Although this movie has its funny moments it seems to be a large waste of a really good concept. It feels as though the writers spent more time on individual gags than a strong storyline.
Rating: 4/10
Synopsis
Roger, (Jon Heder) a beleaguered New York City meter maid, is plagued by anxiety and low self esteem. In order to overcome this, he enrolls in a top secret confidence building class taught by a suavely underhanded Dr. P (Billy Bob Thornton) who uses unorthodox, often dangerous methods, but he guarantees results: Employ his techniques and you will unleash your inner lion.
Surrounded by a band of misfit classmates - Walsh, Diego, and Eli Roger's, confidence grows, even finding the courage to ask out his longtime crush, Amanda. But Roger quickly discovers that star students have a way of catapulting Dr. P's competitive side into high gear.
Soon enough, the teacher sets out to destroy Roger's personal and professional life. In order to show Amanda Dr. P's true colours, Roger must rally his new friends and find a way to beat the master at his own game.
