This wacky prequel to the 1994 blockbuster goes back to the lame-brained Harry and Lloyd's days as classmates at a Rhode Island high school, where the unprincipled principal puts the pair in remedial courses as part of a scheme to fleece the school.

Just an ok movie. It seemed liked they were trying way to hard to be funny. Some parts were but most of it was just annoying.
