John, a high school student, will inherit mucho moola if he stays out of the detention room at school. He fails to do it and gets socked with demerits. When the principal is away on a conference, erstwhile John arranges for a skid row denizen to take his place. Pourquoi? Because the new principal Fitz (Kevin Nealon) can get into computer files and erase any black marks on John's record. The course of true treachery, however, never does run smooth. And, behold, Fitz has cast his eye on a nice female teacher and aspires to run a tight ship.

What an enjoyment this movie is! Nealon does a great job as the bum who cleans up good and charms. The students around him are typical teenagers who try to get the better of him, but, he does not have feet of clay. There's even a romance to satisfy those incurable types out there. Recommended as family fun, fun, fun till Daddy takes the VCR or DVD player away.
