The good:
Julianne Moore plays the awkward teacher perfectly
Never boring
Some funny moments
Cute ending (altho predictable)
The bad:
NONE of the characters are likeable
A major lack of character development
Even with the flaws, I cannot help but like this movie. Would I recommend it? Yes.Wanted to like this movie more as I was looking for a strong comedy to lighten up a boring Saturday. Nathan Lane did not disappoint, and Julienne Moore was great as always. Just wasn't over the top funny.

The writers ruined a perfectly good opportunity to tell a story of a talented playwright who just needed a chance to stage his work.This movie features the kind of lying that injures friendship, destroys family relationships, and induces despair. It portrays a bullying atmosphere in a school, with buffoons for teachers, buffoons for kids, buffoons for parents.
How this miserable, hillbilly saga got off the ground is a testimony to Hollywood's conviction that America is a sick, soiled society. And the actors should be ashamed for not having the moral fabric to KNOW what a bummer of a B movie they were agreeing to act in. Disgusting. Made my flesh creep.

The movie was ok. I felt it was unrealistic and would never happen that way. I have never a teacher like that.Want The English Teacher (2013) Discount?
Great beginning. Some very effective visuals. Fun story with some funny and some interesting moments. So much of the whole picture is telegraphed in the first 15 minutes..but how many swords do you have to fall on to make a point.Glad to see it. Frustrating last half. Good performances by all. Weak ending. Wouldn't recommend.
