'Ant Bully' is another cute animated film with ants. Many might compare it to Dreamworks's 'Antz' and if I'm told to pick one, then 'Ant Bully' is the better one. Of course the story isn't anything new per se but... Full review

The Ant Bully was alright. It is as good as A Bug's Life but not as good as Antz. So if you liked A Bug's Life, you would probably like this movie too.... Full review

It's imaginative and amusing with its engaging characters....Bugs brought to insect animation, the humans are all visually plain and cinematically drab as well....Honey I Shrunk The Kids meets Antz in The Ant Bully, a colourful, family-friendly animated comedy about using our differences for positive ends.....The voice talents of Nicolas Cage and Julia Roberts ensure there is ant-charisma....though the ants themselves are visually the least interesting..... ...

Instead of the retro stylings of Nickle's original drawings, the film version of "The Ant Bully" settles for a prefab aesthetic of no satiric or straightforward distinction.
It lacks a sharp look and satisfyingly fleshed-out story and compensates with one numbing round of insect- or human-based peril after another.

Modest though it is, The Ant Bully has pace and some visual interest, not to mention a superior cast whose voice work lends character to the ants and other bugs, as well as the humans who inhabit little Lucas' world.
Review by Andrew L. Urban: The simple pleasures of a bedtime story are filtered through the hands of animators in The Ant Bully, a story with a message about the ugliness of bullying.

And the animation, though better at ants than humans, looks a little basic most of the time.
I also really liked the way Davis comes up with an air force to battle the exterminator portrayed perfectly by Paul Giamatti.

Great animation and memorable characters.
The main ant characters, are actually rather deep for a film with a young demographic.
EI's Eric Lurio also liked this film.
