Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Lee Eisenberg Jake Kasdan's "Bad Teacher" is an unabashedly silly movie. Given Cameron Diaz's characters antics, Jack Black or Melissa McCarthy could've just as easily played the role. There's also the occasional bodily function humor.Obviously the movie's nothing to take seriously. Just a big excuse to be ridiculous. Probably the sort of movie that they had fun making. It was a surprise to see that one of the screenwriters shares a name with me (he also wrote for the US version of "The Office").Basically, it's the sort of movie that you watch if you want nothing except to get entertained. Watch for Paul Feig (the director of 2016's "Ghostbusters") in an appearance as a dad at the car wash.

thornethomas707 I don't get what people's problem with this movie is. It's a Black Comedy Meaning the humour will be darker then most comedies. The movies name is Bad Teacher For God Sakes! I knew when watching this movie for the first time it was going to be vulgar but that's okay because I'm 23 and I'm of age!Anyways, Cameron Diaz was Hilarious! She played the best I don't care about anything or Anyone kinda woman ever! She was a total obnoxious nightmare. She played it perfectly and I loved it! It was so funny, the whole movie was just so ridiculous and crude! Overall I think it was a great movie and I think the whole point of the movie was to make everyone cry with laughter, I think they accomplished that! It was Hilarious and I personally love movies that don't take themselves to seriously, They make for great times!

Jasee_1971 Let me start by saying that this is the First time I ever write a review – let me repeat: my first review ever! What has led me to write a review on Bad Teacher is very simple. I love it, love it, and love it some more. What's not to love about it? Before I delve into the characters allow me to say this much. The audience have judged the film, forgetting the sheer hard truth: it is a movie folks, nothing more nothing less. It has been made for pure entertainment – and of course it is Rated R. You are not supposed to show children the movie with the objective of teaching them the morals of education, educators, students and everything in-between. I have read most reviews and the feeling I gathered was that people are upset of how Bad Teacher depicts how "being a lazy, unethical teacher" well appears cool and trendy. And as if the movie makers were sanctioning some "bad behavior" from teachers. Well on that standard, we would have to write bad reviews about many, many, and many other movies. Such as the movies that glorify murder, or bank robberies and so on. There are countless movies out there that make murder and torture OK. I'm sure there's many. But what does come to my mind now is "Entrapment" where Catherine Zeta Jones & Sean Connery organize and succeed at robbing major banks, jewels and well whatever. Eventually Jones gets away from stealing from the World Bank in Indonesia during the millennium, like 7billion dollars or more. What about Stallone in Rambo, Cruise in Mission Impossible, Gibson, in lethal weapon? Don't all these movies grant excuses for the murder of people? The list goes on…..The bottom line is, Bad Teacher is funny, entertaining and above all it has heart. Yes indeed, Diaz shows a lot of heart for her students and helps one particular student who is in desperate need. He is mocked by his fellow students for behaving like a dork, yes the way she helps him is somewhat dishonest but don't they say that the end justifies the means? Diaz does a superb job in my opinion. Let's not forget Timberlake, who is so into character that you in fact forget that this is the very cool Timberlake. People, please, I must have seen this film at least ten times and I'm ready to watch it 100 more times, enjoy it, and enjoy it for what it is. Be entertained, it's a film, not a book that is supposed be on your children's curricula in year 10.Of course we are all different and have different tastes – I personally don't enjoy horror and western films. So I can understand and respect opinions that are not in sync. We are all different and like different things. I am saying though, Bad Teacher has been judged for its negative connotations about being a bad teacher. It's a film, it's not real.

Scott-101 The comic set-up of a slacker in an important profession is getting some legs lately with Bad Teacher, Bad Judge, Bad Santa, and Brooklyn Nine Nine (which is essentially "Bad Cop") and why shouldn't it? TV, film and real-life are all inundated with people who take their jobs too seriously, so this is a refreshing charms. The film comes in a phase in Cameron Diaz's career where she was no longer America's hot it girl (her "advanced" age is even referenced in Diaz's other 2011 film "The Green Hornet) and could have fun indulging in her comic persona which generally has a bit of a bite to it. The film can be read as a commentary on Diaz actively rebelling the shorter expiration date for hot film actresses by trying in vain to raise the money for a boob job and attempting to con real life ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake (who likely will not run out of roles 20 years from now) into marrying him. Back when Diaz was known for her supermodel looks and screen presence, her comic gifts were taken for granted which is why this has been such an interesting phase in her career.As for the film itself, while the premise is risqué, the film is in the mold of a classic comedy. It uses the medium well (something movies have to do more and more in this age of TV comedy) by filling up its two hours with nicely outstretched character arcs and big scenes (i.e. the car wash, the field trip). Lucy Punch, Phyllis Smith, John Michael Higgins and the endearing Jason Segel shine strong in supporting parts as well.
