Senior Year

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.

It happens to everybody. You're young, then you're old. In between is kind of a blur. Did the in-between even happen? I don't know. We were there, now we're here, that's all I know.

Actually, the description of the film reads as a typical cheap entertainment film.

But Rebel Wilson is simply well cast as a 37-year-old who has been in a coma for 20 years.

The story isn't very exciting, and the end is the typical feel good finale.

It's also often illogical, and the actors aren't always convincing, but that's a 5/10 from me.

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.

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.
