A depressed poetry teacher finds it hard to relate to his teenage son.
It reminds me of an Eddie Murphy comedy. It's not that funny and it's not that inventive, so I'm not sure what the point was.
Robin Williams in a more subdued roll. That's always a good thing to see. The film doesn't look like it will be great, but it could be interesting enough to be entertaining.
Williams got his Oscar and I don't foresee him coming back for a very long time, not with his recent output.
I have not seen this film.
