Be warned - if you 'diff' a file in your WC, you are comparing against
the pristine copy before you started making your changes, not against
the repository. If someone else has checked in changes, you won't see
them in that diff. Of course you can do a 'Show log', pick the latest
revision and compare _that_ with your WC if you want to see other
peoples' changes too. Sorry if you already know this and I'm preaching
to the converted ;-)

Comparing 2 revisions in the same trunk/branch/tag is very easy. Just do
a Show log for that file/folder, select the 2 revisions (using
Ctrl-click), and use diff from the context menu.

If the revisions come from 2 different tags, then it is a bit more
fiddly. You have to use the repo browser, and expand both tag trees to
expose the same file/folder in each. Then you can select the two items
and diff as before.
