The Bad Education Movie

source: The Bad Education Movie

A fair to middling comedy which I think will resonate more with the 13-25s I've never been a massive jack Whitehall fan but my son's were so I watched this and had a few giggles along the way but its the superb cast that provides the laughter. Note I copy and pasted for the t.v. series and film cos it's the same except the movie got a lower mark of 6

I think this movie will mostly suit the fans of the TV show ,the humour is pretty dumb and trashy and some will find this movie as a garbage. I discovered that this movie is based on a TV show only after I've finished watching.

I Watched this movie without expectation. It was Good Movie from my point of view. I was Expecting this movie bad but after watching this it was good enough to watch for one time movie. its graphics have color popping and the direction and camera angle were shoot like a pro Some of the Game of Throne Joke was good I usually don't write the review but I Saw many of the people hate this movie just because this movie didn't matched their taste of their movie I can't understand what people think before watching the movie It's a comedy movie first watch the trailer then watch the movie

TV show was brilliant, love Jack but this was a pretty movie.

The Bad Education Movie is a big screen spin off from the BBC comedy. It starts off with incompetent and infantile teacher Alfie taking his misfit kids to Anne Frank's House in Amsterdam but after accidentally taking some magic mushrooms he ends up embarrassing himself. A year later his plans to take the kids to Vegas but has to settle for Cornwall. He is accompanied by parent/teacher rep Susan, ,other of one of the pupils who is recording everything on Google Glass in order to gather information of his misbehaviour so he can be fired. Alfie gets mixed up with the Cornish Liberation Army who use him to cause anarchy, he also meets up with his old public school chums who bully and taunt him like they used to at school. The film is crude and silly like the television series. There are enough bad taste jokes to keep teenage kids laughing although the film after a bright opening in Amsterdam runs out of steam towards the end.

Watched the TV series and really enjoyed it. Watched the movie and it didn't disappoint. It really is stupid but if you like enjoy this type of purile British comedy (like me) then you'll enjoy this. You'll laugh, get mildly emotional and cringe (a lot). Overall one of the best spin off movies I've seen.

This movie is funny, though I recommend watching the series first, which may even be necessary to actually enjoy the movie. The movie in short: The class goes on a trip but of course, nothing goes as expected. Since the series has many more or less deep characters, the movie cannot compete in terms of character development. While the series contains on average 6 episodes per season at roughly half an hour (way too short for its quality in my opinion), the movie has to cope with introducing the various students and teachers within the first part of the movie. I am not sure if that is enough to really "understand" the situation/background story at "Abbey Grove". The characters may seem a little flat/stereotypical if one has not yet seen the series. Granted, "form K" pretty much has a member of every socio-demographic (?) group in it that I could think of of the top of my head. This makes the series more interesting, may seem a little forced to be funny in the movie. Regarding the humor in the movie, it is exactly what you would expect after watching the series. It is about the same level of sometimes beneath the belt but makes you laugh more often than cringe. Personally I am pretty happy with the movies ending. As most people may have experienced, it is an awful feeling when a series that one has really enjoyed watching comes to a close and leaves a feeling of emptiness. "The bad education movie" fills the void that the series left perfectly and at least for me, gives the whole story a finish that I can live and close that chapter with. I did enjoy the series more than the movie, though it is still a movie I'd recommend.

I was expecting good things from this movie as I'm a bit fan of Jack Whitehall. This was disappointing by the atrocious acting. I would have preferred it more if he was a student rather than teacher. They should of added more depth with some of the other characters and a back story. Best to watch this movie with low expectations. Not the worst movie I've seen and I wouldn't recommend it unless there is nothing else to watch. Better to watch is travel shows or stand up.

STAR RATING: ***** Saturday Night **** Friday Night *** Friday Morning ** Sunday Night * Monday Morning Alfie Wickers (Jack Whitehall) is a comprehensive school teacher who sets the worst example to his already rowdy students. Following some magic mushroom induced madness whilst visiting the Anne Frank museum, he pushes his luck even further by suggesting a class trip to Las Vegas. He is forced to settle for Cornwall, but this fails to stop him paragliding through the Eden Project whilst naked from the waist down, rattling the locals, and eventually getting caught up in a militant liberation plot against a Conservative councillor. I was really just in the mood for a laugh with this one, as I'd actually never watched the series or, to be honest, anything much to do with Jack Whitehall. So it was one I skipped in the theatres, but eventually rolled around to seeing on DVD. Even without having watched any of the show, it still seems clear that it's had an awkward transition to the big screen, struggling to really hold together as a feature length plot as opposed to an hour long episode. That said, at under an hour and a half, it hardly drags on, and as a series of comedic set pieces and sequences, it more than serves its purpose. It's the sort of thing people, especially fans of the series, are more than ready to sharpen the knives for, but it must surely have the same effect as the show? ***
