The Bad Education Movie (2015)

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

I'm not that big a fan of the original BE show. The first season I love, the second is okay and the third is down right terrible. But of course theres a movie. Now I had very, VERY low expectations before going into the movie and Im not disappointed at all because it was as mediocre as I thought it would be. While the acting is fine, the directing fine and the editing and music is much better than the show and the main characters are better written in this movie than season two or three. Those are the only positives I can give this movie. The movie didnt have any funny or original moments or jokes and was very perdictable. The main characters like Alfie and Joe are better in this movie than the show, this movie introduces many new side characters that completely ruin alot of scenes. Like Joe's mum. Yes, shes meant to be unlikable but she just ruined every scene she was in and was just so boring and painful to watch. There are many forgettable scenes in this film and all the scenes are really predictable and unfunny. Ive seen this films scenes and jokes so many times in other mediocre comedy movies. The story has been used alot in other tv shows and movies and as I've said does nothing new or original. None of the music is memorable but is less annoying and repetative than it was in the original show. So basically while it is edited, directed and acted well enough the rest of the film is just plain bad. Unfunny, predictable, boring and badly written film. I do not recommend.

Why do people make films like this? I am a fan of Jack Whitehall in small doses, but 90 minutes? No. I actually only watched the first 15 minutes, then turned it off, it was that predictable and terrible. It was possibly one of the worst films I thankfully didn't watch. I guessed it was about an mis-stood teacher who has an amazing connection with his students and gets them to over perform, like that film with Robin Williams and Matt Damon, only without the talent, quality acting or screen writing. What was that film called? It was way better. I am now watching The Intern with Anne Hathaway and Robert De Nero, and I'm over 15 minutes in and I have no plans to turn it off. Do yourself a favour watch something else, anything else. In fact watch Jack on TV, but not his stand up or his TV show, just watch when he's a guest.

Walked out after 50 minutes...could not stand any more of this muck. I hope it isn't shown outside Britain , it would make all the good work British movies have done a waste of time.Not even funny enough to be juvenile.Tries so hard to be in bad taste but is not anywhere clever enough to attempt it.Not 1 redeeming moment here. What on earth Harry Enfield thinks he's doing in this kind of rubbish is beyond me..he must be skint.Jack Whiteall is about as funny and talented as a dose of earache. Only the second movie I have ever walked out on in over 40 years..the other being Hot Tub Time Machine2.IF i could I would give it a 0.To make things worse there was a few morons laughing at this.Very angry on leaving the cinema..cannot find enough bad things to say about this drivel so end.

Anarchic high school teacher Alfie, denied the opportunity to take his class of misfits on a school trip to Las Vegas has to settle for Cornwall, accompanied by PTA mother Susan who is determined to get him fired. As if that wasn't bad enough, the Cornish Liberation Army use him as a figurehead for armed revolution to liberate Cornwall from England.This British comedy is full of crude, silly, infantile humour and bad language. It is also pretty funny. Co-written by, and starring Jack Whitehall 9and spun off from a TV series) it is worth explaining that Whitehall is primarily a TV comedy performer, much of whose humour derives from the contrast between his terribly well brought up accent and his tendency to descend into sometimes horrifying crudeness. And that pretty much underpins this film – you get a fair amount of Whitehall's (no doubt prosthetic) scrotum, and a couple of brief glimpses of his (I suspect not prosthetic) penis – it's that sort of film. It's also often quite amusing, albeit the Cornwall Liberation element of the plot is a bit of a trial.It's not a great film, but I quite enjoyed its tasteless humour. Whitehall can take a joke at his own expense, which is a quality I like.
