watchable but Renee's character does mumble unfortunately.
Hello, My Name is DorisHello, My Name is Doris (2015)
2 stars (Good Try) I'm not a Sally Field fan but she does extremely well with this and makes a not so strong screenplay watchable.
Postman Always Rings TwicePostman Always Rings Twice (1946)
3 stars (Good Enough) It was interesting that Lana was dressed in white for most of this black and white drama – she shone and performed well also. A good screenplay with Hume Cronyn the standout as a weasel lawyer.
Huntsman, The: Winter's WarHuntsman, The: Winter's War (2016)
2 stars (Good Try) If you haven't seen many violent fantasy films then this should appeal with this strong female cast and good special effects – however if you have then its business as usual.
Eddie the EagleEddie the Eagle (2016)Recommended
2 stars (Good Try) Entertaining and hard to dislike – the ski jumping scenes are well done. The adaptable Tim McInnery portrays the British upper class twits very well.
East of EdenEast of Eden (1955)Recommended
2 stars (Good Try) The set designs are commendable but the screenplay is ruined by Dean – who can't act and is embarrassing. Raymond Massey is as solid as ever though as is Burl Ives who pops up now and again.
Slipstream Slipstream (Slipstream Dream) (2007)
2 stars (Good Try) I found this more watchable when I stopped trying to follow the plot – if nothing else at least John Turturro enjoyed himself.
Time of the GypsiesTime of the Gypsies (1990)Recommended
3 stars (Good Enough) The first half is strongest but at all times it is never boring nor predictable.The off beat comedic moments are gems. I don't know how truly it represents gypsy life from the period but hopefully the typical male was not as mercenary as these characters
Anger ManagementAnger Management (2003)
2 stars (Good Try) Sandler is not too bad in this plus there is a very talented support/cameo cast in Tomei, Turturro, Stanton etc. The plot idea is fine but it doesn't last out the running time.
Lisa and the DevilLisa and the Devil (1972)
2 stars (Good Try) It's not that good but it has a certain appeal through its corny acting and its general look.
