Bubble Boy

I enjoyed the movie, Bubble Boy, as a piece of fun entertainment. The movie is at times silly and the whole premise is rather implausible, but I think that is part of what makes it fun to watch. Jake Gyllenhaal is a boy that has to grow up in a bubble because of his lack of immunities. When the girl next door goes off to get married the Bubble Boy, now a young man, goes off to find her and confess his love. He builds a portable bubble and takes off. The whole series of adventures for someone out in the world for the first times is rather crazy but good entertainment.
I liked recent movies with Jake Gyllenhaal and decided to look for some of his earlier movies that might be hard to find. After searching his name on ebay I found this movie, along with a couple of others, and was able to get it at a good price. It arrived quickly, was in excellent condition and was a lot of fun to watch. This particular title would certainly be hard to find new or used and has been out so long that most video stores would not have it. This movie is very different from any thing recent with Mr. Gyllenhaal and good G rated entertainment. It was a great find and the price, even considering shipping costs, was excellent for a previously viewed movie.
