Mr. Woodcock


Mr. Woodcock

Who's in it: Billy Bob Thorton, Seann Willaim Scott, Susan Sarandon

What's it about: When he was in middle school, John(Scott) had Mr. Woodcock(Thorton) for his gym teacher. He was certain that Mr. Woodcock killed children. Now that he's grown up and a successful writer, he's come home to visit his mother(Sarandon). To his surprise, she's now engaged to his childhood nemisis. In a frantic rush to break them up, John insults his childhood friends, his town, and even worse, his mother.

What I Think: I thought that this was a crazy movie with all of the insane attempts Scott used. The comedy was great and had me laughing and waiting for the next scene to occur. I thought that Thorton did a great job acting as a 'psychotic' coach. The ending was also a great one.
