Tubbs’s Film Reviews

8089 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Vikings, The (1958): Standard screenplay but the beautiful locations are kept to the fore particularly with the photography of the master Jack Cardiff.
Muppets Take Manhattan, The (1984): I don't believe the fans will be disappointed. Go Animal!
Crossroads (1986): A serviceable screenplay that does the job of showpiecing some great blues music.
High Ground (2020): The story has been done a few times before in other parts of the world but the photography (particularly the aerial shots) is stunning.; DVD $29.95 | Blu-Ray $34.95
Deep Blue Sea, The (2011): Rachel is fine but the strength of the film lies in the production detail – for example, her room with the depressing wallpaper is spot on (as Spike Milligan would note – you turn the light on and the room gets darker) as is the bomb damage in the street.
Greenland (2020): It compares pretty well to many others in the end of the world genre.
Godzilla: Final Wars (2004): It is very ordinary when the screen is occupied by photogenic humans. It is very much better when there are monsters and cheap special effects.
New Mutants, The (2020): It didn't grab you and hold your attention.
Howling II, The (Your Sister Is A Werewolf) (1985): Most of the howling came from the audience.
Clan, The (2015): A better than average screenplay for a kidnapping film, an impressive performance from Guillermo Francella, and the proceedings are topped off by an unexpected bouncy soundtrack.
