Barry Goldwater Elementary is on the brink of collapse: the lowest test scores in the state, teachers who are either drunk or having sex on school grounds, and a principal who extorts money from parents. It's up to Tom, the down-on-his-luck vice-principal, to rally the lazy teachers, expose the principal's corruption, and turn the school around before an end of the day board decision that is certain to lead to its closure.

I wouldn't be too quick to judge this movie (Lower Learning by Starz Entertainment) before we see it. We understand that it is being released this Friday 10/10/08. The trailer may not be the best, (which isn't uncommon for Hollywood) but it has peaked our interest to see what this is all about. The concept is clever and refreshing. I will be going with a few friends to see it this Friday and I will report back. It is easy to criticize and prejudge something before we know about it. Whether we like or dislike one or more of the actors in general, it doesn't mean that the rest of the cast doesn't "standout". I liked the dialogue between the kid and the teacher at the end of the trailer. However lacking some "pop" in the trailer, this could turn out to be fun entertainment, and I think we can all use some distracting and refreshing entertainment after the political disasters of the past weeks.

Went to see "Lower Learning" when it opened. The story turns out to be very funny, however, the movie is crass with a lot of foul language and drug and sex "inuendos". This is not for the faint at heart, but the movie overall was entertaining and enjoyable. The following actors picked up the movie several notches and made the movie very, very funny - Rob Corddry was great, so was Will Sasso and Monica Potter, Zachary Gordon who played the main kid, Frankie, was terrific. He played a very tough part for a kid his age, but carried it off without a flaw. I think we will be seeing alot more of him. If you are looking for Sci-Fi, fantasy, or a love story, this is not it. But if you like clever ideas, snappy dialogue, a fun and crazy movie, then Lower Learning just might turn out to be an enjoyable, escape for the evening.
