Synopsis

THE FOOT FIST WAY is an uproarious, full-contact comedy featuring one of this year's least likeliest of heroes. Danny McBride plays a seriously self-deluded, small town instructor Fred Simmons. Self important Fred struts about the town boasting about his martial arts prowess, but his world comes crashing down on him when he discovers his wife Suzie (Mary Jane Bostic) is having an affair with her new boss.

His wife's betrayal and departure reduces him to pieces and he increasingly loses his temper during his Tae Kwon Do sessions taking his frustrations out on his students. It's not until he attends a Tae Kwon Do convention where his icon Chuck "The Truck" Wallace (Ben Best) is performing that starts to turn Fred's life around.
