Average Joe

It's the supposedly real story of a guy who came from a poor family that had too many kids; fell in love with the first girl that he saw; betrayed his friend; beat said friend up; didn't care about dirtying his mom's clean house floor; skipped classes; got in trouble with the police; scammed people out of their money; disrespected his boss; didn't obey a direct order in the military; effed around instead of doing his job in the military; got a job due to white straight male privilege; disobeyed the education institution he was working for and a supreme court ruling; and yet he's being touted as an american hero in this movie.
