Jon Heder plays an unlucky meter reader who enrolls in a confidence-building class so he can win the love of the girl of his dreams. The class turns out to be something quite different when it becomes clear to the young man that his professor (Thorton), has his sights set on the same girl. (official distributor synopsis)

An average film saved by a perfect choice of actors. I was really entertained by this film. And as someone here said: Good nostalgia... so what, I'll give it 4 stars.

Ultimately a below-average film. Billy Bob plays a character here that he has reprised several times, albeit under different names and in other films. Just a tough guy who's clear about everything and can't stand losers. It's all about a guy who wants to get a girl by acting like a complete asshole. And then comes the magic! It works! Unfortunate. You just can't watch the same thing for the hundredth time...
