...because this became a teenage cult movie. Adults just don't get it. Just about every teenager I've talked to loves the movie and has seen it multiple times. They identify with Napoleon. Some have even memorized the lines. The local mall sold out of "Pedro for President" T-shirts months ago. Napoleon is a hero to them because he's a nerd, get's harassed and doesn't let it bother him. He's so uncool - he's too cool to care. In the end he wins. It doesn't get much better thn that. How was your high school experience?

which said that although the movie started slowly it was a good one. I kept waiting for something funny to happen but it never did in my view.while i am a relatively old fart (43) for this type of genre I don`t think its my age that stopped me from finding it funny as I have found many other movies targetted for this age group most amusing. With such a flat script my guess is the popularity for this movie is attributable to the actors all of whom were very well cast.
