I'll admit that one of my guilty pleasures is to watch Billy Bob Thornton yell profanities at people and the chance to see him do it to Napoleon Dynamite was a great opportunity. School of Scoundrels is about a NYC meter maid (Jon Heder) who suffers from low self esteem and ends ...( read more)

Nothing is more frustrating than watching Billy Bob totally waste his acting chops on a pile of crap like this. This flick has no idea what it wants to be. You can't get away with that unless you have some really great actors. Heder is not a poor man's Sandler. He isn't even a po...( read more)
Critic Reviews
It feels as if director Phillips was scrounging desperately for morsels with comic potential and came up empty-handed. full review
This time the pace is so weak that long periods go by without even the whiff of a joke. full review
Nice guys and creeps make it to the finish line, though I won't say how they place. But I will divulge this: The movie's a loser. full review
It achieves something previously thought impossible: It renders Billy Bob Thornton unfunny. full review
You may have seen the trailer for this movie. Ignore it. The trailer conveys nothing of how wonderfully funny the film really is. full review
Phillips is here to stay. And the whacked humor and sneaky substance of School for Scoundrels is another compelling reason why. full review
