The Ant Bully Reviews

external linkThe Ant Bully is representative of a new, cynical mindset that has arisen amongst animated film distributors. Call it the Field of Dreams mentality: if you make it, they will come. Why bother with wit, intelligence, and emotion when children will be equally entertained by pretty images, colorful action, and the obligatory poop joke? (In this instance, it occurs when poor Lucas is getting his first taste of ant food.) It's depressing to see how far animated films have fallen in such a short time... [read review] 2/4
--James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
external linkANT BULLY plays like a bland version of Deepak Chopra, without the hypnotically effective speaking voice, or the seductive sense of conviction. It’s there to teach as much as to entertain, Aside from the seemingly inevitable tie-ins that kids' films are prone to, the wonder of Jelly Bellys, or in ant lore, "sweet rocks", are thoroughly explored, there are some truly noble aspirations at work here. Adults may not be enthralled, but kids might learn something, and kudos for that. [read review] 3/5
--Andrea Chase (Killer Movie Reviews)
external link...is worth a couple of chuckles. An ant swears and crosses it"s heart. An ant"s heart is on the back part of their body. "You're supposed to cross your heart, not your butt." Lucas tells her. Most of the movie, however, never creates enough concern for the ants for the audience to care about. I mean, these are just insects after all. [read review] 2.5/4
--Eric Nash (TheMovieBuffs.com)
external linkI took my 4-year-old son to this and he was completely mesmerized by it. The story was fast-paced and funny, so we were both entertained. It's a fun movie for the whole family. [read review] 7/10
