About this movie

How to Eat Fried Worms tells the story of Billy (Luke Benward - "We Were Soldiers," "Because of Winn-Dixie"), an 11-year old who, on his first day at a new school, inadvertently challenges the town bully. To save face and earn the respect of his new classmates, Billy agrees to a bet -- whether he can eat 10 worms in 1 day -- that will determine his fate at the school. As the pressure mounts, he must summon heroic strength to keep his 5-year-old brother from blabbing, his weak stomach from betraying him, and his big mouth from getting him into more trouble than he's already in. Starring Golden Globe-nominee Tom Cavanaugh (TV's "Ed," "Bang Bang You're Dead"), Kimberly Williams-Paisley ("Father of the Bride I & II," "We Are Marshall"), James Rebhorn ("Scent of a Woman," "Baby Mama"), and Hallie Kate Eisenberg ("The Insider," "Bicentennial Man").

Ratings and reviews

The characters are idiots. The adults are useless. Humor is for stupid 12 year olds. Has some inappropriate parts that you may not want the kiddies to see. Film is for stupid 12 year olds and only stupid 12 year olds

We watched it in 4grade after we had read the book and ate lunch the book was totally different then the movie I was disgusted by the worm part but it was a litre funny😃

It looks like a great movie. If it were for free I would have jumped on the offer already. Plus anything with Luke Benward in it I'm ready to watch over and over again
