Bottoms (2023)
1/10
Only because I can't give zero ...

Warning: Spoilers
This film is truly and spectacularly offensive in so many ways. Apart from just the general insult to the viewer's intelligence, it tries soooo hard to be the next edgy and shocking comedy in the style of Superbad and the like. The trouble is that it just overshoots the mark and Perrin and I were pretty much completely turned off the film within the first 5 or 10 minutes with the over-the-top offensive language and behaviour.

It doesn't improve from there either. The story is stupid. The sheer neglect of teachers to the violence in the movie is utterly ridiculous. There's not even a chuckle raised in this so-called comedy.

The less said about it the better ... but I was surprised to read afterwards that Marshawn Lynch played the teacher. His performance was pretty bad - as you would expect - but then all the performances were bad so ....

07/100.
