"Bubble & Squeak" captivates audiences at Sundance Film Festival with its quirky premise about a couple smuggling cabbages in a fictional country where cabbages are banned. Directed by Evan Twohy, the film features absurdist humor and deadpan performances. However, while it starts strong with a humorous take on the significance of cabbages—with a backstory of a war associated with their ban—the film struggles to sustain the comedic depth and direction throughout, leaving viewers to wonder about its trajectory after the initial setup.
The premise of "Bubble & Squeak"—a couple apprehended for smuggling cabbages—quickly becomes a joke that lacks substance as the film progresses.
Directorial debut of Evan Twohy, it utilizes absurdist humor, drawing audiences in with its quirky premise, yet struggles to maintain momentum post-introduction.
