To me, this movie is perfection.
Memorable, crazy movie
Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
View MoreMy 10 year old daughter and I both nodded off during this movie. My 8 year old liked it, though. Awful dialog, awful story, awful animation. . . Just awful. I thought it couldn't get much worse than The Cat in the Hat. I was wrong - very wrong. Straight to video would have been too lenient. It should have gone straight to the garbage dump.
View MoreTeacher's Pet.. even the name gives you a small clue. I saw this movie 1/19 (opening date?)? Well, if it was the opening date today, then I was surprised at how empty the theater was, in midday. Anyway, about the movie. Some kids would enjoy the type of humor displayed in the flick. A meager 74 minutes of sometimes suggestive material (you will know what I mean when you see it)...(mostly having to deal with women) and weird, zany humor will attract some but probably make them sick once they try to follow the story. It's just plain 'weird', strange, random, and somehow creative. I can tell you one thing for a fact... I didn't laugh once throughout the whole movie. And that is strange for me. Overall, see it if you have nothing else to do but watch the sometimes meandering, wandering dialogue and plot of 'Teachers Pet'. I am surprised it got a 7 something on the IMDb.
View MoreI watch the cartoon series with my son and think it is great. So we went to the movies hoping for more of the same wit andgreat characters. Sadly, the story was poorly written, the songs were boring and repetitive and the humor was just not there.The voice acting talent for Teachers pet is top notch. It is just sad that they threw together such a sloppy, boring and un-funny script and wasted the chance to make a really great kids movie.
View MoreThis was a VERY funny movie. I took my 11 year-old (did I mention she's pre-adolescent?) daughter and didn't know what to expect. We both laughed SO hard throughout the whole movie! There's a lot of humor both for adults AND kids, so everyone has lots to laugh about. There are subtle and not-so-subtle references to old gag-lines from old movies (well, not SO old), but, most adults will recognize one of the running gag lines in this movie as reminiscent of the first "Airplane!" film. I was VERY pleased there was no bad language or inappropriate stuff. I'm pretty conservative and I got a kick out of all of it. Loved the house number of the Mad Scientist's house!! (I'm not telling!) This movie is played like a Broadway musical -- lots of "let's stop a minute and do a musical number" kind of stuff. It was a hoot, frankly. And VERY well done, I might add! Kudos to the creative team that put this one together. Might we see another soon? Hope so!
