Fist Fight (2017)

Load of rubbish!!

In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

Here is a movie that irresponsibly glamorises all the tragic ills that are currently costing societies around the globe billions of dollars in mental and physical health support for: deadly substance abuse, sexual diseases, inane violence etc. This movie works only as a denouement of every aspect of mainstream movie making - the writers, producers, directors, actors and distributors - everyone has something to be totally ashamed of. The reviews posted from those genuine audiences who handed over their money to see this - clearly state they came away wishing they had known better (that they had been cheated) - that's a terrible result for the entire industry and in the long run will eventually work against it. You cannot continually disappoint audiences and expect that they will support or respect you. This trash fest should never have progressed beyond the bad idea's dept. Made, distributed and presented by immoral movie handlers of below average intelligence - for a likewise audience. Australian Foxtel please note: This is R material, not MA with a simple I rating. Time to get it right and supply your subscribers with an intelligent and HONEST assessment of the material you're presenting. If you want our respect, you won't win it with wildly inaccurate ratings for shoddy, irresponsible material like this and others that you're filling the airwaves with of late. There was once a time (fortunately some still do) when companies had the courage to make an internal decision to forgo profiting from pollution but sadly, Foxtel seems not to be amongst them.

Yeahh, this movie is crap. Completely random plot and below the par dialogue. What, the school is pretty much firing every teacher that are shown in the entire movie except for one but they're still planning to keep the school running? There's a story of a pusharound who everyone knows is a pussy, and as a cliché of all clichés, towards the end of the movie he'll finally become a man. But in the meantime he just runs around irritating everyone (viewers the most), trying to bribe and lie his way out of a fist fight. Dude who didn't even know how to make a fist with his hand, suddenly knows how to fight and almost wins. A daughter who can't really even get a word out of her mouth during a talent show all of a sudden starts rapping with a megaconfidence throwing around profanities. It just gets boring and doesn't even deliver as a light and stupid entertainment that I guess it's meant to be. It's more irritating than fun.

Now I've never in my 30 years of life felt compelled to write a review about anything good or bad, but dear god I felt it was my duty as a human being to sign up for this site so I can warn anyone who might read this in the future: STAY AWAY!I'm pretty easy to please. I'll admit I can enjoy any Sandler or Tyler Perry movie, or an episode of the Big Bang Theory. So don't think I'm holding this movie to any type of snobby standard. I've seen plenty of bad movies in my time but this one goes way beyond.I thought c'mon what's the worst that could happen? I mean it's got Charlie Day from the hilarious It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Ice Cube and Jillian Bell who were great in 22 Jump Street, Tracy Morgan from the modern classic 30 Rock. How can you go wrong? Well I don't know how but this movie makes them all not just unfunny but completely unlikable and manages to achieve a level of bad I never knew existed. I had to force myself asleep halfway through to save myself any further pain.It's not that the gags don't land, there's just not even attempts at humor. It's like instead of jokes we can have a penis drawing and everyone can say f*** every other word. They could've bought a box of popsicles and used the jokes on the sticks and it would have been 100x funnier. Maybe if you are 8 years old and this is your first R-rated movie but even then I would think you'd have better taste.How does this get made? Why did no one stop it? How can we protect ourselves and our children from ever experiencing this kind of assault on the human psyche? The type of movie to make me really question everything I thought I knew about comedy and if I even want to continue living. This movie makes 2 Broke Girls look like The Hangover. If I can save even just one person the agony I felt watching this, this review will have been worth it. Please trust me I'm trying to help you!

The first feature film for a television director. He did not get the best cast, but best among the second string. Charlie Day's first lead I'm seeing. I mean not like, among other big stars he used to do the roles. Yes, there are like Ice Cube in the film, but the whole narration was presented from the Charlie's viewpoint. This story needed strong voice, but he had none. You may get annoyed for that, but that's the first fun side of the tale. Charlie Day versus Ice Cube! This kind of combination is not new, but decently used to tell the story. I like Cube in comedies than the serious roles.Well, it's not about the story, it's just a one day event. The final day of the school and a tough day for all. Because some of the staffs were fired from the job, the students' misconduct peaked, it's totally a messy day. The English teacher, Campbell, gets into a fight for going against his co-staff. So the day goes on as the countdown begins for their most anticipated fight at the final bell of the school. The preparation for that and all other craziness take place before the finale.When the film started, it was like any other B movie, very familiar atmosphere and predictable. Once the second half kick-started, I felt it was getting better. And the climax was even better. So, it ended strongly, after a so-so opening. Till that end, I did not think it deserved a decent respect, but at the end a better one. With this kind of cast and thematic, the film was much better. Really a well made, nothing more than on the entertainment perspective. So, if that's your sole purpose to watch a film, then this is the right one. Go for it. A much better film than the rating it had received. #TeachersFight7/10
