Bubble Gum Movie Review







A film like BUBBLE GUM also takes you back to those years when Facebook, Twitter, internet, TV and cell phones didn't exist. Sure, a film like BUBBLE GUM will not set the box-office ablaze, but a genuine effort needs to be encouraged. The difficult phase while one is stepping into teenage and the problems one encounters then -- however trivial they may appear today -- seemed so enormous then. One cannot go back in time, but films like BUBBLE GUM make you recall those years with a lot of love and positivity. On the whole, BUBBLE GUM has its heart in the right place. A film that arrives with zilch expectations, but succeeds in taking you back in time when life was simpler and sweet. Recommended!

No high drama, no pubescent hysteria, no artifice, no guile.... Yes,Bubble Gum is a sweet and sensitive ode to growing up in an age when there was no Facebook, no internet and no mobiles.Bubble Gum may not score high on the entertainment quotient and is definitely not meant for the popcorn guzzlers. But the film has a piquant charm to it, spilling over with mood, sentiment and message. Add to this, the life-like performances by almost all the actors, including the two teen actors (Delzad and Sohail as the hearing-impaired), and you have a film that offers a satisfying experience.

what makes Bubblegum an entertaining watch is the absolutely realistic & mature treatment to adolescent issues generally discarded as frivolous. Also it doesn't become a victim of Bollywood's fast and fabricated version of teenage crisis.But if you understand the film just as a story of blossoming romance, set within a teenage structure, you might only be partly right.
That's because the film is essentially a sweet tale of two loving yet bickering brothers

There are several nice things about the film. The let-the kids-be-kids tenet is adhered to strictly : adults come in only when they need to.Bubble Gum’ gets it to the rights, with its life-like portrayal of a couple of small-town teenage brothers experiencing the first stirrings of young adulthood. 'Bubble Gum’ suffers from some amount of narrative drabness, and some strange too-quick transitions. But it is a film that needs to be noted for its appealing cast and being true to itself.

What’s Good: A couple of emotional scenes; acting of Sachin and Tanvi.What’s Bad: Lack of light scenes; lack of emotions. Verdict: Bubble Gum is well-meaning but that’s not enough for a film to make a mark at the box-office.

The coming of age teenybopper, BUBBLE GUM, which is set in the backdrop of Jamshedpur, is a film that revolves around first romances, friendship, parent-child relationship and peer pressure. The best part about the film is its engaging performances and perfect casting and characterization. BUBBLE GUM is a refreshing, heart-warming tale that makes us nostalgic of the good old days. This 'Bubble Gum' must be blown! A must watch

Bubble Gum is surely about parenting. The story of the film Bubble Gum is very realistic, but it would have created more of an impact if it was set in today's time, the teens could have related to it in better way. The film has children as actors, but it is not a children's film. Few of the fight scenes look pretty unrealistic. Parents of teenage kids can give the movie a shot.
