Review of Mr. Woodcock

Mr. Woodcock (2007)
9/10
I Was Actually Laughing!
13 July 2009
Believe it or not, I actually enjoyed this film. This is not the best comedy ever, but it succeeds at what it does best: make the audience laugh(me). I see why people hated this, but I found the movie to be clever especially with the talented duo of Seann William Scott and Billy Bob Thornton.

This film is about an evil gym teacher who makes his students lives miserable especially John Farley. Many years later Farley and Mr. Woodcock meet again because Woodcock is dating Farley's mother. It's up to Farley to stop this from happening.

The actors did a credible job. Billy Bob Thornton is probably the best. He was the one who cracked me up the most. Scott is pretty funny, not as funny as his American Pie films.

People compare this movie to Meet the Parents. That movie is much better because it's in another category of its own. This movie is just for guilty pleasure. I rate this film 9/10.
