I guess I did not find The Bubble very compelling mainly because for the first 90 minutes it felt like a Friends episode, as it follows a group of good-looking, young friends who live in Tel Aviv. These stories always kind of aggravate me, because it is as if I was part of a larger group of friends who have their own in-jokes and expect me to laugh and play along because they're so hip and cool. I guess Fox is trying to be critical of these people for not doing more to break out of their "bubble", but I felt this got overshadowed by the romantic and sexual shenanigans of the protagonists.
To be fair, the actors playing Noam (Ohad Knoller), Lulu (Daniela Virtzer), and Ashraf (Joe Sweid) did a good job fleshing their characters out and making them likeable and sympathethic.
In the last twenty minutes the film dramatically switches gears as it lays bear the tragedy of the characters' lives--and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict--with the subtlety of a jackhammer.
