Alright, considering how Bad Teacher received 47% on Metacritic and 44% on R.T, I think it's time I started a forum for our members.
Take it away, ya Razzheads!

It's not the 1990s any more, and there are hotter actresses than Cameron Diaz these days. However, no matter who stars in this movie, it's still just a direct to DVD quality movie that some how got a theater release.

It was directed by Jake Kashan, doesn't smell like direct to DVD material to me.

I just saw it...
While it wasn't a great movie, it was somewhat better than I was expecting...

I saw the movie. It wasn't that bad but it wasn't good either. It was funny for me though, I had good laugh. I think Cameron Diaz is a funny actress.

Like who?
Jessica Alba? Megan Fox? Olivia Wilde? Do you think ANY of them could open a movie at $31MIL+? The answer would be NO, Michaels (that also goes for Julia Roberts at this point)...

By "hot" you mean "sexy" or "popular"?I've got the feeling you guys are talking about different things.

The good:
Justin Timberlake: Timberlake's shown himself to be an admirable actor. He's one of the few bright-spots here.
Jason Segal: Segal's pretty funny, but his role is under-written. Hopefully, The muppets will be a better fit.
The bad:
Cameron Diaz: She's not very good at acting and she looks like Jack Nicholsen as the Joker.
Lucy Punch: She's been in a lot of not-so-good movies lately (i.e. Dinner For Schmucks, Take Me Home Tonight) and this is no different. I list her here mainly because she reminds me of this dentist who I used to have who treated me like I was five. I should mention that I had a mustache at the time. The point being, she annoyed me.
The ugly:
The "edgyness": For a movie that wants to be Bad Santa with boobs, this is pretty tame. With a movie like this, you have to make the character somewhat sympathetic while ratcheting up the darkness. Here, it lays flat, as the movie doesn't want to make people too uncomfortable.
Grade: C+
Next-up: Beastly
Also, I'll be updating my worst of the year picks to have more picks so people will get the gist of what I think was terrible.

Oh good! I'm glad I'm not the only who's noticed that Miss Diaz's mouth/smile has grown to a freakishly large size over the past few years. It has become quite the turn off ... along with her relationship with A-Roids...er, I mean A-Rod.

The fact that you thought Justin Timber(weak)link was better than both Cameron Diaz AND esp. Lucy Punch in Bad Teacher makes me question your credibility (your hatred of Schumacher notwithstanding). And if you think Ms. Diaz is hard to look at and no good at acting, you must REALLY hate Julia Roberts, who was her usual dead-fish self in Larry Crowne...

Julia Roberts makes Cameron Diaz look like Amy Adams, in terms of acting AND looks. Her Oscar win was a sham: Joan Allen, Juliette Binoche, Ellen Burstyn, and Laura Linney gave better performances than her.
Also, judging from your opinion of Justin Timberlake, I'm pretty sure that you haven't seen Alpha Dog. Say what you will about the movie, but Timberlake was great in it. He was the lone bright spots in such afronts-to-God such as The Love Guru and Southland Tales, which I'll get to on Tuesday. Also, he's one of the few singers today who doesn't make me wish an air-plane engine from the future would fall on me when I listen to him.

1)You don't like Amy Adams?
2)Let's not forget SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE.And THE SOCIAL NETWORK.Well,the latter wasn't a great performance,but it's a good example he's not just another musician turned actor that sucks but continues to act for the wrong reasons.

I meant that Julia Roberts (unattractive and untalented) makes Cameron Diaz (slightly less unattractive and untalented) look like Amy Adams (beautiful and talented).
I forgot about him in The Social Network. I choose Alpha Dog because that was his first movie that I saw. I, also, forgot to mention that he did a good Boo-Boo impression in Yogi Bear.

Justin Timberlake will forever be the little kid from NSYNC to me, but I must admit, he has become quite the good actor over the years. And Cameron Diaz is not hot any more. Amy Adams could have easily played this role. Anyone who says she can't act and can't play sexy after seeing "The Fighter" has lost yheir mind!
