Member Rating:  
Julia Cole (Diane Salinger) is more than a little upset about turning 40. She's depressed about growing older, distressed at the lack of attention from her workaholic husband Charles (John Calvin), and bored with being a stay-at-home wife and mother. On her birthday, she finds a bottle of enchanted soap bubbles. Blowing them transports her to moments of happiness from earlier times in her life. Soon, she not only regains her youthful vigor, she cannot even remember how old she is. She changes her appearance, her personality is transformed from reclusive to outgoing, and her values change from strict to permissive. Eventually, she realizes that happiness is not age-dependent. George Clooney and Wallace Shawn are the biggest names in this low-budget, independently produced romantic comedy, also known as The Magic Bubble, directed by Deborah Taper Ringel and Alfredo Ringel. ~ Michael Betzold, Rovi

I think this was a cute movie, it is a good family movie. I also think it is a make you feel good kind of movie, that makes you think about your own age and how you act. I liked the movie, but I know it is one my husband wouldn't be to intrested in watching.

This was an "ok" movie, not one I would highly recommend. Giving George Clooney top billing on this in misleading as he is not really a main character and doesn't appear that often. The plot was so-so and the acting about the same. If you are after this to see something quality with George, don't bother. If you want some non riveting fluff this is ok.

I'm sorry but this is the lamest cheapest made movie I have ever seen! You can even see the boom microphone in the seen where George Clooney and that other lady is talking after the baseball game. Poor George surely he must be embarrassed over having done this movie. lol this movie was the pits!!
