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.

Closer to teen pornography than to teen tragedy.

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.
Peter Howell, Toronto Star
Rotten
Neither killers nor victim are drawn from life, just from lurid teen-exploitation pictures past.
Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail

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