*I didn't know anything about this until the trailer came out.
*All I knew is that it looked pretty dang funny.
*I also figured it was going to have some silly adult humor (which of course it did).
*I wasn't sure about Jillian Bell though as I generally find her annoying.
*This is the first time I have heard of the director Richie Keen who has a few films under... read more

Movies Viewed in 2023 (578 movies items)" First Viewing Viewing Date: April 23rd Via: Stan. Plot: When one school teacher unwittingly causes another teacher's dismissal, he is challenged to an after-school fight. Terrified of what might happen, he then spends the entire school day trying to prevent the fight from happening. Rating: 6.4/10 Why Did I Watch It? This popped up on IMDb after I watched Middle School. It's a 90-minute, R-rated comedy with good comedic actors, and it's free on Stan., so I immediately went for it."

“"Fist Fight" is interesting in the sense that it lingers in some form of limbo between a decent comedy and a complete mess. You might think this is a form of saving grace but this really just means that it is a fairly generic and pedestrian affair that it is almost nondescript if you were forced to remember it vividly.
The plot is simple, a somewhat neurotic teacher (Charlie Day) gets in the crosshairs of an extremely aggressive co-worker (Ice Cube) and spends the rest of the time stumbling in and out of hairbrain plots to avoid the titular fist fight he's been challenged to by him.

Seen in 2018 (388 movies items)"I like most of the cast here but this movie just wasn't funny at all. The end fight was okay but there was too much stupid unfunny stuff to get through before that."
BradWesley123's Movie Journal- June 2017 (30 movies items)" DVD- 1hr. 31min. First Viewing There are a few solid moments of humor, but Fist Fight is mostly content to stay with the R-rated studio sandbox; lots of cursing, drugs, "man up", "be more spontaneous", etc. It does actually get fun towards the end of the film, when the film's title becomes a reality; the extent that the fight goes, and the actually decent choreography within it, provide some laughs and added interest, but not enough to otherwise save a safely bland picture."
Films I've Seen in 2017 (December) (62 movies items)"When: December 11th First-Time Viewing: No. How: DVD from the library. What'd I Think?: Over the top, but enjoyable diversion. My Rating: 6/10 Other Notes: NA."
Watched in 2017 (203 movies items)"Watched 06/01/2017 Rating 5.0/10 Format: Blu Ray For a comedy movie it barely made me laugh Charlie Day was ok but i expecting more Ice Cube pretty much plays the loud angry dude basically same character that he was in the Jump Street movies only not as good. "
