Last night, against my personal wishes, I went to a showing of Bad Teacher with Darion, Josh and David and, I’m actually surprised to say, it was actually a pretty fun night. Bad Teacher is nowhere near the best movie of the year and, to be honest, I wouldn’t even call it a great movie … but it’s pretty good and much better than I was expecting. For the most part, the film was pretty predictable but, try as I might, I couldn’t resist laughing out loud once or twice. Bad Teacher wasn’t a good movie, necessarily … but it also isn’t a terrible movie.
I was really surprised by how much I liked Cameron Diaz in this flick. I can’t say that I’m a big fan of most of her movies but she really holds her own as the lead in Bad Teacher. Her comic timing could use a bit of work but all in all … she wasn’t bad. Justin Timberlake, on the other hand, was pretty terrible. His character was pretty crappy and that’s a large part of why I disliked him in the film but even more importantly, I just don’t find him funny. He tries, bless his heart but … no, he’s not good in this film. Jason Segel, I’m sorry to say, was pretty forgettable. I was hoping his character would turn out better than it did but, alas … it did not. Instead the break-out star is Lucy Punch who plays Amy Squirrel. Her character was irritating as the “villain” but Punch played her perfectly. Again, I wasn’t really wowed at all by Bad Teacher but as far as a fun night out at the movies with friends … it was suitable.
Tonight, David and I will be meeting up with our friends Darion and Woody at the Staples Center to see Rihanna in concert! Tonight should be a blast … cannot wait!! Happy Tuesday!
