Overall a pretty good movie. 

To sum it up, it’s what Benchwarmers should have been, and the perfect prequel to Swingers.   The movie essentially is about a bunch of losers who  acquire the services of the anti-Hitch Billy Bob Thornton.  (Anti-Hitch meaning the Sith/Vader version of Will Smith’s Hitch character.) 

Two very funny parts deal with a tennis match, and some paintball warfare.  Lots of familiar faces- Jon Heder, Billy Bob, Horatio Sanz, David Cross, Marcellus from Pulp Fiction, that guy from Upright Citizens Brigade, and the VH1 guy with the big gap.  Although the movie focusses mainly on Jon Heder and Billy Bob, the supporting cast creates a nice buzz and blurs the fact that they are merely the ’supporting cast.’  All characters were played well, fit the story and add to the laughs. 

Under certain circumstances, School for Scoundrels would classify as a good date movie, provided you’re well into the relationship – don’t want to bring a 1st or 3rd date to it as it may give away some of your tactics… (Depending on your style.)

Final Verdict – good movie to download/netflix but I’m not going to put it on the shelf.  (Especially with Borat releasing in under a week.)  Great for some good laughs, good story, and some good knowledge/teachings.  8/10.
