About This Movie

So, 'Bullies' from 2018 has this raw intensity that really pulls you in. The story follows Park Young Ho, a transfer student who stands up against the school's top bullies.

The themes of resilience and the impact of bullying hit hard, almost uncomfortably so. It’s not just about fights; there's this undercurrent of camaraderie and the struggle for justice. There’s a few practical effects that feel grounded, adding to the authenticity of the school setting. It’s distinct in how it tackles a familiar story without feeling overly polished.
