Admission

Straitlaced Princeton University admissions officer Portia Nathan is caught off-guard when she makes a recruiting visit to an alternative high school overseen by her former classmate, the freewheeling John Pressman. Pressman has surmised that Jeremiah, his gifted yet very unconventional student, might well be the son that Portia secretly gave up for adoption many years ago.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

A Princeton admissions officer who is up for a major promotion takes a professional risk after she meets a college-bound alternative school kid who just might be the son she gave up years ago in a secret adoption. Despite a talented cast 'Admission' fails to deliver both in script wise since the story is kinda boring and the characters are hollow but also the comedic parts are unfunny and weird and in the end it's a big disappointment of a movie.

Directed by Paul Weitz, "Admission" stars Tina Fey as Portia Nathan, an Admissions Officer at Princeton University. Portia's highly ordered world comes crashing down when she pays a visit to the Quest School, a small facility which uses unconventional teaching methods to educate children. Here she meets Jeremiah Balakian, a child prodigy who may or may not be her long lost son.At its best, "Admission" contrasts the elitism of Princeton with the humble "holistic" practices of Quest, gives Tina Fey a chance to sink her teeth into a rare dramatic role and touches upon the sad, biological yearnings of mothers. Working better as a drama than a romantic comedy - Fey, primarily a comedian, handles the film's last act tragedies very well - the film co-stars the always awesome Lily Tomlin, and a puppy-dog faced Paul Rudd.7.9/10 – Worth one viewing.

How do you not like a movie with the always likable Tina Fey and Paul Rudd cast as the leads? Well, Admission gives us plenty of reason to try.The plot is contrived and the dramatic tension just does not exist. However, because of the solid effort by the leads, good performances by supporting cast (even though Lily Tomlin is a little too over the top), and nicely shot scenes, you probably will leave the movie with a slightly favorable impression although you also probably wish they had done more with all that this movie had going for it.So if you need an OK movie (not bad, not great), and a little harmless attempt at romance, and humorous situations without any laugh-out-loud moments, this would be your choice.
