Movie Reviews of The Ron Clark Story
Movie Review: The Ron Clark Story
Summary: 5 Stars
What a fantastic movie and worth every cent I paid for it. Matthew Perry was beyond great as Ron Clark. It was one on the greatest movies I have every seen. I would have given it more than 5 stars if I could have. Although the whole movie was super, one of my favorite scenes was when Ron learned to double dutch just to gain the confidence of his students (which by the way he actually did learn to double dutch). I thought Stand and Deliver, Lean on Me and Take the Lead were exceptional movies but this one was one step up from those. Knowing that this was based on a true story and Matthew's acting sure brings it to the top. I have watched it many times since I purchased it and will continue to do so. It is well worth seeing.Movie Review: Superstar!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful film. I'm really glad they brought it out on DVD, even though it's already been shown on network television. I love all the extras. My family was glued to the screen watching, even my 5 year old son. (My 9 month old daughter was just sitting, chewing on a cloth. But she did murmur a bit at the rapping.)
I would recommend this for purchase, and rental both. It's truly phenomenal what this teacher can do with these troubled students. I love the fact that they're building a school in his name as well. Fantastic!

Movie Review: Great Movie... It's a MUST Buy!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is seriously one of the best movies ever. Matthew Perry plays Ron Clark so well (and did I mention adorably?), and all the main kids in the movie are good actors/actresses. The story may seem a bit cliche, but unlike some other movies with a similiar plot, this one is based on a true story. It's so inspirational and will have you laughing, crying, and even cheering for the characters throughout the entire movie.
The extras are really neat too, and for the price, this movie is a MUST buy.
This may go down as one of my favorite movies... ever.
Movie Review: The man behind the books
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched this movie as a TV movie and thought it was perfect for my boyfriend who is a new teacher. The fact that the protagonist had such a strong desire to be a teacher made it more realistic that other teacher movies. My boyfriend had read The Essential 55 and actually uses some of the rules for his classroom and enjoyed seeing them as they were developing. Probably the best inspirational teacher movie out there! It shows more than one student-type in the classroom and its more real than every kid being brilliant but lazy.Movie Review: A true story of an inspiring teacher!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Ron Clark Story is stark, dramatic, true, and inspiring! As a volunteer with teenagers, I bought the DVD because I had seen the movie some years ago.
It is an excellent portrait of a teacher who was tested to the utmost extreme in order to help the teens in a truly poor school to achieve far beyond their own and their parents' dreams.
His success and theirs is dramatically shown, and is an inspiration for any who are lucky enough to see it.
You will not regret buying it.
