-
The College Admissions Scandal is the kind of modest, quick-turnaround effort that won't win any prizes; still, in terms of shining a light on that part of the story, it scores a passing grade the old-fashioned way: By earning it.
-
The dialogue is clunky and cliched. ... What saves The College Admission Scandal from total camp is Miller, who really rings true as a mom who loves her son and is deeply ashamed about what she’s done. Kirshner goes big as the woman who, instead, doesn’t understand the consequences. She’s right out of a primetime soap, but Kirshner keeps her grounded.

To its credit, The College Admissions Scandal doesn’t wrap things up in anything even remotely resembling a happy ending. Families are torn apart, and prison is looming. It plays like an after-school special of a cautionary tale (for the .001% who have six figures to toss around on fake test scores), but it’s still hard to muster up sympathy for even these destroyed characters at the end.
