We've seen plenty of CGI-animated films that involve talking ants (Antz, A Bug's Life). The Ant Bully is the most recent one, released back in 2006, and I have to say that it's the weakest of them all. To to say that it's incredibly bad, but it's still pretty mediocre. The good things about this film are the ants themselves: I found myself admiring their personalities and even their appearances. The animation looks good in some corners, and the orchestral score sounds great, even if it isn't very memorable. I especially like the lack of pop culture references that are typically found in today's CGI-animated films. Unfortunately, these things aren't enough to save the film. The story is predictable (even kids will probably figure out how it all ends), the human supporting characters are dull, the main character (the kid) is an especially unbelievable bore, and the jokes are very VERY stale. Like I said, it's not a terrible film, but it's not a good one either. This one is just below mediocre.
