Senior Year

Despite being a formulaic cliché, this does have an interesting satirical element. Of course all the tired tropes are there, unrequited love, wonder at technology development and child in a woman's body.

The intriguing part is the stark contrast in sensibilities over twenty years. Naturally it is caricatured for comedic effect, but perhaps we have thrown the baby out with the bathwater. Some horrible practices have been discontinued, but at the expense of sanitising our interactions.

Sadly this social commentary is insufficient to make this a good movie despite the delightful Rebel Wilson. It is mediocre at best, with a weak, stale story, clumsy dialogue and an insurmountable suspension-of-disbelief requirement.

Every modern movie trope piled high into this predictable teen romcom of sorts. However, all that was expected so it comes down to humor and cast. I laughed more than once and acting was decent enough.

Girl goes into a coma just before the end of high school and decides to go and finish it when she wakes up at 37 years old. Lots of attempts to make fun of woke culture yet intentionally reinforces it at the same time, creating many cringe-worthy scenes.

These sorts of comedies can usually be successful by either a great supporting cast (Parnell was wonderful), or an excellent main character, this film mainly missed both marks.

Save for a couple of good laughs, you wouldn't miss anything by skipping this movie. 3/10.

What a cool , simple but really effective feel good movie. The characters are fun , some jokes are brilliant when they go into the political incorrect territory and the whole plot line works because the main actress is awesome.

There's not much to say about this. Initially it feels like another of those terrible high school teenage films but soon we get into some absurd and adult humor that makes the vibe change and this becomes a funny satire about woke which is not afraid to offend everyone and does it with a big smile.

If you don't get offended easily and you have a good sense of humor watch this. If you offend easily , then it's almost mandatory. One of the best feel good movies on Netflix right now.

Just needed an easy no brainer comedy after my week. This ticked the boxes. Couple of tokes, and this movie, made me laugh. Changed the course of my day. Laughter is the best medicine. It's so goofy and unrealistic but so what. It's a simple comedy movie and doesn't pretend to be anything else...which was fine by me.
