Fist Fight Wins Nothing but Detention. A movie that only got made because its stars obviously had a good time making it, Fist Fight is largely a cringeworthy waste of time and earns a disappointing 1 out of 5. On a particularly wild . Campbell's (Charlie Day) day goes from bad to worse when fellow teacher Mr. Strickland (Ice Cube) goes ballistic in his classroom, gets fired, and challenges Campbell to meet after the final bell for a schoolyard- style fist fight. Campbell is not the fighting type, and spends most of the movie either fretting about the impending fight, or going to great lengths to avoid it.
At his side are fellow teachers Holly (Jillian Bell) and Coach Crawford (Tracy Morgan); his wife and daughter (Jo. Watch Dina (2017) Movie Stream. Anna Garcia Swisher, Alexa Nisenson) swoop in for a bit for a familial subplot. Tragically, this one is high on the absurdity, but very little actually works. Some bright spots include Tracy Morgan (true to his unique brand of humor), a chuckle- inducing school security guard, and a running joke about a mariachi band that thankfully gets funnier every time it pops up. There is supposed to be an absurd kind of humor in everything presented (perhaps a bewildered attempt to point out the chaos of our times?) but two adult men preparing to duke it out like children really just comes across as uncomfortable.
Strickland is, in fact, terrifyingly violent - several times lashing out with an axe (including once at a student), and Mr. Campbell makes some equally violent threats as his mental stability deteriorates over the course of the film. While she is weakly shut down by Campbell on occasion, her infatuation is clearly meant for laughs, and ignores the horrific nature of real- life relationships where such a power imbalance is present. These scenes feel like they belong in a movie squarely about and for adults - they rub very wrong in a film filled with teens. Campbell's worldview changes as the day wears on, and he realizes the importance of standing up for himself. Strickland lives by the code that actions have consequences.

The teachers also discuss utilizing their chaotic environment to force those in power to enact social change - which almost works as a provocative and relevant idea. But in the end, it's too little too late. Several sexual references, including extended conversations between teachers about inappropriate and illegal sexual relationships with students. Some instances of pranking/vandalism which depict cartoon versions of male and female anatomy. A boy masturbates several times in a bathroom stall while watching porn.
Violence/Frightening/Intense: Nothing particularly bloody or gory, but several scenes depicting troubling and intense violence, such as people beating each other with blunt objects, a woman brandishing a knife, a man shooting others, a man wielding an axe and chopping a student’s desk to pieces, several violent threats, punching, choking, and an extended fist fight scene with some blood and visible injury. A horse drags a man through a building. Drugs/Alcohol: Several different drugs are discussed. A teacher admits to being a regular meth user. A man tries to buy drugs off a student, and is later shown smoking a joint. Download Radio Dreams (2017) Movie In Hd on this page.
