'Bully' demands attention for the way in which it forces us to watch and digest a dark slice of American society. American beauty this ain't.

Attention must be paid, because this story of middle-class suburban teens who murder one of their own is all true.

Neither killers nor victim are drawn from life, just from lurid teen-exploitation pictures past.

An extremely disturbing tale of escalating peer pressure.

Clark is not a moralist, which is good, but he is not much of a dramatist either. You get the impression that the fascination with youth in his movies, just like in his photos, provides an excuse for voyeurism.

Much too concerned with flashing nude scenes of its barely legal cast to make a point or unfold a story.

Closer to teen pornography than to teen tragedy.

A bit long and repetitive.

Clark's probing camera leers, but it also reflects truth, providing visions of a hard reality most of us would be unable to comprehend and unwilling to face.

Exposes us to the true horror of what's going on in these kids' lives.

The moral wasteland of suburban youth has been examined, earlier and better, in The River's Edge. Clark's leering leads nowhere: In Bully, he has nothing new to say, and, in the end, no real point to make.

...an exploitation teen movie in the pejorative sense of the word.
