  Number 3 off pile of crap. Tried to watch this some time ago and failed. However, as it is only comedy on pile and didn't feel like thinking too much today, this was it. Well, it hasn't improved since my last failed attempt. This is really pretty weak stuff. I can see that they have tried to do a pitch black satire, but it really hasnt worked at all. A film is in trouble when the best thing in it is the child actors (yes, that coming from me!). They are actually pretty good, while the adults such as Jason Biggs and Eva Longoria fail to convince. A few small smiles but pretty sure I didn't laugh once here. Only watch it if you really have to!

  The cast is star studded, with 2 big names, <i>Eva Longoria</i> and <i>Jason Biggs</i> playing leading roles in a satirical movie about failing education. This movie aimed to hit the higher targets. Yet, through a series of dead-end, awkward jokes and innuendos, this movie failed to even meet the lower targets. With poor storyline, poor execution, and poor (or rather, non-existent) acting from the cast, this film is destined to be a disaster. The plot lacked sequence and organisation. With figures of around $2m of budget, one would think that the movie can be something better, but unfortunately it was not the case. The only saving grace is <i>Jason Biggs</i>, who have changed his character from being a nutter in his previous movies, to somebody who can give substance and impact to the movie. As for <i>Eva Longoria</i>, I think she acted better in her previous movie <b>Over Her Dead Body</b> and I hope she chooses her character carefully before committing herself. This movie only gains any credibility through the children's credible and compelling performances. Perhaps this movie would have been better with an entirely child based crew working on its production, like a more updated idea of <i>Bugsy Malone</i>. All in all, not the best movie around and not a good movie, as the movie is aptly called. <b>Lower Learning</b> is as titled, lower learning.

  This is a satirical film about our failing education system but it's not as funny or enjoyable as I thought it would be. Cute little kid actors but I was expecting more from Jason Briggs and Eva Longoria. I would give this one a miss.

  When a school is on the brink of collapse pretty much do the fact that there are low test scores the teachers are drunk and pretty much dont care to teach and the principal is taken bribes from parents a young vice principal decides to take him down and take back the school. Starring Jason Biggs this is a ok to pretty good comedy with some really over the top scenes worth a watch for fans of the newer kinda slapstick comedy out there
