Here Comes the American Dream

Such an image was created in the first ten minutes of the film. Being late, lying, having no sense of responsibility, job burnout, and a little bit of workplace sexual harassment. So when the teachers' conference he made a lot of talk about the principal's reduction of funds, it was indeed more like a vent of personal anger.
Then the image suddenly changed. A man who even found a school bus guard to find an excuse to pass on to others actually worked part-time to make money for the moment of irritation. A person who was deducted a day off and had to earn it by reading the newspaper in class can actually donate all the extra money earned by spinning around for 24 hours. I know that this kind of comedy is all about trying to suppress, so as to increase the contrast. But this change is somewhat blunt. Fortunately, there is a foreshadowing of the best teacher 10 years ago, which makes you deceive yourself and think that this is his nature. However, how to change from the best to the laziest, and why suddenly change from the laziest to the best, nothing has been explained, the audience please make up your mind.
Malia raised her hand in class and was ignored, because theoretically it was vacation time. But Niko asked for extracurricular tutoring, but was kindly agreed. Yes, I know it is to lead to fighting games.
Then a biology teacher who had practiced wrestling for several weeks in college defeated the world champion step by step.
But this is actually a cover, because the end of the film is not after Voss's anger at Dietrich's victory, but when a group of foreign workers obtain U.S. citizenship. Yes, this film promotes the American Dream. Malia's father who opened a restaurant pursued the American dream, and the workers pursued the American dream. In fact, what Voss finally realized was also the American dream. Take a look at the biggest fight, Dietrich's 6 pack abs and Voss' big belly. All this can win, this is the most advanced spring and autumn dream.

Highlights:
1. Kevin James started his body preparation 14 months before the filming started, and cut off 70~80 pounds of weight.
2. The starring Kevin James and Gary Valentine, who played his brother in the film, are brothers in reality.
