Film Review – Driver’s Ed

2026 is the year of dueling Farrelly Brother projects. Last month saw the release of “Balls Up,” where Peter Farrelly attempted to launch a raunchy good time with a project that combined the usual in R-rated Farrelly humor with World Cup-themed shenanigans. It was an awful picture. Now Bobby Farrelly tries his luck with “Driver’s Ed,” which also hopes to launch a raunchy good time minus a soccer world setting, switching things over to the tenderness of the teen heart and the wonders of a road trip premise. Thomas Moffett is credited as the screenwriter on the project, but the whole endeavor plays just like every Farrelly production, supplying wackiness and sudden sensitivity, while constant profanity is meant to offer edge to a thoroughly unmemorable film. However, it’s better than “Balls Up,” giving Bobby a victory with his slightly less labored attempt to revisit the 1990s. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
