 Ahhite October 18, 2008
I just didn't care for the movie itself. Never had seen it before, just a cheap movie with an all-star cast. It was ok. Thanks for the speedy delivery...
Bully September 23, 2008
As many other reviewers have suggested, this film is not for the faint of heart. One might go as far as to say it isn't really for the strong of heart, either. The ovie's protrayal of teenage angst gone horribly wrong is brutal, frank, frightening, and unsettling.
This film centers around a real-life situation where one boy bullied another for years while proclaiming to be his friend. The bully's parents seem to be totally out of touch with their son. In fact all the parents in this film are depicted as out of touch, whether by choice or because their kids live completely outside of parental authority is not really clear, but the parents definitely have no clue what is happening in their kids' lives.
So to combat the bullying, the victim's girlfriend conceives a plot to kill the perpetrator. How this plot unfolds gives insight into how shallow kids think. The girl at least decided not to use her mom's handgun because it would be too easy for investigators to figure out what happened, but the final choice on how to kill is equally weak and shallow. But they go through with the murder without first having thought of any kind of alibi. Then after the killing the kids all begin to talk with associates who were not part of the conspiracy.
The film iteslf is strong during the build-up, the plotting, and during the murder. It is very weak in the aftermath. It show police detectives arriving at one of the kids' houses, but after that we just see the group in prison uniforms in a courtroom. Nothing is done to set up the trial or even the indictments. Perhaps if the film hadn't wasted time on the sex and drug scenes it would have had more time for more pertinent story lines.
I can't really recommend this film to anyone. Maybe it's just me, but this was way too disturbing to really get a sense of enjoyment from it.

I recieved the movie in a timely manner and it was in the same condition the seller described it to be. I really enjoyed this movie as well and am now currently writing the inmate from this movie. I appreciate being able to find someone that was honest with their products. Thanks!
Very Brilliant film March 26, 2008
Bully is clearly one of the most brilliant films I have ever seen and I see everything/ Larry Clark has made a movie that shocks you but keeps your attention the whole time. Nick Stahl and Brad Renfro play excllent lead roles as does Bijou Phillps and Rachel Miner. The film has a lot of sex, nudity and a very violent scene. But it's worth it. When you see this film make sure you see the DVD.
 Horrible Waste Of Time January 31, 2008

This movie is terrible. The only person who was half way decent in the movie was Marty and that's because he didn't talk all that much. Every other character was just plain annoying. Don't waste your time on this movie unless you want to see Brad Renfro doing a pretty good job in certain scenes. Otherwise... what a terrible movie. I don't know how anyone could give this movie a good review. Do yourself a favor, see Alpha Dog instead. That's a similar, but much better movie than Bully.
