Wrong Genre, Beephole

This movie is best when looked at as an "Action Comedy", I mean you've got Ned Flanders kicking beep and taking names! And the lines.....Holy beep! "It's not a day spa!" "That bitch had more fight than you" probably not verbatim. The ending was perfect. "How can I thank you? Name it." Not exact words, but the implication of sex as a reward didn't seem to cross the mind of this young guy, when her body language conflicted with the reality that there's a Mr. The high school protagonist, instead, closes with "Don't ever call me again!" - to the laughter and delight of the hot teacher.

Who said it wasn't an action comedy?

The imdb genre tags has it listed as action, thriller, suspense, etc. No comedy tag to be found. I dont think its mainly a comedy, but it should probably be there somewhere at the end yeah...

I think it is supposed to be Action, thriller, suspense movie but it's so far fetched that it's so funny and if you look at it as a comedy it's a much better movie.

It's light hearted, it doesn't take itself seriously. I loved it because of that.
