Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Great Film overall

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

I have been on IMDb for awhile, but this is the first movie that I commented on. And I did so because I simply could not believe that this movie got such low ratings! This has got to be one of the near perfect comedies that I have ever seen. It is fresh and exciting. Jake Gyllenhaal is infectiously innocent, energetic and silly. The movie is a cross between Pee Wee's Big Adventure and almost any John Waters film. I just watched it again and my face and sides are still hurting from laughing so hard. What I really liked about this movie was its perfect coordination of silly with smart humor. And as a few commenters here have mentioned, there is a lot of symbolism going on in this movie, so watch it once for the pure silly joy of it, then watch it again for the deeper meaning.

So I was expecting for me to think this was the dumbest movie ever, but I was pleasantly surprised with how entertained I was. While incredibly ridiculous and unbelievable, it was pretty funny and interesting. Jake Gyllenhaal was slightly miscast in my opinion, but still delivered a quirky and charming performance as the "Bubble boy". Really, all the supporting characters were hilarious as well. Perhaps some of the humor is a bit too "out there" for everyone, but I think some people will appreciate the film's creativity and originality. While still following the rom-com formula, this movie is still a step above and a breath of fresh air.

This is not academy award winning material here. This is not a film for you to think and analyze too deeply. This is a goofy, silly movie that is a spoof of the TV movie "The Boy in the Plastic Bubble", and spoofs quite a few other things as well.Jake Gyllenhaall plays the main character - a boy who was born without a working immune system. He spends his life in the house with this piously religious, over protective mother played by Swoosie Kurtz and his quite father played by John Carroll Lynch. One of his only friends is his next door neighbor played by Marlie Shelton who decides to get married to the worst guy ever played by Dave Sheridan - and this is where Bubble boys decides to take he and his Bubble on the road to stop the wedding which is to be held in Niagra Falls. This is where the adventure begins. Bubble Boy hasn't had any other contact with humans except for in his room and once out in the world, he meets the most craziest of characters and experiences things he never had before as he is on his quest to Niagra Falls to stop the wedding of the girl he loves.Fun, very silly, lampoons and goofy as all get up - this is a film for those days you feel like that type of entertainment.

OK, maybe this is not one of Jake Gyllenhaals better movies, but it had me in stitches. Jake's madness in his acting in this film adds to the appeal. It's one of those refreshing films you can watch, laugh at, maybe shed a tear of joy but not have to think about it after. Yes, it maybe a stereotypical American love story, but it takes the idea and adds a twist of humour. Jake is a guy who has been bought up in a bubble as he has no immune system, so any germs he comes into contact with may kill him. As he grows older he starts to experience things in life that we in our every day lives are used to...particularly girls. There are some really funny moments in this film. If you're looking for a giggle, a bit of Jake cuteness and a night in i recommend this highly!
