Review of School for Scoundrels

This movie wasn't good, not at all... But it wasn't that bad either... I like John Heder, I thought he was pretty good in Napoleon Dynamite, playing the ultimate loser. But then I saw The Benchwarmers and Just Like Heaven, and I thought to myself: Man, this is a one-trick-pony... He needs to progress, a lot! But in School for Scoundrels, I saw that with the right co-actor (Thornton) and a half-decent director (Phillips) it was possible to squeeze a decent (and i mean decent, not good) performance out of him. The story was predictable, but judging on by this movie, Heder could have a future in the movie-industry as a versatile actor. Don't get me wrong, he's not that great, but he could evolve, like Sandler or Carrey. Anyways, happy to see he can do more than play a complete loser.
