Overview

Hard-edged cop John Kimble gets more than he bargained for when he goes undercover as a kindergarten teacher to get the goods on a brutal drug lord while at the same time protecting the man's young son. Pitted against a class of boisterous moppets whose antics try his patience and test his mettle, Kimble may have met his match … in more ways than one.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A musclebound action star plays it charmingly fish-out-of-water as a hardened cop learning tenderness from kindergarteners while orchestrating a sting operation. It's a crowd-pleasing blend of slapstick comedy and genuine warmth that doesn't take itself too seriously.
