Horrid Henry: The Movie

Down with the boys!

Girls rule! Girls are cool!

Down with the boys!

Girls rule! Girls are cool!

Down with the boys!

Singing Soraya.

Sour Susan.

- Guess who?

- Me!

And Moody Margaret,

my number one enemy.

Be honest, no, don't!

- You were going too fast.

- No, I wasn't.

- You were way too slow.

- I don't care!

What's wrong with you?

But I'm deputy head.

This isn't some kind of game.

This is a sophisticated club

and it's my club and I can do what I like.

I'm deputy head as I've already said.

Shouldn't be just like...

Aagh! Enemy attack!

Na-na-na, na na na!

Mission accomplished!

I hate you, Henry!

Henry!

Homework, now!

No-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o!

Oh, hi, I'm Henry, and this is my world.

- Firstom, mydad.

- Henry!

He says the same thing to me every day.

Get up those stairs right now

and do your homework

or there'll be no more television for a week.

- Heard it before.

- A month.

- Oh, come on!

- A year.

No way!

Then there's my wormy little brother, Peter,

and his annoying cello.

Hey, Peter. It's not bad...

for a smelly nappy baby.

And then Mum says:

Don't be horrid, Henry!

So then I got to my room and do my homework.

Only joking.

Why'd I want to do my homework?

I'm way too busy.

Wha-ha! Rocking out!

Some day I'm gonna be a rock star.

# Got no time for homework

# Too busy being me

# Singing Zero Zombies

# Eating beans for tea

# Down with wormy worms

# That's what I decree

# I'm the king around here

# The all-time majesty

# They say that I am horrid

# But little do they know

# I'm really, really horrid

# And that's the way it goes

# I'm a hero, I'm a pirate

# Touching close with cool

# A Tyrannosaurus Rex

coming straight at you

# Come on

# Wanna croon it, croon it, croon it

# I just wanna do it

# I just wanna croon it

# Too cool, too cool, for school

# No no no no no

# I'm nobody's fool

# Too cool for school

Henry!

Henry! Henry!

I said, get up.

I'm getting up, Mum.

Get up and get dressed!

I'm getting dressed, Mum.

Right. That's it.

You're going to make us all late.

I'm not gonna make us all late, Mum.

I've re-stocked the loo rolls,

cleaned my toothbrush holder,

dusted under the bath

and now I'm going to polish my shoes.

That's a good boy, Peter.

Henry?

Go away, worm!

Aagh! Mum!

And don't forget your homework!

Henry!

Shoo, Fluffy!

Ooh, there it is.

Oh, no!

Come on, Henry, get your coat on.

It's time for school!

Hi!

Hey, guys, wait for me!

Peter!

Look, those are Peter's little miends.

They love school and I really, really hate school.

Anyway, here goes.

Eugh!

That's Ralph.

Better known as Rude Ralph.

And that's Aerobic Al.

Brainy Brian.

And Bee Bert.

- I dunno.

I dunno!

With miends like these,

school's not all bad.

Together, we are The Purple Hand Gang.

Brian, I need a note.

I haven't got my homework.

- So what's new, Henry?

- OK.

Quiet in the classroom.

Settle down. Order in the classroom.

- Margaret?

- Here, Miss.

Susan?

Yeah? Oh. Here, Miss Battle-Axe.

- Ralph?

- Here, Miss.

- Al?

- Here, Miss.

- Bert?

- Er... I dunno.

Brian?

Here, Miss.

William?

Oh, Weepy William.

Here, Miss.

Linda?

Or Lazy Linda.

Here, Miss.

Henry?

Horrid Henry.

Here, Miss.

Late mark.

Right, get out your homework.

Oh, please, Miss.

What is it, Henry?

I haven't got my homework, Miss.

Why am I not surprised, Henry?

Oh, I've got a note, Miss.

"Dear Miss B.

The cat ate Henry's homework again.

Bad cat.

Signed Henry's mum. "

Something tells me your mother

did not write this note, Henry.

What do you mean, Miss Battle-Axe?

And something tells me you did not write

this note, either, Henry.

How do you spell homework?

H- O-M-E...

Ooh, that's very good, Henry.

The next little bit might be a bit harder,

seeing as you've never done any.

How do you spell work?

W...

...E...

R- K?

No, no, no, no.

W- O-R-K.

That is how you spell work.

And that's why I know

you did not write this note, Henry.

Because work is spelt correctly in this note

and I know you'd never be able

to spell it correctly.

Ah.

Enter!

Boudicca, I just wanted to remind you

the school inspectors will be here again today

and we don't want any more...

unpleasantness.

Of course not, Miss Oddbod.

(sigh of relie

Thank you, Boudicca.

Now...

where was I?

Oh, yes. Detention.

Single detention

for failing to do your homework.

Double detention

for failing to bring in your homework.

And triple detention for getting somebody else

to write this note

on your behalf about your homework.

- But...

- Silence!

H- O-M-E

W- O-R-K.

Homework.

Now... is there anybody else

who failed to bring in their homework?

Good.

(hums to hersel

Yes?

The school inspectors are here to see you,

Miss Oddbod.

Thank you, Sidmouth.

OK.

Without practice, we won't be ready

for the talent contest.

- But we've no instruments.

- Who needs instruments?

Come on, Henry, let's rock.

Go Zero Zombies!

Yeah!

Actually... no.

I haven't got any music.

Allow me...

...Lord High Majesty

ofthe Purple Hand Gang.

Yeah!

One, two, three, four.

Here at Ashton Primary,

we have nothing to hide.

# Gonna be a rock star

# We don't need to go to school

# Gonna be a rock star

Absolutely nothing to hide.

# Just you wait and see

# Cos the boy on that stage will be me

Yeah!

(sings quietly to himsel

Just what do you think you're doing?

Erm...

...practising for the talent contest,

Miss Oddbod.

I see.

And are you practising trying to get

this school closed down, too?

Erm...

And get down from there right now,

you... horrid boy.

Miss Oddbod doesn't believe in rock stars.

But I know the Zero Zombies

can win the talent contest.

Oh! Missed, bogey brain!

Huh?

- Hey, Margaret. Check this out.

- Huh?

Please! That'll never hit me.

Ordinarily she'd be right.

But I have a plan.

It's called Flick the Bogey.

Carefully worked out

with military precision,

and resulting in a devastating

airburst attack.

Henry!

I'll get you, Henry!

Aagh!

Aagh! Mum!

Homework, Henry.

It's just not fair, Fang.

Homework should be climbing trees,

building forts and playing with mates.

This is my best mate. Fang.

He can climb steep walls.

He can walk on the ceiling
