Released March 28 , 2014 in the US.
Filmed entirely in California.
The story : Guy is a guy with a bad attitude.
He's middle aged , single and proof reads product warranties for a living.
Guy has decided , seeing how he got a bad rap as a kid , to enter any and all spelling bees , making his way to the mother of them all.
There is no law against it and Guy takes his reporter friend along with him , just to make sure he is able to enter without too much trouble.
Although trouble is all Guy gets!
Everyone involved in the spelling bees believe it is just ridiculous for him , a grown adult , to be competing against kids more than 20 years younger than him.
It is unfair and he clearly is just doing it to win the cash prizes.
But Guy's mission goes a lot deeper than winning money or a trophy.
