Bully

Bully was a movie about that of its namesake, Bully.  The movie opens with the story of a boy who killed himself because of bullying and the impact that has had on his family. It talks about his family's fight to end bullying and their campaign to end it. Next it move to a boy, Tyler, who the movie focuses on a lot later. He lives in a small town and has problems with the aforementioned subject. He get picked on on a daily basis, and honestly has no friends in his school. After that, we move to a girl of about nine or ten who is just about to get out of prison and released back into the custody of her mother. She, a couple years prior,m had brought a gun on to a school bus t try to scare some kids that were bothering her. After that it goes back to Tyler and shows a disturbing scene where he is picked on on the buss by some kids. Second to last they talk to a kid whose best friend killed himself. Finally, it comes back to a group of people who are hold a kind of pep rally to help support family who have lost a loved one.

I thought that Bully was a decent movie that deserved all the attention that it got. I was able to connect with a lot of the stories. But first off I did observe that none of the kids in this movie lived in an urban setting where there were not a lot of people. I think that this is the problem that there is not a wide variety of people living in these arias so it makes that there is not as much variety so anyone just a little out of the norm will be picked on it’s inevitable. But I also have to say that a lot of these kids could have handed this a lot better. I honestly think Kelbie handled it the best out of all of them. But some of the kids I felt were just not doing the best they could to stop it.

I was able to relate to a lot of the stories, I used to live in a small town, baily, until a year ago when I moved down here in to Litton. But in 6th grade I had real issues. I had switched school districts that year so I was very new to the school. There was this one time that a kid smashed my face into a desk. Another my trumpet was thrown around the buss by someone who I had previously thought to be my friend. It was not a good year. But in 7th grade I started to draw less attention to myself and honestly learn the bearer of what would get me left alone. This may sound bad like I abandoned who I was I did not I just stopped screaming it.

In conclusion I was able to relate to Bully heavily and over all I thought it was good. The movie got its message across got its message across very well. It could have been more factual but over all it did what it was meant to.
