Movie Reviews of The Principal
Movie Review: Belushi at his best
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of if not the best of James Belushi's movies. I love watching the 'teacher fix a school' kind of movie like The Substitute, Dangerous minds, Lean on Me because I relate to the difficult task a teacher or administrator is charged with in U.S. school systems. The Principal does utilize some of the typical cliche's such as the 'main man bad guy' or 'out of control students' but it's done in such a way it's fun to watch. Both Lou Gossett jr. and Rae Dawn Chong give excellent supporting roll performances. The Principal is about a teacher who goes and has gone through some tough personal battles (ex wife he still loves, turns to drink, etc) and it treats us to an inside look at a man who's just trying to get through and do his job. He's (belushi), offerred the job as Principal at a school (Surprise!) and the rest of the movie follows him through his, the school, the students, and faculty's learning process. In many ways The Principal is the best of the 4 or 5 good 'teacher movies' out there.Movie Review: Excellence in movie making
Summary: 5 Stars
The Principle is a riviting, edge of your seat kind of movie. It was well written, and the actors do their part very well. It goes to show that not all kids are bad, some are just in bad situations. If someone cares enough to help, it can go a long way in improving someone's life. This is a must see movie.Movie Review: Belushi is the man
Summary: 5 Stars
Man if you ever thought you were SOL, watch this movie. Belushi totally kicks rear end as Rick Latimer, a take-no-crap motorcycle riding teacher who is assigned to Brandel High School, the worst high school in the city, which even offers rape and weed as majors. A must see.
An easy 5/5
Movie Review: Belushi Is One Tough Dude
Summary: 5 Stars
I just saw this movie today on FX and damn...it's badass. I had never even heard of it until seeing promos for it the past couple of days, and I've got to give props. [...]
The auditorium scene is great...Belushi lets the students know that "The Principal" is in charge.
Movie Review: No More!
Summary: 5 Stars
He is the princpal at the worst High School in the area. And the students get raped, beatten, everyone is smoking or taking somthing.
All he asks is no more! Great movie........
