I only watched this movie based on the high rating it got on IMDb. And I got fooled again. Because it is certainly not as good as they want to make us believe. Morgan Freeman is a good actor, we all know that, and here in Lean On Me he is also good but the script is just not good enough. It's one of those movies with a message. Or a lot of messages in this case. And it does look so cheesy at moments it becomes annoying. The poor uneducated kids in a terrible school bullied and controlled by drug dealers that get cleaned out and then suddenly fights back to become successful. Sorry but it's so cheesy I was wondering how it got such a high average on IMDb. It's okay to watch once but that's about it.
