Bad Teacher
Blu Ray
Bad Teacher is a smart, well-acted comedy that entertains despite its limitations.

The color palette of the comedy is vibrant with richly-saturated primary and bold secondary hues, imparting a lively and warm visual experience.
The film's audio design creates a convincing space with lively reverb in a school dance scene, outshining the rest, while offering a pleasingly active and ambient experience throughout.
Explore the main characters' depths with 'Jams Yearbook -- Hidden Moments' in 1080p, an interactive experience from the DVD including R-rated or unrated options.
Screenwriters Stupnitsky and Eisenberg fuse characters' facades with deep motives, except for the poised Elizabeth, in a world where educators daringly defy norms.

Plot: A lazy, incompetent middle school teacher who hates her job, her students, and her co-workers is forced to return to teaching to make enough money for breast implants after her wealthy fiancé dumps her.
