Bad Teacher is telling you about Elizabeth Halsey, a not-really-good teacher from junior high who is just dumped by her fiancé. She planned to do a boob job to get a richer and handsome guy. Her eyes get into Scott Delacorte, a new teacher with nerd look there. To win his heart she has to deal with her teaching schedule, her students, earn money for her surgery and competing with her energetic colleague, Amy Squirrel by doing everything she can.

Hilarious! That is the first word that came out on my mind after watched first ten minutes of Bad Teacher. The jokes are so funny. One of my favorite is about ‘Twilight boy’. You can find it in the trailer. Though most of the jokes lead to adult thing, I think I still can handle that. But it really took time for me to finish it. Glad that I still tried and finished it. If Indonesian movie makers want to make a sex-comedy movie, why they not try to make something like this? It is a bit explicit but smart and fresh.

Cameron Diaz is so amazing in here. Not only about her acting but also the way she handled and her tolerances to work with her ex-boyfriend, Justin Timberlake. She is so professional. Unfortunately her appearance here is not really beautiful for me. Those eyeliners and red lipstick made her looks drunk (well her character loves to drink and drug much) and older. And something interesting here is her characters. Elizabeth is a ‘bad guy’. She is not afraid to do anything for earn money more even she lies or make someone else hurts. But she actually wins at the end. Woow :o

For everyone of you who wants to watch a movie like this, let me give you an advice. You can take it or not is up to you. Check the Parents Guide in IMBD before you watch it. It maybe gives you some spoiler about the movie but what the difference between trailer and that? I have an experience with this movie. Maybe it is not a big deal for you all but not with me. Not because it is a fasting month but also because I am a girl. There are some scenes about a woman body. I think you get more curious that before ;p

My favorite scene is when one of Elizabeth’s students confesses his feeling for his classmate. It kinda romantic yet silly. Hmm, monkey love ;). And also I like the way this movie tells about being a teacher. It not pictured it perfectly and not always in right way but I appreciate it. Why is it so? Because teachers are one of profession that not really notices here :o

At last, Bad Teacher is gonna make you LOL! Watch it with friends is making it more fun but remember my advice. And one thing, I like the ending, I really am :)
