Apatow’s inspiration for “The Bubble” came from the early days of lockdown, when sports teams and films like “Jurassic World: Dominion” created enclosed spaces (i.e., bubbles) in order to continue bringing entertainment to the masses (or perhaps more accurately — as “The Bubble” touches on — to allow the rich to continue to become richer). In the movie, a group of actors heads to a fancy British hotel in the countryside to film “Cliff Beasts 6,” the latest movie in a very silly fake franchise, which is also a clear riff on the “Jurassic World” films.

These fake “Cliff Beasts” cast members — played by Karen Gillan, Leslie Mann, Iris Apatow, David Duchovny, Keegan-Michael Key, Pedro Pascal, and Guz Khan — are all ridiculous individuals that play up typical actor stereotypes to comedic effect. Key, for example, started a health-centered cult during his pandemic downtime, while Duchovny’s character is one of those actors who always want to “tweak” the script because he thinks he knows best. In a nod to our times, the sixth “Cliff Beasts” movie also adds TikTok star Krystal Kris (Iris Apatow) to the production, which also means your eyeballs will see more than one TikTok-esque dance during the film.

The good news is the “Cliff Beasts” actors keep the comedy coming, none more so than Pascal, who was the funniest of the bunch. (Did we know Pascal was so funny? I didn’t before “The Bubble,” and gaining this knowledge alone made the film worth a watch.)
