Description

"Bad Education" is a 2019 black comedy-drama film directed by Cory Finley. The movie is based on the true story of the largest public school embezzlement scandal in American history, which took place in the Roslyn School District in Long Island, New York. The film follows the story of Frank Tassone, the superintendent of the school district, and his assistant superintendent, Pam Gluckin, as they carry out a scheme to steal millions of dollars from the district's budget.

The film stars Hugh Jackman as Tassone, and Allison Janney as Gluckin, with supporting roles from Ray Romano and Geraldine Viswanathan. The movie premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2019, and was later released on the streaming platform HBO.

"Bad Education" was praised for its sharp writing, strong performances, and deft handling of the sensitive subject matter. The film explores themes of corruption, ambition, and the consequences of unchecked power. It serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency and accountability in public institutions, and the dangers of blindly trusting those in positions of authority.

Before the Jackass 3D film begins, there is a brief introduction involving Beavis and Butt-head, where there is a reference to the 3D technology used in the film. The opening sequence shows all of the cast while they are hit by various objects in slow motion. As most of the stunts in the film were filmed with a camcorder Panthom on a very high speed (1000 frames per second) there is lots of the must-see moments. Jackass 3D, like its predecessors (Jackass: The Movie, Jackass Number Two, Jackass 2.5), has no real plot. It's just a continuation, the most dangerous stunt performed by the characters and jokes are taken from the MTV's Jackass TV series. Among the numbers in the dangerous stunts there is a tether ball, played with a hive full of bees African, a tooth being extracted with a Lamborghini, the use of a special glue to rip off the hairs from the chest and much more. The final stunt showcases Steve-O launched inside a portable toilet using the banjo jumping ropes. The final sequence was made with a technique quite similar to the starting one, but in this case the viewer relates a series of explosions in slow motion and at the end of it, a flood is simulated with the cast that is completely submerged. Just as in the last two films, Rip Taylor makes announcing the end of the film before you see the credits. During the end credits there are some MTV series' scenes TV show are shown accompanying with the old photographs of the cast. Everything ends up with cast members singing Memories, an official single from the Jackass 3D movie.
