Review of The Substitute (1996) by Dave H — 16 Sep 2006
Tom Berenger was good, especially with his interaction with the students, but the movie was not that great when it comes to action. Shale's wife was ugly and annoying. The acting and writing was mostly crap when it wasn't Berenger.
The idea for this movie was a good one though. I just think it could've been done better. Oh yeah, Gary Chang's score was one of the most negative factors of the movie. I expected better from him after his incredibly excellent "Island of Dr.
Moreau" score and even Under Siege's medicore score that still actually meshed with the movie and complemented it.
