Review of Admission (2013) by Tvjerry — 27 Mar 2013
The movie's title has several meanings and that's part of the problem. Too much earnest message and not enuff laffs. Tina Fey plays an admissions officer at Princeton, who is solicited by a teacher (Paul Rudd) to consider a special student.
Fey is the comic core of this film. When she's being awkward, she's funny. The emotional stuff…not so much. I'm a big fan of Rudd, but this isn't one of his most charming performances. Overall, there are laughs, but the leanings toward heartfelt dilute the comedy.
