... View MoreExcellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
... View MoreA pack of naïve teenagers conspire to murder a mutual friend, whose aggressive demeanor has proved too much. The crazy thing about this film is that it actually got a 7.0 out of 10 here in IMDb and don't get me wrong if you liked this movie that's fine i'm just stating my opinion here which is this. This film is pure garbage it was boring and full with nude sex scenes that are stupid, the main characters were dumb especially Nick Stahl who gave a pretty bad performance, the dialogue was also pretty bad and the actors acted like they were stoned or something. Also the whole plan with them trying to kill Bobby Kent seemed really dumb too this is a film that took only 23 days to get made and it definitely seems like it but like i said if you thought that this was a great movie that's alright but for me this was just a huge porn parody with bad acting and an awful script and in the end "Bully" is just an unnecessary movie (1/10)
... View MoreVery disturbing all up. More disturbing than the murder itself, or the activities of the bully, was my knowledge that they were going to get caught for the murder well before the point in the storyline when they did it.How foolish and clumsy can you get? The 'hit-man' guy was also foolish to even get involved. He should have sensed that these fools were just that, fools, and had none to do with any of it!So frustrating to see such foolishness. That was the disturbing part. Well crafted tension all the way through, some documentary like moments. Well placed music, diegetic and not.Only found out it was a true story after the fact. Worth a watch to learn how not to do a murder !!
... View MoreLarry Clark and his controversial flicks. If you have seen one of his flicks you know what you will get. A lot of blah blah, teenagers having sex and go skating. Not that in, again, a controversial flick. This is the flick people liked the most coming from his hand because it is based on the murder of Bobby Kent. Two things make it controversial. Teens having sex, do smoke dope and are just hanging around. People will be offended by the nudity of the teens but Larry knew the law, they are all above 18. But they are all unknown 'artists' The second thing that makes it hard to watch is the fact that friends can influence each other to murder a good friend. That it all happened in real life makes it more weird. Just watch they way Bobby was killed...it's not for the easy offended. It's a rather difficult flick to watch due a lot of senseless conversations and the way they are talking to kill their best friend. It isn't filmed like a big production, it's Larry Clarck so shocking for some it will be.Gore 0,5/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 2/5 Story 4/5 Comedy 0/5
... View MoreThe movie kept my attention but I wasn't sure about the gay aspect of it and why that was important. Overall, I liked the film. I like the use of some of violent scenes where they did not show it. The scene where they brought the bat down in front of the car was pretty graphic by imagination only. I like that. The use of sex is pretty accurate of that culture and is the same location and energy of most high school spring break trips... there, it's just all year like that. I don't think we needed to see all of the full frontal, but I don't think it took away from the film. The hot wax and things like that were things that were mimic'd in my high school because of this movie. We used to joke about some of these things, but would also do it to be cool. Ah, the ignorance of our youth.
