Tubbs’s Film Reviews

713 Films have been rated or reviewed by Tubbs.

Governess, The (1998): Good production values, including the soundtrack, but the screenplay could have been so much better if it had focused solely on the photography theme.
Romper Stomper (1992): A bit dated viewing 30 years on but it is still worthwhile.
Separate Tables (1958): The writing is strong and the casting is an excellent mix.
A Swedish Love Story (1970): Screentime is shared between the two young lovers and the adults but it is the latter who are the more interesting by often receiving the Andersson touch.
Apprentice, The (2024): It was okay but it doesn't really add much to what is already generally known.; DVD $29.95 | Blu-Ray $34.95
Divertimento (2023): Whilst the screenplay does get commercial at times, particularly in the finale, unusually it does avoid being sidetracked by a romantic subplot. The two young ladies are very good and the production of the musical segments competently done.; DVD $29.95
Jonathan Livingston Seagull (1973): There is some excellent camera work to support the environmental message.; Blu-Ray $34.95
Garden of Allah (1936): Marlene's strong screen presence dominates.
Sydney White (Sydney White and the Seven Dorks) (2007): Not as good as "Mean Girls" (2004) but the seven derivative characters work pretty well.
55 Days at Peking (1963): The ending was crappy and not worth waiting over 2 hours for.
