This film can be described as a standard American evil comedy. The male protagonist Campbell played by Charlie Day is similar to the role in "Evil Boss." Bullies generally choose to swallow their anger. This time, it was a lot of effort to resolve the conflict with the tempered history teacher Strickland. Unexpectedly, the more the trouble was solved, the final fight became the focus of the local media. Campbell's problem solving experience in the film is a bit like Zhang San in the skit "Zhang San Qi Ren". Misunderstandings caused by various coincidences always make things develop in the opposite direction to expectations. Of course, as a standard feature of American vulgar comedy, there are a lot of drugs, foul language, and sexual cues in the film. Several supporting characters are also very funny. The football coach who is in arrears with IQ is the director of the children of addicts who want to eat "boy chicken". , A plump, sexy but feminine female teacher, a neurotic Indian campus security guard, in contrast, the male protagonist Campbell can be said to be the only normal person in the film. Black movie star Ace Cooper plays Strickland, a hot-tempered history teacher. I think Ace Cooper has a talent for comedy. Even his serious appearance makes people laugh. This is also the box office where he starred in "Xtreme Agent 2". Why? (It's really hard to associate him with the image of a cool lonely agent).
While the film is funny, it also satirizes the American public education system, which is increasingly indulgent to students. For example, the students in the film are absolutely lawless (of course a bit exaggerated). They use a lawn mower to push out the phallic pattern on the playground, and the principal’s car is shown as Easter eggs. Teachers They have become a vulnerable group being bullied. In the end, the cowardly Campbell exploded, and he vented the grievances he had endured for many years, and it was a sigh of relief for the "oppressed" teachers. Vulgar comedy looks simple, but it’s not easy to make a work that can make people laugh. It’s not just a matter of stringing up a few bad jokes to make a few exaggerated expressions, and it also requires a lot of "inspirational" ideas. This reminds me of Wang Jing, the representative of Hong Kong-style vulgar comedy. The golden age of "shit, piss" works can make the audience laugh without shame, but now the "hot pot fried cold rice" eating old work can only embarrass the audience.
