I know it was fake but watching that kid eat worms made my stomach turn! Otherwise, this was a cute movie for pre-adolescent boys.
Adam Hicks, Alexander Gould, Austin Rogers
During the first day of his new school year, a fifth grade boy squares off against a bully and winds up accepting a dare that could change the balance of power within the class.

Critic Reviews
I hope life doesn't imitate art in the other fun movie opening this week, an adaptation of Thomas Rockwell's gross-out 1972 kids' classic How to Eat Fried Worms. full review
If it grows more genial as it pokes along, it still feels like a lesser Nickelodeon special, with adults who are shrill cartoons and kids who are one-note character tics. full review
