Review of Bad Education (2019) by Jluis_001 — 30 Apr 2020

The film walks a fine line between satire and drama when addressing its theme but manages to balance it in a good way, above all avoiding turning its characters into clichés or monsters, after all, their motives are simple: greed and entitlement and it's because when the money is within reach, the corrupt will always exist and they will always have their excuses rooted in those precise topics, greed and entitlement.

This is indeed a small film that stands out with the help of Hugh Jackman and Allison Janney's names and of course it's more solid because of them. And while there's barely anything new to learn from a story like this. Bad Education is as a matter of fact a pretty entertaining film.
