Ira Heffler Indie films tend to be either high concept or character driven with lots of angst. It's so refreshing to see this indie film – a family comedy. And it's well executed.It's even more refreshing to see the serious subject of bullying tackled in a humorous yet satisfying way. The story line is clever… and the whole movie works.It's well shot and well acted. The parents do a terrific job, and the kids are infectious.How to Beat a Bully is a well-made movie that tackles a very real social problem… that has a good moral… and that's enjoyable and fun to watch!

backto1-2 This movie was very enjoyable to watch. The acting was very good. This movie should be watched by the whole family. It's a wonderful family movie that parents and their kids can watch together. I liked how the film has an underlying theme about bullying where the bullied kid used friendship to win over his bullies and became friends. This was a fun movie that my nephew & niece watched over & over again. The writing was clever and fun. For a indie film, I thought the movie was well done. The kid who played the lead Cory did a great job and his parents did a great job as well. I liked how the kids took matters into their own hands and saved Cory's father from the mobsters. It showed how kids can be friends. i thought it was very funny that the local mobsters and there were only 3 of them mistook the father, Joe to be a henchman from another mob gang from the East coast when he was actually an insurance salesman. The father & mother were positive role models in the way they showed their son how to make friends w/bullies in his class.

artistgp 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.

Bobby Christopher The acting was bad and the lines were like that of kids (babies') cartoon (maybe worse). It was compared to "home alone" and the "sopranos" but doesn't really deserve to be mentioned with those movies. The plot seemed interesting and the film could have been better but the delivery was awful. That's what spoiled the film for me. It does touch on the theme of anti-bullying (as suggested) but that's about it. I don't think this film should be marketed to anyone over the age of 6 or 7. I was mislead into watching the film (thinking it would be good) because the reviews and the ratings. I would suggest ignoring them for this title. If you do want to watch this movie, don't go in with any expectations.
