Where to Watch The Principal
- Mojojoejoe67May 20, 2025It’s an 80’s movie, pretty poor acting but a great predictable story. Couple of the supporting actors were actually quite decent and I didn’t have to use too many brain cells to watch it.
- Duncanmac76May 17, 2026Simple movie for simplier times. Worth a watch.
- jetma31April 29, 202680’s classic. Although not many have heard about this one. Deffo worth a watch.
