Quote:
"Bubbles Galore [...] is a spicy, comic look at the porn business that manages to combine a feminist message about the rights of sex workers with a large dollop of fairly explicit bedroom action, much of which is deliberately made to look like a real, low-budget XXX pic. Even more surprising is the film's almost-sappy, romantic side, which turns this offbeat feature into a strange cross-pollination of an old-fashioned, Hollywood tear-jerker with Deep Throat. The frequent sex scenes, many of which focus on all-female gymnastics, will limit the film's reach, as will the low-fi production values. But the pic's hip politics, the presence of porn activist Annie Sprinkle in a droll turn as God, and the highly sellable concept of a politically correct smut film will likely allow this to make a mark in specialized settings."
