If there was ever a time to watch this movie, it's now. The world is full of bullies. It's up to us to find a way to stand up to them.

This movie should be required viewing in every school system across America. I loved the positive message and hope that enough teachers and parents take the time to watch with their students and children.

Watch and discuss. That's your homework during the pandemic!

I found out about this movie when the writer and executive producer, Marilyn Anderson, posted about the movie in a film industry Facebook group I am also a member of. I knew my son would enjoy it because of the type of film it was regarded to be similar in style to, but I thought I would be groaning silently to myself as I have with other movies he has watched.

This was further from the truth. Not only was my son laughing out loud, my husband and I found ourselves genuinely laughing along with him. The actors were great in line delivery without over acting to make the movie cheesy. This is the type of movie we would pay to see in movie theaters.

My son has already watched this two more times today since our first viewing last night and as we have 5 more days of rental (Thanks, Amazon!) we will be sure to see it at least a dozen more times this week. Needless to say, when the DVD comes out, we will be purchasing a copy. I highly recommend this to everyone, whether you have kids or not.

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.

I have to say: this film really surprised me. Not sure why I even decided to watch it. And the FILM DELIVERS! I really love 'message' pictures that deliver without pounding the pulpit, and I love them even more when they get their message across with humor!

Cleverly written; the story moves along without a hitch; the basic plot line is incredibly funny; the casting was really perfect; the performances are well done; kids will 'get' the jokes; plenty of humor for adults too.

It's a pretty perfect little Indie flick. And if you're looking for family fair, this is an amazing candidate.

This is quite possibly one of the top ten worst movies I have ever seen. The acting, especially by the dad, is absolutely horrific. But my 7 & 11 year old thought it was good (not great). My wife and I cringed so many times that when I started counting after 30 minutes, I lost track by the end of the movie. I cannot believe the high reviews which is why we watched it in the first place. A very LOW budget film. The plot is bad. The acting is bad. The directing is bad. It really is bad. The message in the end, however, is good. And while the pieces fall together, I will add that my youngest, who laughs when she farts said she thought it was good.
