Assassination of a High School President: Review By The CryptKeeper

I saw the trailer for this a while back. I thought it looked alright, but told myself I'd see it for Bruce Willis and Mischa Barton. There it was at Blockbuster so I rented it.

I noticed that there are no reviews for this film yet. With that in mind, I feel like it's my duty to tell you what's up with this movie. I know this isn't my best or longest of reviews, but it will have to suffice.

So, to the movie. It was alright. Not the worst movie I've seen. Definitely not the best. It started out good...but then kinda just fell apart. It's about the SAT scores being stolen at a high school. Bruce Willis is the principal, and he's pissed. He's a very hardcore principal, and he sure is funny. The main character (played by Reece Daniel Thompson) is asked by the school hottie (Mischa Barton) to find the SAT's because she feels she got a good grade. Since she's a hottie, he does it. It's funny, and a highly original story, but it doesn't have enough material to carry an hour and a half film. Too bad, because I actually love this story and think it should have been handled better, maybe by a more experienced writer or director. After a while, it just got boring. I gotta admit, there's a slight twist at the end, as to who stole the SAT's, and it got me.

So I say rent it if it's free, or you have nothing else to rent. But don't go out of your way for it.
