My son loved it. My daughter didn't even want to be in the same room while it was playing because it was too gross. She and I did something else together. Parents, this move is painful to watch as an adult (i.e. no thinking required, gross and over acted, which is why fourth grade boys probably love it).

Its good for kids younger then 12. I took my 12 year old and he didnt like it. My 8 year old did. Its a movie thrown towards younger kids. Of course i didnt enjoy it all but i guess it would be good for younger kids.

I watched this movie with my 8 year old son. I'd read the book, so I knew the story. Since my son is very small for his age, he gets bullied on the playground by kids he doesn't know, and I knew he would really connect with the theme. I loved the ending. And I especially loved how real and natural the kids were in this movie -- like real kids. I'm sure we'll be watching this DVD a lot in the next few months. A winner!!

Sexual Content (Not an Issue): We briefly see animated Woody's bare bottom. A teacher says "bust of Nefertiti" and students laugh. Woody tells Billy to stop hitting his bike, "it's hurting my dilly dink." Violence (Not an Issue): We see an animated character start to fill up with blood and die, but it's played for laughs and very lightly. Language (Pause): Two child-based slang terms for male genitals ("dilly dink"). Social Behavior (Pause): Joe and his thugs have a condescending, bad attitude towards Billy and Erica. Seeing as this is a movie about consuming worms, crude humor is prevalent. Commercialism (Not an Issue): None. Drug/Alcohol/Tobacco (Not an Issue): None.

My 9-year old son was entertained, BUT I felt too much of the "entertainment" is at the expense of other characters...lots of teasing, name-calling, bullying, victimizing, etc. I almost wish we hadn't watched it, even though everyone "makes nice" in the end...Try "Hoot" (environmental message) or "Holes" (for older kids) instead.

Good fun. Good message.

My 5 yr old son enjoyed this movie. A few times he got a bit nervous and wanted to leave because he was anxious about what might happen. There is a "witch" in the movie that creates a bit of suspense. He thought it was disgusting to think about eating the worms and said something about wanting to throw-up like the main character goes on about but he got over it. I had to calm him down a couple of times by reminding him that the worms weren't real and neither was the witch. Overall, it was a mildly exciting movie, safe for my 5 yr old and I would suspect most. There was a great message about friendship and doing the right thing. Sort of a novelty these days.

This movie was okay. My biggest disappointment was that they completely changed the point of the book. The book really didn't have anything to do about bullying and the bet was made between 2 kids and they both had input. It was decided that the one kid would provide the worms, but the kid eating them got to choose how they would be fixed. In the movie, the "bully" not only provided the worms, but he had his gang make up the most vile concoctions they could think of, which left me thinking, "I wouldn't eat that even if it DIDN'T have a worm in it." I agree lots of kids will eat that up, but I'll warn you now, it is very revulting. The movie is fine, but it could have been much better if they hadn't felt like they had to change it around so that they could make a social statement.

They had to kill to many worms it Violent

this movie encludes some very brief sexual content and grusome images.

I like this movie!

not gross pretty good movie

The plot is dumb the acting is a discrace and its plain unintertaning the only reason i was able to get through it was cause i was forced to watch it.

surely loved this movie.it was well paced and just a pure masterpiece.

This movie is fun for everyone! It is funny, too! There is nothing wrong with this movie, and i recomend it for all kids ages 5+!

This movie is gross and if you have a quezzy stomach DON'T WATCH THIS IT IS GROSS

I loved this movie. It was basically about this kid named Billy who starts a new school and has no friends at that school. Some kids in the school, one day, put worms in Billy's lunch, so Billy laughs it off by saying that he eats worms all the the time. He ends up throwing one in Joe's face. So Joe makes a bet with Billy that Billy can't eat 1 worm. Billy says he can eat 10 worms so they end up having a bet that Billy can't eat 10 worms in 1 day. The loser has to come to school with worms in his pants. They have the bet that Saturday. You predict, will Billy eat the worms and make Joe come to school with worms in his pants?

This movie probably wanted to lure all fourth graders to the big screen instead of all other summer movies. There are a few references to privates including "sphincter", and the younger son was about to call his private part a d--k, but his playmate stopped him. After you get past all of that, it is an overall great movie for elementary school students, but don't expect to see a teenager there; if you do,it is very rare. Great movie!

I loved this movie. I loved Blake Garrett(Plug) more! This movie was awesome, although I would not recomend it for someone who throws up easily(like Billy). I recomend it for everyone else(especially girls who are boycazy, like me).

pretty good but gross! go on an empty stomach!!!plot ok

This is a funny movie that I quite enjoyed. I only reccomend it for tom boy and boys.

THIS WAS AN AWESOME MOVIE AND IT WASN'T SEXUALLY INAPROPRITE. I LOVED IT A LOT! I DON'T HAVE A FAVORITE PERSON CAUSE I LIKED THEM ALL BUT PLUG WAS REALLY HOT! SO WAS BILLY! LOVE UM! THE MOVIE WAS ONE OF THE BEST EVER AND THE BOOK IS GREAT TOO!
