It looks like a decent movie but the storyline has been used too many times. A new teacher comes to a school full of trouble makers, Nobody can get the kids to listen but she forces them to apply themselves and gain something from life.It's been done too many times.

The whole black juvenile school is kind of overplayed, but it is still a nice see.

Tony, I would like to stress that you are extremely wrong about this movie. It is based on a true story and its very inspiring. I loved the movie.

"Come on ghetto black kids and Mexicans, put down the crack-pipe, get off your 15 year old girlfriend and do your m***f***in' math homework." Yawn. Seen one you've seen them all.

It was still a good movie though...

And there's that inspirational movie about the hispanic teacher in LA and that black principal that brought a school from nothing in an inner-city eastcoast high school....there's a million of them. All the reviews said it's one of those movies you've seen 10 times, so I didn't bother seeing it.

I've seen this movie and it isnt that great. its actually pretty damn boring.
