"School for Scoundrels" is a confusing comedy doesn't decide where it wants to be, a dark comedy or a romantic comedy. Jon Hedar is typecast as a loser. The same loser he played in "Napoleon Dynamitic," which is why he ended up in this movie. Hedar enrolled in this school for losers. This film should be called "School for Losers," not "School for Scoundrels," but never mind. Billy Bob Thrornton plays a teacher who ends up seducing Jon's girlfriend. There are some good moments, but the film doesn't add up anything.
Not cinematic brilliance, but I laughed out loud a lot. The third act fizzles a bit, but not as mush as you would expect. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
