Bubble

I struggled to find redeeming features here. There is a resounding echo of "so what?" that plagues the telling of the story, amounting to mostly whether someone is going to stare at something off-screen with their mouth open and potentially with some tears.

The majority of the exposition is vomited in narration, characters are set up as a mere bundle of traits that don't spark into any sort of meaningful illusion about being alive, the animation is impressive only if you've never seen the tricks (pun aside or not) before. So much explanation seems to be "required" to understand things that would have strongly benefitted from being left to figure it out yourself, because the flat explanations all suck ass.

Much of the aesthetic execution is adequate, but it's supported on a narrative so flimsy and vacant in its depths that I couldn't help but suspect that calling it Bubble is some kind of production gag.

This gag couldn't have been one from the minds of anyone involved with writing this abysmal dreck directly, given the witless and flat characterization on display, so I can't give full credit for wit in that regard either.

Whenever there isn't a disembodied voice droning on or an "I assure you this runny jumpy sequence is cool" sequence, all inter-character scenes seem to have an underlying argument for their inclusion that feels as though this is some kind of job interview.

Look! This is a emotional scene. Look! We're all freaking out about a sci-fi thing together. But it never really matters why the scene ought to be emotional, nor is the sense of the scale of any particular threat really clear even when a bunch of parts are moving at once.

Tremendous sucking power, indeed.

Dingus Ace with A Problem and his Shortstack Mystery Chick interrupt the Sports Anime to do... what? Excluding the pair from the film and forcing the original team to solve its own problems, rather than be Parkour Fantasy 7 where just the lead guy can fix everything himself while his party does different shots of the same face about it, could have made the story interesting.

The first time someone is truly at risk of something bad happening to them, DAWAP flings in and solves it, setting expectations thusly: nobody else in this movie is going to matter.

If anyone gets in trouble and we're tricked into believing they should make it to the credits, one or two other people are going to fly in and make sure they're gonna be OK.

The lead characters murder the potential for any dramatic tension in any conflict that occurs, leaving us with Cool Shit To Look At, but even then, it's not cool enough to make up for it.

tl;dr- long demo reel, skip it.
