My Superbad Bodyguard, Jun 27 2008
Imagine Superbad (minus the profanity and humor) mixed with My Bodyguard (minus the smarts) and you'll get Drillbit Taylor, a watered down, brainless high school movie about freaks and geeks.
Homeless slacker with a plan
Convinces kids that he's the man
To save them from their high school woes
Heigh ho, heigh ho, and off he goes
A drifter, con man and a thief
He's fishing for a maple leaf
But soon succumbs to greater greed
Instead of only chicken feed
He takes the boys under his wing
And soon he gets into the swing
And though his pupils try their best
The bully's clearly not impressed
Predictable and full of holes
Like many Owen Wilson roles
Take this Drillbit off your list
A bogeyed hole that's better missed
Short Attention Span Summary (SASS):
1. You get what you pay for
2. To avoid overpayment, wait for this one on cable

Pile of rubbish, Oct 4 2008
This review is from: Drillbit Taylor (Extended Survival Edition) (DVD)
The concept behind this movie is rather cool: 3 Geeks in high school that are constantly tormented by 2 bullies enlist the help of Drillbit Taylor (played by Owen Wilson), a homeless ex-army officer and full-time beach bum.
While the concept should make for an entertaining film, the execution is ho-hum. Packed with stereotypes, cliches, bad acting and overall idiotic situations, Drillbit Taylor should be avoided, regardless of your age group.
