Leigh Ann Watson (Katie Holmes) is the brightest girl and Grandsboro High, but her dreams of a much-needed college scholarship are sabotaged when her history teacher, the dreaded Mrs. Tingle (Helen Mirren), falsely accuses her of cheating. Desperate to prove her innocence, Leigh Ann conspires with her friends Luke and Jo Lynn on a scheme that will teach Mrs. Tingle a lesson of her own. Before they know it, however, their plan spins hilariously out of contol...and becomes an endless comedy of errors. (StudioCanal UK)

I really liked Helen Mirren as the terrifying battleaxe from whom students and teachers alike recoil in terror. I didn't even mind that her character was such an exaggerated caricature... Actually, not only hers - the three students who take her to the laundry were doubly true. But it's a pity that when it came to intrigue, psychological tricks, twists and similar delicacies, I didn't believe almost anything about Teaching Mrs. Tingle.
