Product Description
SPANNING OVER ONE THOUSAND YEARS, & THREE PARALLEL STORIES, THIS IS A STORY OF LOVE, DEATH, SPIRITUALITY & FRAGILITY OF OUR EXISTENCE IN THIS WORLD.
Amazon.com
An all-star cast--including such A-list stars as Julia Roberts, Nicolas Cage, and Meryl Streep--lend their voices to The Ant Bully. Social misfit Lucas gets bullied by the bigger boys in his neighborhood, so he takes out his frustrations on the only things around smaller than him: An ant hill on his front lawn. After being flooded and stepped on, the ants fight back when ant wizard Zoc (Cage, National Treasure) develops a potion that shrinks Lucas down to bug-size. But Zoc's thirst for revenge gets foiled when the beatific ant queen (Streep, The Devil Wears Prada) decrees that Lucas must learn to live like an ant, and Zoc's girlfriend Hova (Roberts, Runaway Bride) takes up the task of teaching the unhappy boy how to value others over himself. The animation of The Ant Bully makes good use of scale as Lucas grapples with the gigantic world around him, but the writing is not so imaginative; the name actors are thrown away on bland characters and lackluster dialogue. The lessons Lucas learns are admirable (and amusingly Communist in flavor), but the way he learns them feels contrived and uncompelling. It's too bad, because there probably won't be many other movies featuring the combined talents of Meryl Streep and Bruce Campbell (Army of Darkness). Also featuring Ricardo Montalban (Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan), Lily Tomlin (Nashville), and Paul Giamatti (Sideways) as a sleazy exterminator. --Bret Fetzer

 Not a boys movie November 17, 2009

First, the premise of this film is essentially that what boys need is a good dose of feminism to teach them how to be men. Second, the scene in which Julia Roberts' character stings the pest control man on the [...] was totally inappropriate for children. In fact, it was just downright inappropriate for anyone. But it set the tone for this movie more than any other scene. If you have boys, get them something else.

I ordered this video for my grandson's birthday back in Aug. I received the wrong video. It was an adult video. I have e-mailed the company twice since I returned the wrong video and have not heard a word from them.
