For those who still regards David Lynch as of one the greatest masters of surrealism in film, this video is gonna blow your head. Yes, it's the toughest guy of the 80's, and he is willing to teach how to be a better person! (you can't get better than this).From the opening song (just listen Mr T singing the chorus), to the last song (a hilarious rap song), Mr T gives you some bizarre tips for severe problems as anger, peer pressure, shyness and the like. What is more, all these situations become more and more surreal due to the erratic behavior of the host (the scene with the cello is creepy), who tries to show himself as a sensitive guy by not being sensitive at all(amazing huh?).Don't get me wrong, this is not just another 80's fest with bubblegum pop songs, break-dance moves, colorful clothes. On the contrary, this is an instructional video with bizarre situations, surreal dialogues, deep messages, forgotten glories from the past (New Edition), and of course, a guy named Mr T. I wish you could enjoy it, because for me it was to complex to understand.

This is a classic kid's educational video starring the one and only Mr T.The whole premise of BSoBSF is that Mr T (or Doctor T or Coach T, depending on which hilarious persona he is at the time) teaches the viewer about things such as respect, friendship, and daydreaming (?).Mr T carries this thing, and that is what makes this funny. Ever want to see T smear egg salad on his face, or attempt to do the robot, or smile and take pictures of kids in slacks while talking about his 'cool style'? Here's your chance. And Stacy Ferguson, aka Fergie, is supposedly in this, but I couldn't pick her out.Other highlights include T being completely owned by a 8 year old kid in dancing, not saying words correctly when acting as a teacher, doing crouches while balancing popcorn on his head, the whole Style segment of the most hideous 80's style ever put together, T badly singing a song about respect your mother, a terrible Jackson 5 impersonator, and a fat kid who can't do rudimentary things like go down a slide correctly, or do a jumping jack.Basically, the whole thing is a hoot if you enjoy really corny and bad edutainment films, or like Mr T (ie everyone).8/10

Mr. T's Be Somebody or Be Somebody's Foo! Teaches little kids that in order to be somebody, you have to learn how to break dance, wear absoludicrous clothing, make up stories about your hair, and above all respect your mother (all while avoiding peer pressure, and walking through the surf in all your clothes).Mr. T did not make this movie to help little kids. He made it to prove to little kids that ex bouncers and television personalities are more socially inept than themselves. For example, Mr. T pretends to be a doctor, and forgets to put on pants. What does he do to stop himself from being embarrased? He strips down to red hot pants and works out.Another example, Mr. T trys to play the cello. First try, he cannot stay in the chair, I repeat, MR. T CANNOT SIT IN A CHAIR.Mr. T also offers kids advice, such as: Use anger, don't loose it! respect your mother, and if you trip while skipping down the street and you happen to be wearing a jumpsuit, just breakdance, you won't look like an idiot then....The best part is the Styling part (pronounced stylin). Here the kids give a fashion show, but Mr. T tells them that Calvin Klein wouldn't wear clothes with your name on them so you shouldn't wear his name on your clothes, or something like that. So the kids all tape their own name over the designer label. Anyways, Mr. T. narrates, just like a regular fashion show announcer, who is reading from cue cards. He comes up with some great ones like "Xena and Zena are dressed up for that exciting walk to the grocery store" and "In her mustard socks and ketchup sash, she's a real hot dog" I am not making this up.This segment single-handedly made 80's fashion so awful. The best part of the segment is Jeff who is about 25 years old, wearing a plaid shirt, suspenders, and pegged jeans who dances around like he's doing a cross between ballet and epilleptic seizures. Anyways, what have we learned? That Mr. T wants you to be a better person, and you'd better be, or he'll beat you up, or at least throw tato salat at you, foo.

I'm giving this a 10 for entertainment value. Of course it isn't entertaining in the way it was meant to be, but its definately great to watch! Where do I start? Well for one you get Mr. T explaining the chains he wears around his neck, and how they are about his roots. Notice how he says it, "these changes" - yes he's talking about "chains" but says "changes" just cause thats Mr. T talk! Also, when fussing about kids eating junk food, you get the great line "Whats this? Popcorn! Tato Chip!" Then you have the great scene where the kids find a full, unopened beer, AND a pack of cigarettes, in the trash can! If only I was so lucky! Then the kids of course sip on the beer and smoke the cigarettes, and try to talk the only "smart" kid into doing it, while Mr. T is off to the side shaking his head, apparently only seen by the one kid. Then enters the line of black guys singing "peer pressure!" Oh and I cant forget the scene where Mr. T gets mad at a fly and slaps his hand into the potato salad, then into his own face, covering himself in potato salad. And, ok, just one more thing! There is a part where Mr. T talks about being yourself, and not worrying about brand names, cause they are stupid and meaningless, just wear what clothes you like! Then in the very next segment he's sporting a jacket with a huge Adidas logo on it! Trust me this stuff is GREAT! Go find a copy now!
