Bully: The Movie - Redux

Back in May I was finally able to see Bully: The Movie. I did screen it before I taught my Ed Psych class on the topic. However, none of my students had seen the movie, so we weren't able to discuss it. 

It was OK (one thumb up). Any tool that helps raise awareness is positive, although it could have been a bit more effective than it was. 

I wouldn't recommend it for young children due to it's "R" rating, which is primarily due to offensive language. 

Bottom Line: It encourages parents, teachers, and young people to notice and stand up to bullying. It encourages targets to fight back. 

It seemed a bit surface to me - I would have liked a bit more depth (sounds like I'm evaluating a student's research paper!)

I will go into more detail in a future post.
