While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

This movie looks like it is going to be a teen sex comedy, but it really surprised me how seriously it took itself. It actually works to be a drama, and some of it is actually effective.You can't really blame me for being misled--the presence of Christopher McDonald alone seems to suggest an off-the-wall sense of humor. But even he plays it straight in a story that has one foot in a teen fantasy, and several feet in Degrassi-style soap opera.The plot revolves around a high school kid who gets a math tutor who happens to not only be an attractive woman, but the wife of his math teacher. His performance in the math class is given special importance because the instructor apparently had enough pull to help the kid get into a prestigious college. He ends up having an inappropriate relationship with the tutor, almost costing him two friendships and the college recommendation. The climax comes when he finally gets an admissions interview at Harvard and realizes he is not sure it is what he really wants. In the end, he learns a lesson and gets his life back in order. His two best friends are still talking to him, although he now has a platonic relationship with his ex-girlfriend. I thought Tia looked really cute in this movie, but none of the performances or humor really moved me. I thought the Jeffery Tambor character worked WAY too hard at being senstive and understanding while still having high expectations. He made me squirm. I was especially disappointed that Christopher McDonald didn't have any good lines. I didn't dislike this movie, I just don't think I will watch it again.

This movie holds true to many people remember those high school days in which many of us teenage boys had a crush on certain female teachers we liked. Change it some put yourself in the shoes of a struggling calculus student who has his tough teacher climbing his neck and dreams of a college scholarship about to go in flames. Never fear an accident meeting with the sexy Tia Carrere who later turns out to be his teacher's wife! Not only does Tia take the young student through winning calculus training but a passionate romance develops. Only when the student has his teacher find out it all ends and a life lesson is learned and back to normal life. This movie shows that our fantasies can come true but they don't last and we must live our basic life. I watched this movie on USA one night late though it's not a great movie it's good due to the story and the beautiful Tia Carrere.

Are you tired of all those boring,stupid,and completly insipid movies about teenagers? I know I am. But I wholeheartedly recommend "My Teacher's Wife", which is a sweet little slice-of life tale about a high school senior (well played by Jason London, in the best performance he has ever given.), who falls in love with the wife (Tia Carrere) of his calculas teacher (a wonderfully detestable Christopher Mc Donald.)It may sound trashy,but it is excellently done and very insightful on friendship and matters of the heart.I think this movie is an underrated gem and the best teen comedy I have ever seen.

This undemanding comedy has some good moments, but in the end, it's a forgettable film. This movie certainly was fun at times, but the story was ordinary and not particularly original. The reasonably well-known cast does a pretty good job, but the script didn't provide them with an abundance of good material. So, I suppose this is a decent choice the next time that you want to see a film, but I still urge you to look for something better.
