IanP.Sep 9, 20071Good acting, but melodramatic, horrible ending, full of cliches about Jews, Arabs, gays. Tries to be everything to everyone and ends up failing at every turn. They should have focused on hipsters in Tel Aviv, instead of trying to tell a "bigger" story about the Mideast conflict.

70Eytan Fox delivers another involving tale in The Bubble.
-
Given the upbeat, tender rhythms of the movie's love story, the climax--a cry of bottomless despair--comes as a profound shock. It's meant to, and though the ending is touched by the goofy absurdities of melodrama, Fox's mix-and-match sampling of apparently incompatible genres nails the nervous blend of vitality and desperation that is Israel today.

One might question the operatic finale, which doesn't quite have the inevitability of the greatest tragic love stories. But the film's humanism gives it an overwhelming impact. To Israeli audiences, the experience must be even more explosive.
