The film starts with Elizabeth Halsey, the Bad Teacher, quitting the profession after finishing her 1st year to get married and live happily ever after.
Short film.
Unfortunately things don’t quite go to plan, as the pesky mother-in-law-to-be stops the wedding, just because Lizy has no interest in her fiancé other than his wallet.
Very bad.
Not because Lizy deserved to live happily ever after, far, far from it. No, this is awful because it means another class of school kids must now suffer a year of Elizabeth.
The plot then focuses on Lizy trying to raise enough money to raise enough cup sizes to raise enough interest in a man wealthy enough to raise her, while obviously being an awful teacher.
It’s not a dreadful film, but it does suffer from what appears to be an increasingly common illness in films latterly:
No Likable Characters Syndrome
Obviously, from the title, Elizabeth was set to be a bit of a waste of space, but did they really have to try to make every other character even less likable just to get us on her side?
In summary : ...bleh?
