NC's "Foot Fist Way" NY Times' Critics' Pick
May 30, 2008
Fred Simmons (Danny McBride) is the type of blustery, provincial narcissist who is always putting his foot in his mouth and absolutely loving how it tastes. By day this goofball guru of a suburban tae kwon do studio teaches his disciples how to bust cinder blocks according to a five-step code of honor ("self-control, courtesy, perseverance, integrity, indomitable spirit"). By night he flops on the couch and pretends to care about his wife, Suzie (Mary Jane Bostic), and her day at work. Her new job as a dental office assistant apparently entails little more than compiling lists of co-workers "most likely to go on a killing spree" and photocopying her breasts.
