Good

I actually thought that this film was pretty decent. It's a nice story, and Matthew Perry again proves that he is a serious actor, perhaps one of the only 'Friends' to have done so. Sure, there are no real twists in the plot and it's pretty... Read and rate it

I agree, the love story was useless. Especially since the real life Ron Clark is a homosexual. I've heard him speak in public and his REAL story is much more amazing than this movie. Read and rate it
