Product Description After lucas nickel floods an ant colony with his watergun hes magically shrunked down to insect size & sentenced to hard labor in the ruins. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 09/30/2008 Starring: Voice Of Julia Roberts Voice Of Meryl Streep Run time: 89 minutes Rating: Pg
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

Amazing Hi Def Picture Quality and Sound. August 24, 2008 NT What a great family cartoon. This movie really shows off HD DVD's strengths. The Picture Quality and Audio Quality are phenomenal. This movie will keep you happy for many years to come.
The Ant Bully August 13, 2008 Alma B. Manning (Cary, NC) The Ant Bully is one of the best animated movies I have seen and I am an adult. The movie is very well done and I think everyone should see.
Disappointed July 15, 2008 X-Wonderbug (NE Illinois) I thought "Ant Bully" would be a lot like "Ants," but I was mistaken and disappointed in it. What I didn't like about it was the gratuitous rude and uncivil dialogue between the characters which I felt was in poor taste and a very poor example for kids. I would not show it to my grandkids, as they learn from movies and videos and I would not want them to emulate the attitudes expressed by the characters. There are already too much iresponsible and negative attitudes expressed on TV. I am amazed that Tom Hanks and the other Hollywood actors got involved in this cheap take off on "Ants." The insects did not even look like insects, but rather grotesque charactures that were unnatural. Made for a quick profit, not any redeeming value.
ant bully April 28, 2008 Wanda I. Guzman (bronx ny usa) The item arrived in good condition some scratches but able to view movie well i would buy from this seller in the future.
