Secondary Education

About This Movie

Secondary Education is this curious blend of high school antics and offbeat action that really caught my attention. The story follows three students stuck in detention, trying to cram for a chemistry test—been there, right? But then there's this twist: their teacher, Eugene Yamamoto, is donning a Power Ranger suit, fighting crime on the side. The pacing has a nice rhythm; it balances the school drama with unexpected action sequences. The performances are surprisingly engaging, especially the chemistry teacher—he’s both eccentric and endearing. Practical effects are used in a way that feels nostalgic, almost like an homage to those Saturday morning shows. It’s not your typical high school film, and that’s what makes it distinctive. A real oddity in a sea of conventional cinema.
