Critics Consensus

In spite of a premise that promises to highlight Rebel Wilson with the appropriate level of pomp and circumstance, Senior Year is strictly remedial.

Rebel Wilson is funny. Senior Year is not.

It's hard to imagine a more unpleasant movie than "Senior Year."

“Senior Year” is not an ambitious movie, but it’s mostly a sweet one, and frequently funny.

Rebel Wilson is inherently funny and she manages to wring a few laughs out of the sitcom script, but the thin plot is stretched out by the inclusion of multiple dance numbers...

Feeble attempts at absurdist comedy fall flat in a film that fails to weave its stabs at earnest emotion together with confused commentary that has nothing new to say about high school or its social hierarchies.

Despite assembling all the right ingredients, any attempt at a saccharine piece of media is thwarted by a plot that is more confused than its protagonist.

It was fun to see the early 2000s, Wilson is funny when she gets the chance to shine. However, the script is weak, most of it is consumed by the modern “wokeness” of high school kids and some of the stands are bizarre.

Nostalgic and classic. A great brand of modern and 2000's comedy.

Vulgar does not equal funny. Some cute moments, but LOTS of misdirection. Just didn't come together. Avantika was a bright spot.

Ok. It’s a stupid movie, but it’s fun and full of heart with enough feel good smiles to make it entertaining.

Hilarious from start to finish, in true Rebel Wilson fashion. Anybody who hates it doesn't know how to take life a little less seriously...

The comments being posted are so uptight and made by individuals who take this as a profession rather than a hobby. Thankfully the movie doesn't reflect the characters of the people typing the comments. This movie is a fantastic concept and a lighthearted endeavor to enjoy with yourself or with family.
