Hilarious premise, non-stop laughs
I'll admit, this isn't the kind of movie I normally watch, but I ended up really enjoying it. It takes on the subject of bullying without being preachy. I feel like the film makers really added a fresh perspective, and the final product is top tier. This really is one the whole family can enjoy. Kids will get the jokes, and there's enough humor in there with a wink and a nudge that the grown- ups will enjoy, too. The premise of the movie itself is hilarious, and the writing never fails to deliver the laughs. And smart casting choices meant that the actors can actually pull off the punch lines! Perfect for a rainy evening in with the whole family.
Treat yourself to some unexpected fun
I was excited to check this film out because you don't often see family movies coming out of the independent film world. The story is clever and endearing and the production value is great. You'll be surprised how quickly you get wrapped up in the world of the crazy yet relatable little town (key being that all towns are crazy to some degree). While family films aren't my normal viewing practice there's nothing wrong with giving the thriller/drama/horror genres a break for one night while you enjoy some good family fun. I think you'll be surprised how good of a time you'll have.
Everyone should watch this movie!
How To Beat A Bully hilarious and great for all ages! The writing is witty and extremely well done. The actors brought the lines to life and had great comedic timing. Although bullying can be a serious subject, this movie brings light to the situation while also making a huge impact. It presents a great message that comedy and humor can be found in any and all situations. I highly recommend this movie. It is especially great for the younger generation. The jokes are not limited to one specific age group and it's a good family movie. I watched this with my college roommates who thought it was extremely funny, relatable and insightful. I give this movie and 10/10. Well done!
Is it awful, no...
"How To Beat A Bully" is a new film that kids from about 7 to 12 will probably enjoy. It has very broad humor and there are lots of scatological references in the final 15 minutes of the film. I can picture in my mind kids rolling in laughter because of the rude jokes and silly situations. As for everyone else, the film is problematic. The acting and writing are such that most adults simply will turn off their brains or leave the room to let the kids enjoy it without them. As for younger kids, they probably won't understand much of the plot...though they, too, will probably love all the poop jokes near the end. When the film begins, Cory and his family are packing up and moving from New Jersey to California. Not surprisingly Cory is not excited about the move but it becomes worse when he begins at a new school...where are plenty of bullies who are more than ready to make his life miserable. His father insists that Cory can talk his way out of any bully problems by using his words and Cory takes him literally. He soon orchestrates events to that the kids think Cory's father works for the mob. Soon, the kids' parents also begin believing the guy is a mobster. So, although Joe is only an insurance salesman, folks thing that he's an enforcer and 'insurance' is what folks have to pay in order to stay healthy! Eventually, however, this causes serious problems when a group of real mobsters think Joe is one of them...and by the end of the film things get very, very serious...seriously deadly. So it's up to Cory and his friends to save the day...presumably because calling the police would have been too difficult. As I said already, the film has very broad humor and will not appeal to most adults. It clearly is thinking about things that kids would like however....rude, nasty jokes about farting, defecating and the like! If you don't mind your kids watching stuff like this, I'm pretty sure they'll enjoy it. For anyone else, however, if could be a very, very long movie. By the way, like many new movies, the reviews that first are posted on IMDb are curious. I wouldn't even talk that glowingly about most Disney films...so why all the 10s?
Funny and wonderful movie!
This movie was really well done! It's timely and great! Very important subject matter!
