VenturousArtist Drillbit Taylor follows three tormented friends who desire protection from absolutely anyone to prevent a vicious schoolyard bully from initiating more chaos. However, Taylor must decide between exploiting his services for money meanwhile protecting his identity, the boys, and blending into the school despite being known as an annoying lurker, thief, and beggar.It's no surprise Taylor has a complicated situation but it's merely his fault as with the outcomes among his relationships, interactions, and impending consequences. This especially applies to the main characters who aren't capable defending themselves or being believed when a dangerous individual consistently stalks, harasses, and morbidly abuses them.Despite the film's major efforts to maintain the attention span of its viewers, it struggles to balance comedy, drama, and romance with a seemingly disjointed runtime with some elongated scenes. While some parts are humorous with cheerful moments, others are however dependent on certain characters and subplots that are either useless, unresolved, or unprepared.But so was Drillbit since throughout the film he has a questionable demeanor towards everybody by appearing more as a selfish treacherous recluse than a trustworthy bodyguard, friend, and overall fellow. His actions spoke louder than his monotonous speeches and proved he either deserved what horrific things happened to him or seeking another source to satisfy his greed would be worthwhile.Aside the ridiculous nature with many questionable scenes, the film isn't terrible enough to not be enjoyed but not great enough to be better than what was created. There's some shallowness to the story, as with many characters, at the fault of the conjoined storytelling from three writers including Seth Rogen and John Hughes. The potential to elaborate the effects of bullying and outright menacing behavior by bullies while strategically merging it through comedy and drama are sometimes flat and dishonest. At times it desires being crass and sinister while being lighthearted and romantic but ultimately unbalancing everything due to its restraints on content. Audiences are expected to root for the strangely unlikable Drillbit, and the three hopeless victims, but their relationships remained crucially underdeveloped and sidetracked by other nonsense. It's like watching a fight where nobody is truly harmed until it's either too late or demanded by unsatisfied viewers.As the viewers, the protagonists desired vengeance but were given unreliable protection.

FilmBuff1994 Drillbit Taylor is a decent movie with a reasonably well developed storyline and a good comedic cast. There are definitely plenty of moments in this film that are pure fun, their is great chemistry between the cast members, the main kids are surprisingly talented for their age, and Owen Wilson definitely brings in the most charm and holds the entire movie together, he may be playing a character that is no different to one he's already played twenty times before, but he still steals the show. Though there are definitely some very funny scenes, there are parts that hit and miss too often as well, and there can also be a joke that stretches out for a long period despite not being funny in the first place, and they definitely left me feeling like it could have been a very memorable film if it didn't have those moments so often. The thing that this film fails desperately at, and is the main reason I'm giving this a six instead of seven, is trying to be sentimental, it's mostly just one joke after another for the first hour, but towards the last thirty minutes it tries to make its audience feel genuine affection and care for its characters, and it simply didn't work because, although they are likable characters, we never get very invested in them or their situation. It's definitely jam packed with imperfections, but Drillbit Taylor is still worth the watch if you ever see it on television and have some time to kill, but definitely don't go out of your way to watch it. Three kids hire a trained bodyguard to protect them from their school bully. Best Performance: Owen Wilson Worst Performance: David Koechner

Python Hyena Drillbit Taylor (2008): Dir: Steven Brill / Cast: Owen Wilson, Leslie Mann, Nate Hartley, Troy Gentile, David Dorfman: Promising concepts sinks with formula storytelling and an ending that seems to enforce violent solutions. Three teenagers become the victim of a school bully so they hire a bodyguard. Answering the ad is Drillbit Taylor, a homeless thief who uses the situation for profit but viewers can see the change of heart ahead. Directed by Steven Brill who made the funny Without a Paddle as well as the embarrassing Little Nicky. This is certainly a step up from the latter film. Owen Wilson has comic potential and pulls off his usual typecast to great appeal here but the fact that he must solve the plot with his fists is a downer. Leslie Mann as an English teacher he fornicates with is a complete waste. Viewers know that she will hook up with Taylor, be disgusted when the truth comes out, yet reconcile in the conclusion and absolutely none of it is worth the ambition to write out in the screenplay. The three teenagers played by Nate Hartley, Troy Gentile and David Dorfman and hold their own with believable circumstances but what do they learn aside from physical violence as a way of dealing with problems? Because of this its potential message of bullying is bullied out of the screenplay in favour of the wrong solution. Juvenile comedy shows its true colours during concluding violence. Score: 4 ½ / 10
