Chuck Wilson L.A. Weekly Lafferty is all about expletives and sexual innuendo of the frankest kind, some of it so raunchy (and unfunny) as to make one wonder if the parents of the film's many child actors bothered to read the script. Oct 9, 2008 Full Review Read all reviews

Yuri B OMG, this was hilarious, I couldn't believe I've never watched before now. The teachers were the worst, & those kids, some of them were something else entirely. But Monica Potter's character had me rolling, watching her breakdown in front of a bunch of 2nd graders & them calling her out on it was epic. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review mark g Not a masterpiece, but hard to not have laughs with this much talent. And there are plenty of laughs. Enjoyable enough, lighten up Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/17/25 Full Review
