Senior Year

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.

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.

I'm not the biggest Rebel Wilson fan but because I couldn't find anything new to watch I decided to give it a shot. When all said and done it was actually pretty funny. Some of the dialouge had my busting up laughing. I'm glad I decided to give it a chance. It was definitely worth a watch. 6 stars.

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.

If you are a child of the 90s you'll love the references. Rebel Wilson is charming and silly. The plot is totally unexceptional and predictable. There's also plenty of political messaging that you'd expect from any movie these days.
