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

JFC what did I watch? What was the point? How did this get greenlit?? Honestly, if you're looking for a movie to watch and make fun of while drinking with friends then this is great for that. Otherwise... wth was this?

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. There hasn't been a time when I have seen Rebel Wilson and not wanted to puke. I know she would have some talent, but I always find her insufferable and repulsive. This movie is no different. I had hoped from the promos that I would enjoy it DESPITE Wilson, but all one gets is stupid caricatures, objectively obscene dance routines that are all the more disgusting because of you know who, and a muddled message which basically advocates overt sexualization of kids including a mental teen complaining about her boobs to her father. On point for Netflix then! Also: the acting performances are over the top, the story is predictable, and the worst part is that it is not funny at all. Add pointless show of tongue and grotesque faces by Wilson and the train wreck is complete.… Expand

Classic 90's style highschool movie with a twist, it's clear it was made with great heart. As well produced as it was, in such an oversaturated genre it fails to excel in any particular way. Just an average outing for this kind of movie.

Lazy and unfunny Netflix. You're sinking and yet keep investing in this crap.… Expand

Overused idea with terrible acting and borderline insulting dialogues. I don't know why the main actress got her role.

Senior Year is a stupid fun comedy that blends the early 2000s with the high school culture of the 2020s. It's not taking any Academy Awards, but it s has some funny moments and is an enjoyable watch.

The pop culture of the early 2000s was saturated with souless overly processed content. They really nailed the aesthetic.

While in purgatory, of course, you want to get a good laugh in while you wait, am I right? So, what do we do streamers? We turn on good ole Netflix and see what they have for us. Senior Year was released on Netflix this weekend - a movie starring new and "improved" Rebel Wilson. Senior Year is about a young lady in 2002 who wasn't popular but set her mind to being the most popular in high school. Days before prom and her dream of being prom queen is accomplished, she wakes up 20 years later in a hospital. Time to head back to high school. Let's see what's worth your time about this one.

It's movies like this where I can't tell if you're saying the 90s were better, or crueler, or are you saying this generation is lamer, softer but still cruel. I think this movie falls more on the 90s was harsh, but today's teens could learn something from us. That's what I'm settling on for this movie. This theme is central to whether this movie is good commentary or not. Otherwise, this movie is just a regular 13 Going on 30, Freaky Friday, and Big mash up with some crass one liners.

Lord knows I praise Rebel for putting in the work to better herself; but, at times in this movie, her face just looks way older than 37. I'm surprised there weren't really very many old jokes in this movie. It was low hanging fruit, I know; but, damn, Rebel looks out of place. Outside of that, she felt a bit less energetic than the Rebel we're used, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I felt the writing hit sometimes but more than not felt lackluster. In fact, it seems like they maybe went a bit too trendy with their jokes. The jokes were either too cliche and overused; and, in the case of the present time, the jokes were merely humorous but not actually funny. The classic "lol" but you know the person actually isn't laughing out loud where they are.

Senior Year is the prototypical streaming or straight to DVD movie. It's a semi-novel idea that's been done before. There are some laughs about the past and giggles about the present. All of which leads to a forgettable viewing experience. If you're bored and want to relive the 90s with Rebel Wilson, check out Senior Year with a handful of popcorn.… Expand

Pretty standard high school dramedy, even though its not exceptionally funny, you'll definitely get laughs out of it occasionally.

I think the movie does not set its standards too high and it does what it sets out to do pretty well, while bringing on a tolerable amount of cringe.

The humorous take of being in high school in 2022 as well as the Gen Z high school seniors definitely give the movie extra life as well as some very 2022 vibes.

Generally, an OK movie. Do not expect much and you will not be disappointed. It was pretty fun.… Expand

While Rebel Wilson has some funny moments and the over all story of loved ones is a nice one. It is quickly over shadowed by constant unnecessary political stances, shameless product placement and annoying characters.
