    This is probably the most terrible thing I've ever seen.

    Like how the crap is this rated 7.8 OUT OF 10!? When ever you get bullied via. text, email, etc. you DON'T write back! I have learned that when ever you get bullied via. email or text you just block their E-mail address and/or phone number. Also, comic sans, I can't make that up! Acting is off the charts in-terms of bad, you SHOULD call the police when you find a gun lying somewhere and you can see the shadows of the camera men. Cliché kicking over sandcastle bullying, I can see why you would want to stop bullying but... By making an terrifically dull move is not the way to go about it. So my final rating for this terrible piece of garbage is a -3 out of 10.

    Genius Work of Art

    One of the most beautiful and artistic films of all time. Better than "The Godfather" in every way. Makes "Lawrence of Arabia" look like "Birdemic". At the end, I cried through the ending credits because of the beauty of the ending. The film's acting makes Daniel-Day Lewis' work seem pathetic. The realism packed into the performance of the complex character Butch the Bully really affects the audience emotionally. This movie makes me hate Scorsese, "Goodfellas", more like "Badfellas"! "Taxi Driver", more like "BADxi Driver"! Don't get me started on "Raging Bull"...

    The film ranks up with films like "Citizen Kane" and "Casablanca" in its excellence! Federico Fellini and Ingmar Bergman must be crying that they didn't accomplish a collaboration to make this film. "The Seventh Seal" is so bad compared to this, I mean where were the seals! I'm serious, that movie is really bad. But "Cool Cat"!

    I say that this film should be in the IMDb top TEN films of all time! Let alone the 250 greatest! "The Shawshank Redemption" at #1, really? I used to love that movie, but after witnessing "Cool Cat"? I'd rather be cursed into an eternal sleep then ever MENTION that film again

    And that was my totally honest review of "Cool Cat", no trolls in sight!

    Terrible, Not Good Advice for Bullying

    This film is an abomination. There is no movie making know-how - it's a badly made home-made movie. Apart from the awful acting, lack of discernible plot, terrible lighting, and clichéd dialogue, it's got terrible advice on bullying.

    I advise any parents whose children are being bullied to read Sticks and Stones by Emily Bazelon (this isn't a book to read with your children, it's quite heavy) rather than get their kids to watch this trite garbage, which is frankly a dangerous approach to handling bullying!

    A good review by "I Hate Everything" among others on YouTube is under heavy attack by the creator of this film, despite having kept within Fair Use licensing... so much for free speech and the right to criticize. There is currently a petition on change.org if you'd like to support IHE.

    Absolutely Brilliant!

    As a child, I was bullied every step of the way. So I always looked up to Cool Cat for advice. I was thrilled to find out that Cool Cat was finally made into a movie! Cool Cat Saves the Kids sets a fantastic example for children and young adults on how to stand up to bullying -- with payback! Inspired by this movie, I decided to apply what I learned. However, I was promptly arrested. While it may not have worked in my case, I'm sure that this movie will help somebody stand up to bullying! That's why I'm leaving a good summary, but a bad score. Its life lessons are good in theory, but they don't always work, and they need to make that more clear.

    A Modern Masterpiece: The Best Film I Have Ever Seen Since Birdemic

    Cool Cat Saves The Kids is a symbolic masterpiece directed by Derek Savage that is not only satirical in the way it makes fun of the media and politics, but in the way in questions as how we humans live life and how society tells us to live life.

    Before I get into those details, I wanna talk about the special effects in this film. They are ASTONISHING, and it shocks me that Cool Cat Saves The Kids got snubbed by the Oscars for Best Special Effects. This film makes 2001 look like garbage, and the directing in this film makes Stanley Kubrick look like the worst director ever. You know what other film did that? Birdemic: Shock and Terror. Both of these films are masterpieces, but if I had to choose my favorite out of the 2, I would have to go with Cool Cat Saves The Kids. It is now my 10th favorite film of all time.

    Now, lets get into the symbolism: So you might be asking yourself, Why is Cool Cat Orange? Well, I can easily explain. Orange is a color. Orange is also a fruit, and its a very good fruit. You know what else is good? Good behavior. What behavior does Cool Cat have? He has good behavior. This cannot be a coincidence, since cool cat has good behavior in the film.

    Now, why is Butch The Bully fat? Well, fat means your wide. You wanna know who was wide? Hitler. Nuff said this cannot be a coincidence.

    Why does Erik Estrada suspect Butch The Bully to be a bully? Well look at it this way. What color of a shirt was Butchy wearing when he walks into the area? I don't know, its looks like dark purple/dark blue. Why rhymes with dark? Mark. Mark is that guy from the Room. The Room is the best movie of all time. What is the opposite of best? Worst. This is how Erik knew Butch was a bully.

    and finally, how come Vivica A. Fox isn't having a successful career after making Kill Bill.

    I actually can't answer that question.

    Well thanks for reading my review.

    • Trivia
      In 2015, numerous YouTubers posted negative reviews of this film. Derek Savage had almost all of them removed, claiming they violated copyright, though his announcement video contradicted that. The Youtubers fought back, and each review was put back up. Ironically, Savage bullied numerous people because he disagreed with their review of his anti-bullying film.
