I am not sure whether I loved this film or hated it. I have mixed feelings but I assume that's how I am supposed to feel.

Gleefully perverse and completely unpredictable, Bad Boy Bubby features an outstanding central performance from Nicholas Hope as a mentally-stunted shut-in discovering the outside world. It's as dark as fish-out-of-water stories come, as the opening scenes are disturbing to say the very least, but the adventure that follows is full of fun and humour, and the unique lead character shows an impressive consistency in his actions through the story.

Wow, this was better than I expected. The film is pretty damn bizarre and, frankly, disgusting for its first 30 minutes or so. But as it evolves, it proves itself to be intelligent and genuinely touching. The lead performance from Nicholas Hope is totally brilliant. If you can stomach the beginning of the film, you'll be rewarded. I liked it a lot.

An interesting premise to begin with, though it sure does rush through its story, not leaving quite enough time on each of Bubby's predicaments. Something like a more Australian and more fucked up version of Forest Gump, though a lot more cynical than sentimental. There's a great performance at the centre of the film that almost keeps it together, but I get the feeling Rolf de Heer keeps losing attention to focus on humongous breasts instead (no woman in this film wear a bra).
