Napoleon Dynamite Movie Synopsis

From Preston, Idaho comes Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder), a new kind of hero complete with a tight red 'fro, some choice moon boots, and skills that can't be topped. Napoleon spends his days drawing mythical beasts, duking it out with his 32-year-old brother Kip (Aaron Ruell) and avoiding his Uncle Rico (Jon Gries), a door-to-door salesman who's mentally stuck in 1982 - the year his football team "almost won state." But when two new friends are brought into his life - Deb (Tina Majorino), the artisan behind the "boondoggle key chain," and Pedro (Efren Ramirez) with his sweet bike and talent with the chicks - Napoleon finds goals outside of being a star milk-tasting judge. Together the trio launches a campaign to elect Pedro for class president and make the student body's wildest dreams come true. But if Pedro is to beat the stuck-up Summer Wheatley (Haylie Duff), Napoleon will have to unleash his secret weapon...

best movie ever

i love Napleon Dynamite<3<3<3

One of the best comedies I have seen in years. When it originally came to the theatres, I refused to see it. From the trailer I watched, I was not too impressed. When it came on DVD, a friend of mine rented it while I was at his place. I couldn`t believe how funny the movie was, especially the quirky charactors. I went to high school with a guy who acted like Napoleon, perhaps that is why I enjoyed the movie so much. It really reminded me of high school and how much I didn`t enjoy it. I plan to buy the "Special Edition" DVD, "Napoleon Dynamite". As great as the movie was, I really hope they don`t make a sequel. This movie stands on i
