Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader: A sweet tempered but occasionally simplistic youth picture. Read more
John Hartl, Seattle Times: The casting is spot-on; the blend of erotic comedy and political drama is stunningly smooth; the finale is both devastating and inevitable. Read more
Tasha Robinson, AV Club: Real love is often as complicated and painful as Middle Eastern politics, and Fox might have been better off acknowledging that, rather than making his characters such vague, sweet, safe ciphers. Read more
Ty Burr, Boston Globe: Director Eytan Fox may believe that Middle East politics are an obstruction to happiness, but his movie uses the tensions of the region like badly spaced speed bumps. Read more
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times: [Fox] gives his beautiful dreamers plenty of leeway to win us over. Read more
Ella Taylor, L.A. Weekly: Fox's mix-and-match sampling of apparently incompatible genres nails the nervous blend of vitality and desperation that is Israel today. Read more
Jan Stuart, Newsday: The Bubble, which manages to be effortlessly breezy without shortchanging on topicality, epitomizes [Director] Fox's adroit talent for juxtaposing the personal and the political. Read more
Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger: The director seems to be welcoming controversy, however, pushing buttons to evoke strong responses and stimulate discussion. Read more
Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: Israeli director Eytan Fox specializes in blending the mundane with the extraordinary -- an everyday dichotomy for the characters in his sensitive drama about life in Tel Aviv. Read more
V.A. Musetto, New York Post: Fox deserves credit for pointing out the hardships under which Palestinians live. But the comedy is without distinction and the conclusion is melodramatic. Read more
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer: I am not sure what the point of the movie is supposed to be, but [director] Fox, his cast and his collaborators are singularly unconvincing in their abruptly shifting gears between comedy and tragedy. Read more
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer: Read more
Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com: Fox does better in his serious dramatic mode than he does with light comedy, at least to my taste. Read more
David Wiegand, San Francisco Chronicle: God is in the details for director Eytan Fox, and it doesn't matter whether that God happens to be worshiped by Israelis or Palestinians. Read more
Bill Stamets, Chicago Sun-Times: Don't bet on this Israeli drama exploding any cliches. Read more
Jason McBride, Globe and Mail: It's as if Fox sets out to punish his characters for their ignorance, abandoning a sensitive and occasionally surprising love story in favour of political cliche. Read more
Toronto Star: As forcefully optimistic and it is frankly unconvincing, the soapy Israeli-made The Bubble is a cry for peace from the comfort of the couch. Read more
