Description

BUBBLE BOY is the hilarious, laugh-out-loud comedy about a sheltered young man (Jake Gyllenhaal — Prince Of Persia) who breaks all the rules on a wild adventure to get the girl of his dreams. Although he’s lived his entire life within the confines of a protective plastic bubble and under the ever-watchful eye of his overprotective mother (Swoosie Kurtz — Get Over It), Jimmy Livingston (Gyllenhaal) never thought that he’d missed out on anything — until the girl next door (Marley Shelton — Valentine, Never Been Kissed) ran off to get married in Niagara Falls. With the wedding only days away, Jimmy has no choice but to build a mobile “bubble suit” and set off across the country to stop the wedding and confess his love to her.

    Went ahead read the reviews saw Jake Gyllenhaal was in it, and decided to buy this. For some reason it said it wouldn't download , so I went ahead and tried renting it "twice" it was showing up in my videos yet it wasn't able to be played. It took double the amount of money I had on here.
  • Very Funny!

    I'll admit this movie isn't exactly "Citizen Kane," but it's a great movie if you want a good laugh, especially if you're into weird humor, like me. If you want an intelligent comedy, you're looking at the wrong film, good sir. However, if you're looking for a movie that's a bit stupid but still funny, you've hit the jackpot. BUY IT NOW!!!! =)

    This is one of those movies (Mystery Men comes to mind) that plays at being dumb, but in a very smart way. Jimmy, the Bubble Boy, seems a bit simple, but he is good and honest and brave—although since he is encased in a bubble and isolated from the world, he is very odd. The plot is a simple one, the quest, as Jimmy crosses the country to declare his undying love. You must have an appreciation of the absurd and outlandish to enjoy this movie, and a tolerance for what you could only call freaks, Howard Stern-style. Indeed, what some people see as dumb humor I find to be pretty sophisticated stuff, in sort of a Python-esque, absurdist way. It could be I'm an idiot, and this is just crap, but it seems like I'm in pretty good company . . . this movie just needed some time to find its audience.

    I didn't know if I was going to like this movie, but I really loved it. I'm not going to lie it is pretty stupid, but in a way that makes it really witty and enjoyable. I don't know, if you take things too seriously and don't have a sense of humour, then don't buy it I guess.
