Synopsis

Bad Boy Bubby is just that: a bad boy. So bad, in fact, that his mother has kept him locked in their house for his entire thirty years, convincing him that the air outside is poisonous. After a visit from his estranged father, circumstances force Bubby into the waiting world, a place which is just as unusual to him as he is to the world.

Alicia I love this movie so much
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
astagl I would've given my review a much higher score if it weren't for the rather viciously slow pacing of the film. But wow! Many of the scenes are very darkly disturbing, and hard to watch. But then, you'll flash over to a wonderfully comical scene that had made sides hurting. I really don't want to talk too much about the film, as my review will not cover what other reviewer's have already mentioned. I just wanted to be able to add my brief comments and give it a star review. Watch it if you don't get offended easily. It's now on Amazon prime for free to watch.
Per Johnsen Why is this the best film ever made? First of all, it has an introduction that just knocks you over. I have never been so completely hooked by anything in film, before or since, as by the absolute multi phobic first half hour of this film, where one discover Bubby's more than miserable life together with his mother. Both Nicholas Hope and Claire Benito deserve the highest honor for their achievements. And the rest of the story is just one of the strangest ever written and made for the silver screen. It's simply one of a kind, totally unique, delightfully bizarre and absolutely mind blowing. An equal philosophical roller coaster trip such as Bad Boy Bubby is damn hard to surpass, if it's even possible. The very strange or very normal characters are all so perfectly fitted into the story that it becomes something beyond film experience. No film I've ever seen before or since has come close. If I could rate it 12, I would !
thespillmonkey This movie was bad. If you enjoyed it, you might also be bad. There was a lot of fat in the movie, and a lot of oily, blubbery, exposed skin. I never thought I would watch a stink-mouthed man child desperately try to grope and make love to a mentally challenged, disabled creature. There was also a lot of animal cruelty and I find that distasteful.I was really excited about this movie because the internet said I should be. I can't believe I had to sit through this after watching a Throne Game not even a half hour earlier. That had dragons and not-greasy ladies and a broats game. I really hated the broats game, but 9/10 people say they'd rather do a broats game than a Bubby one.Sorry that you like this movie.In short, I think the director should be imprisoned for war crimes.
philip-oliver This was a wild ride and not for the faint-hearted. The movie has been around a while but has lost none of it's impact. It's original, refreshing, gross and strangely compelling. The start doesn't give you any indication as to where it is going to end up. There is a shift in momentum after half an hour when the movie hits the streets running. It's quite eclectic, with some random events going on that may or may not add to the flow but all are designed to build a picture of mayhem through perfectly timed mimicry. If you are a cat lover then this movie is not recommended for you. Amongst all the grime and squalor is a real child like sweetness, ever present but regularly blown away with yet another rage against past injustices. There is also large doses of dark humour. I found this movie unique, engrossing and enjoyable. Sure there is some unevenness and other minor flaws but the full package was plenty for me. Thank you, thank you – I applaud your efforts
