Bad Teacher

Rating: **/*****, or 4/10

Dull and predictable semi-raunchy comedy involving a rude and highly unqualified high school teacher (Cameron Diaz) who finds herself in a financial predicament after the guy she's been leeching money off on dumps her, after which she sets off to sleezily seduce a cute new substitute colleague (Justin Timberlake) who's also fairly wealthy, main tactic being to get a breast job done. She's continuously foiled in her scheme by another, more popular teacher who also has the hots for Timberlake, as well as a gym teacher who's actually in love with the bitchy protagonist for unfathomable reasons. The race is on, as is the attempt to squeeze in a lot of lame titty jokes and general foul language. Of course, the movie gets unsurprisingly moralistic near the climax as Diaz finds out she's a bad person and real love is just around the corner if you look close enough. Been there, done that.
