The Wrong Teacher

I've mentioned in other reviews how movies with student/teacher intimate relationships are uninteresting and overdone. This one is no exception and the story is predictable, right down to the main character not alerting law enforcement when she finds out damning information about this student.

I really love how the doors to this school are wide opened at night time and that there's no security guard or cameras to catch any mischievous behavior. And this vice principal must be the biggest idiot to just let his suspicions about this teacher slide.

I don't mind a movie that can make me laugh, despite how poorly constructed the dialogue is. In that sense, bravo Lifetime.

Surprisingly this one is quite enjoyable and plausible. With all the student teacher liaisons recently it's timely. The story is a teacher sleeps with a younger guy she meets in a bar. Unknown to her he turns out to be her new student. She ought to have known from the creepy smile. Jessica Morris is the teacher. Eric Roberts and Vivica Fox are supporting characters.

Things unfold quite plausible without getting too ridiculous like some of these TV Thrillers.

Worth a watch.

This movie was unintentionally hilarious. All the bad movie cliches you can think of - they're here. Lots of LOLs.

Jessica Morris who has to start teaching the next day high school English as the fall semester starts had a spat with boyfriend artist Jason Shane Scott. So she's feeling frisky and picks up Tom Cruise lookalike Philip McElroy. I mean the Tom Cruise we knew back in Risky Business.

The next day she discovers he's in her class and that starts all kinds of trouble. Of course McElroy has some issues, in his case issues of abandonment as you'll see in the film.

I hope Tom Cruise sees how much McElroy resembles and they're cast as father and son.

Otherwise put this one in the exploitive trash column.

Terrible script, a plain glass window is less transparent than the plot, the acting is wooden (except for Eric Roberts. I guess he needed the money). The characters are straight-up dumb. Basically, the best part of this train wreck of a film are the closing credits.
