"Bad Teacher" Reviewed (More Or Less)

"Bad Teacher" has Cameron Diaz in the titular role, a gold digger whose rich fiance dumps her and she is forced to return to the school she had just resigned from. Convinced a pair of big fake breast will help her bag a rich boyfriend she does everything from steal test scores to a car wash to pay for them.

There are two men in her life, the gym teacher Jason Segel and Justin Timberlake as a slumming it substitute teacher.

The entire mess has been edited with a cleaver and includes the most humiliating moment in Justin and Cameron's career, when he dry humps her (why? No idea, the cleaver at work again).

The movie is a disaster, the soundtrack is OK, especially Rockpile's "Teacher Teacher" over the opening credits as well as ok heavy metal by folks like Ronnie Dio and Whitesnake. Oh, and Justin is funny rhyming "Simpatico" with "lunatico" in an acoustic moment.

Anything else? Cameron is hot in the car wash scene.
