LOVED IT *****(FIVE STARS) |

This is an
absolute must see for gay parents and their children. Not
only is this film fun and truly enjoyable its also a
moralistic journey that teaches honesty, and the importance
of being fair. |

I was instantly taken back to when I was in elementary
school and remembered what it was like to be the new kid in
school and how you believed the retarded and weird stories
the other kids told. Like how if the bully punches you with
his death ring you will die in the eighth grade. Looking
back now we as adults realize that those preposterous
stories are so ridiculous and yet we were once there and we
totally fell for those stories if we were not the ones
telling them in the first place. |

I have to admit that my heart
went out to all these kids, the casting of these children
was well thought out and wonderfully planned for they are
all extremely diverse and yet intricately unique and special
in their own way. I was most impressed with the children's
character development for you were capable of seeing the
heart of each character, even the bully. Honestly I have to
admit my favorite kid was the awkwardly tall girl Erika (Hallie
Kate Eisenberg remember she was the cute and
adorable little girl from the Pepsi commercials that talked
like ray Charles and sang with Aretha Franklin, well that
little girl is she is growing up and acting in movies) They
even touched on the fact that usually the kids that are
picked on tend to pick on other kids, and thus turning into
bully's. This film also showed the special ways that kids
are able to make friends, and how thin that line of loyalty
is. |

This film was loosely based on
the children's book with the same name, and as the title
suggests, this movie is about eating worms. The kids play a
prank on the new kid and put worms in his thermos. When all
the kids make fun of him he jokes and says of course I eat
worms. When push comes to shove they make a bet that he
cannot eat 10 of them. To be honest a few of the worm
scenes were kinda gross and made you squirm in your seat.
However over all they were fun and clever ways of how to
make a unique worm meal.

I really loved this movie I
thought it was incredible the whole way through from the
really cool Mom (Kimberly
Williams who was first well known from playing
Annie Banks in
Father of the Bride) to
my favorite scene where they tried to help Billy (Luke
Benward) cool down his mouth for he just ate a
jalapeņo worm and one of the other crazy kids quickly gets
the water hose to cool him off and its hilarious. |

You will love this movie, it
touches both on the awkwardness of being a child and the
awkwardness of being parents. Yet it really pushes the good
and ethical morals of being honest and fair. |

 How
to Eat Fried Worms
Comedy, Kids/Family and Adaptation. Based on the popular
Thomas Rockwell book, this film tells the story of a boy
whose bravado lands him in a difficult predicament.
11-year-old Billy inadvertently challenges the school bully
on his first day at a new school. In order to save face and
earn the respect of his new classmates, Billy agrees to a
bet that calls for him to eat 10 worms in one day. As the
pressure mounts, Billy must summon all his strength to keep
his younger brother from blabbing, his weak stomach from
betraying him, and his big mouth from getting him in even
more trouble. 83 minutes. MPAA Rating: PG (for mild bullying
and some crude humor). |
