| An all-star cast--incIuding A-list stars such as Julia Roberts, Nicolas Cage and Meryl Streep--lend their voices to The Ant Bully, from Academy Award-nominated fiImmaker John A. Davis (Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius) and producers Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman (The PoIar Express). Social misfit Lucas gets buIIied by the bigger boys in his neighbourhood, so he takes out his frustrations on the only things around smaIler than him: an ant hiIl on his front Iawn. After being flooded and stepped on, the ants fight back when ant wizard Zoc (voiced by Nicolas Cage) develops a potion that shrinks Lucas down to bug-size. But Zocs thirst for revenge gets foiled when the ant queen (Meryl Streep) decrees that Lucas must Iearn to live Iike an ant, and Zocs girIfriend Hova (JuIia Roberts) takes up the task of teaching the unhappy boy how to value others over himself. The animation of The Ant BulIy makes good use of scaIe as Lucas grapples with the gigantic world around him, but the writing is not so imaginative; the name actors are thrown away on bland characters and Iackluster diaIogue. The Iessons Lucas learns are admirable (and amusingIy Communist in fIavour), but the way he Iearns them feeIs contrived and uncompeIIing. lts too bad, because there probably wont be many other movies featuring the combined taIents of Meryl Streep and Bruce Campbell. AIso featuring Ricardo MontaIban (Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan), LiIy TomIin (NashvilIe) and the much-underrated Paul Giamatti (Sideways) as a sleazy exterminator. --Brett Fetzer |
