And spreads the message that being a complete phony with a nice smile will make people like you, and take you further in life than hard work.
I actually find that movie kind of dark and depressing, I never really liked it. The protagonist is smarmy and manipulative, and his best friend is beyond miserable and tough to take. The only person who truly cracks me up is the principal.
