Threat advisory: Elevated - Significant risk of entertaining activities
Movie propaganda
You get what you pay for.
Ryan (Troy Gentile), Wade (Nate Hartley) and Emmit (David Dorfman) attend their first day at high school and they're pumped... until they meet up with Filkins, a school bully who comes off like a little Hannibal Lecter. Before they become completely engulfed in Filkins' reign of terror, they seek out some protection by placing an ad in soldier of fortune magazine. Their best response - and the cheapest - comes from Drillbit Taylor (Owen Wilson), a down-on-his luck soldier of fortune who lives a homeless - he likes to say "home free" - existence on the beach. He enrols them in some physical and mental training.

Theatrical report
Drillbit Taylor is funnier than you'd expect (which is "not much" given the premise), in that 40-year-old virgin/Knocked up way.
I am very concerned about the prevalence of bullies in USA high schools, however. According to Hollywood, it is pandemic.
The comedy movie Drillbit Taylor is directed by Steve Brill and stars Owen Wilson, Alex Frost, Nate Hartley.
