all throughout high school mr woodcock give kid a really hard time in gym class . so hard that one student write a book on how to live your life and overcome such obstacle . this young man be all grow up and return home to hear that his mother be engage to . mr. woodcock . thus provide more hard time for our lead character and apparently some unfunny situation that we be suppose to laugh at . ever since the very funny bad santa and there have be a slew of billy bob thorton play an asshole type comedy . the one prior to this entry be school for scoundrel . now and if you play this two movie one after another i guarantee you that you would not be able to tell which character be from which movie and since they be almost the exact same . this film and scoundrel and both feature thorton an autopilot . while he still get the laugh and it the rest of the film that fail horribly around him and it make me wonder how many more of these film we be go to get . sean william scott get no laugh here . he be not play the pervert jerk ( road trip and american pie ) nor be this an action comedy ( the rundown and bullet proof monk ) . so we be treat to a boring character and play by a wooden scott . i can not help but say that the lead role be horrible miscast here . the script be nothing new and nor funny . mr. woodcock unfortunately fall into the category that hurt so many comedy . the old and if you have see the trailer and you have see all the funny part . it be completely true in this case . i do chuckle here and there and but that only because thorton be abusive to little kid .
