      Audience Member Just a typical disney snoozefest that gets exciting once in a blue moon Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Frances H Nice young adult film with great anti-bullying and pro-teamwork message. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/04/15 Full Review Audience Member It starts out with a promising idea of a bully being forced to team up with his tortured for a cookery contest, however given there good bully-bad bully progression of the storyline it gets bogged down with this and becomes quite dark after a while before retiring to its idealistic conclusion. It doesn't quite work with these two styles, but it's watchable at least. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member so, so and predictable... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Sweet story and premise with terrible acting, pacing and sloppy scene transitions. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Loved the message of the movie, and the music is amazing! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Nell Minow Movie Mom "Contest" more than makes up for some first-time-filmmaker shortcomings with its sincerity and unexpected strengths in the storyline and cinematography. Rated: B Dec 16, 2013 Full Review Emily Ashby Common Sense Media Strong anti-bullying tone outshines movie's low-budget feel. Rated: 3/5 Oct 8, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews
