Everything Action Commentary: The Principal (1987)

from Everything Actioncast Hosted by Zach Sheets

For the latest Everything Action Commentary, as summer winds down and the back-to-school season begins, Zach and Chris watched the 1987 action comedy The Principal. Jim Belushi stars as Rick Latimer, who gets sent to be the principal of the crime-ridden Brandel High after an arrest for fighting at a local bar. Working with the school's head guard, Jake Phillips (Louis Gossett Jr.), Rick tries to clean up the school, get the kids back into class and take down the head of main gang threatening the school, Victor Duncan (Michael Wright). While watching the movie, Zach and Chris discuss how Rick seems to be able to turn people to his side after just one conversation, Rick's driving a motorcycle into the school, disgusting drink combinations, the secret real villain of the movie, the insane editing of the final fight and more. You can watch The Principal on Tubi or rent it from sites like Fandango at Home or Prime Video and sync it up with our commentary track to watch along. We want to hear your comments and feedback.
