2.5/4
The Bubble has frequently been compared to an episode of The Twilight Zone, although DNA from Invasion of the Body Snatchers also seems to be prevalent. Go to Full Review Phil Villarreal Arizona Daily Star Jan 26, 2006
3/4
The film drifts into ambiguity, teasing the viewer to collect enough evidence to choose the culprit. Some viewers may enjoy puzzling over the vague mystery, while others will see the ending as a cop-out. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

nick s @Nick_S Mar 30, 2024 The set design was good, but that's all the positives I can come up with for this B grade movie. The acting was very patchy and didn't immerse you in the adventure. The story just ambled along looking lost. Ending was a hopeless copout. Hard to watch. See more Blobbo X @Blobbo Aug 24, 2023 Saw with papa Blobbo at the show when came out. Even with 3D glasses and floating beer tray - nice effect, btw - Blobbo remembers being disappointed, as was papa. See more Feb 28, 2012 I saw this movie back in the 70's in a theatre, mainly to watch a 3-D flick (which was a slight fad back then). I don't really remember much of the film itself, except when a tray, for no reason whatsoever other than to illustrate the 3-D aspect, just lifted off a table, and slowly (whilst swaying to and fro) drifted towards the audience.
