      Audience Member Wow, this is one amazing movie. It has a really really good laugh. Story to it too. I was amazed by it and I think you will be too. Yes I highly recommend it James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas December 29, 2022. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/30/22 Full Review carlos t Minha opinião: Este filme encontrei no #youtube oque me chamou a atenção foi o nome Ryan Reynolds o eterno #Deadpool e sem pretensão nenhuma comecei a assistir lembrando que é um filme de 2005, quer dizer antes de todo mundo saber o nome Ryan. Mas me surpreendi, um filme ao estilo do professor que leciona fora da caixa. Como #RobbinWilliams em a Sociedade dos Poetas Mortos. Este filme não é tão profundo como. Mas de um professor que através de suas técnicas diferentes fazem os alunos se interessarem pela matéria e querer fazer os deveres. De interagirem entre seus colegas. E quem faz este papel Ryan. E tem o professor que morre de ciúmes dele interpretado por David Paymer que faz o seu papel bem feito e onde da o toque de #humor na trama. Até que chega ao final do filme David descobre que Ryan esta em tratamento de câncer. E descobre que ele foi grande fã de seu pai que foi a inspiração para ele se tornar um professor, ensinou ele a ter amor nesta profissão e nesta decoberta David também desperta para oque o pai lhe ensinava. Uma comédia leve, gostosa de assistir onde tem o humor e seu drama. Ver Ryan tão jovem interpretando foi muito legal. E perceber que seus trejeitos ele já tinha nesta época. O filme não se aprofunda no drama do câncer. Roteiro: light um bom enredo. Vale apena assistir? Sim, com a família. Nota: 7 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review aaron g One of those feel good movies that unfortunately spends too much time building up the negatives before getting to the message. David Paymer's character was so befuddled, unrealistic, and overall awkward that it just never felt right when he enters his enlightened phase. Ryan's character as Mr. D. was well timed, played, and gives a good indication for his future roles in other films. Overal, worth one watch, but not needed for the library for future views. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member It almost made me cry. It's like a legit story of how much someone you would care about end up dying that's just dramatic Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member School of Life speaks well on an important issue of teaching in schools, but fails with poorly developed characters and many stereotypes. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review corkball There is some charm and a few funny moments in this otherwise sappy jr high melodrama. Mostly it is a compilation of cheesy scenes and cliches from other movies. I like Reynolds normally, but this is a bit over the top as the 'cool teacher', and he seems to be wearing way too much foundation or something.
