Hugh Jackman gives a great performance in Bad Education as the superintendent of schools who has overseen a dramatic improvement in academic performance. Allison Janney is his sidekick. The two are riding high until a student reporter starts digging into school expenses, and uncovers an embezzlement scheme that shocks the community. The story is based on a real-life scandal, and it plays out in entertaining fashion as we learn about what has been going on behind the backs of the school board, and the depth of the corruption. This one was pretty good, but it's shocking that it really happened.
