Kindergarten Cop (1990)

Overview · Where to watch · Cast & crew · Reviews

Go ahead, YOU tell him you didn't do your homework.

Hard-edged cop John Kimble gets more than he bargained for when he goes undercover as a kindergarten teacher to get the goods on a brutal drug lord while at the same time protecting the man's young son. Pitted against a class of boisterous moppets whose antics try his patience and test his mettle, Kimble may have met his match … in more ways than one.
