The Perfect Teacher (2010)

watched this movie a few years back and loved it, forgot about it till now, but i will be watching it again. amazing story line, well made. keeps the viewer on the edge of their seat, the twist and turns in this movie are exactly like a roller coaster, i saw this movie in 2011, and i was 13 at the time, maybe a little too young too watch the movie at some parts, but i still loved it. i was never bored during it, like some movies where you want too turn it off, which has happened before. but i think yes, i would see this movie over and over and it by far one of my favourite movies, right beside sixteen candles. and i love the main characters name. Devon i think is how you spell it.

I just watched this film on Lifetime & I could already predict everything about it. The basic synopsis is a teenage girl falls for her teacher from school & after a while becomes obsessed with him & goes to enormous measures to make him hers. Megan Park does a pretty good job at playing the alluring villain, but like I said, it's been done before. This film was so much like The Crush (the film with Alicia Silverstone from 1993) that it lacked very little surprises or suspense & very well could have been called The Crush 2. But, as I said before, this film, even though predictable, is still rather enjoyable with some pretty good acting & is a good way to waste a couple hours in front of the TV, just don't expect very many surprises in this Made for TV thriller.

Let me start off by saying the script was so uneven and impractical that I had a hard time believing any of it. That a teacher (coach) with training could not see through the psycho's motivations is beyond me. She was that obvious. That a student be allowed to wear the clothes she almost wore (they were that awful, revealing and lewd). That the police were not on top of the hit and run car that killed the ex wife. That they did not check the bimbo out who claimed she was raped at a hospital for evidence and DNA. Isn't that the first thing done before they take the word of a teeny bop-per? I could go on with all the inadequacies in this story. But adding to that is the horrible performance of Megan Park, the so called teenager. (She looked in her late 20s) Wearing clothes that did nothing but point out her physical shortcomings. Flat chested and hips that were wider than her shoulders. Wearing black showed this up to the hilt. Even a padded bra and corset still made her flat chested. Lip gloss, too much eye makeup and long clumpy legs in shoes that did not flatter her. Her acting was just as bad. Phony and not very interesting. David Charvet had more to do and did it well. He is a good actor and a shame he's doing this dreadful film. He did the best he could. And you could see he was uncomfortable with the bimbo. Boti Bliss did what she could as well in a small unrewarding role. Amanda Tlson had more screen time and did her best and looked like a teenager. Christine Conradt wrote this drivel and Jim Donovan spent too much time filming the leading lady. She was in almost every scene and this is what killed the movie in this viewer's eyes.

*hint minor spoilers First I'd like to say intercourse with a minor is totally inappropriate. And also, very illegal. It can get you in a heck of a lot of trouble! moving on, I find it hard to believe that this handsome young teacher could resist her this easily, and also that he believes in his total innocence that he didn't lead her on in any way at all.Because he kind of did. In real life she's not really a minor, she's 24 which is fine, I thought she was really attractive. Reminds me of the crush, she has the same hard to resist beauty as alicia silverstone.Personally, I found the movie great until the end , when she starts killing people. If you really love someone , you would not want to hurt them, by hurting the things or people that they care about . Like if you truly love someone you want them to be happy, even if it's not with you. But it's for entertainment sakes yes i understand, for suspense she has to be really crazy!! When in truth, in probably does happen in real life. I'm sure a lot of teenage girls find mature older men a catch.I find it interesting to watch her attempts, because it reality a man couldn't brush her off that easily, and without hurting her emotionally for sure. But you do have to she's a minor! But she's your friend dawg, why is it when she came onto him he didn't even reason with her psh. Hollywood.But a good movie I found it a good watch great script and acting. Megan Park is a very beautiful and attractive young lady to be remembered for sure!
