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.

Chicago Sun-Times

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...

Rated: 2/4

The Hindu

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.

Overall out of Netflix’s slate of forgettable films this is one that manages to lead among the pack and deliver a good time.

The movie's layout was very clean and I loved it. The ending was kind of predictable but it was very good.

I am always searching for a movie that is light, funny & not soul draining. I thought this movie was funny, making fun of the cool kids, not cool kids and the adults along the way. I enjoyed it. I think Rebel Wilson is funny & she played the 17 year old mind in the 37 year old body great. I'm not a critic, just a 67 year old searching for funny movies.

Dear God, what an uninteresting movie and such noticeably bad acting. I'm sure that doing anything else for two hours would be better than wasting time on this film.

Senior Year is a lighthearted, entertaining comedy that blends high school nostalgia with a modern twist. Starring Rebel Wilson as a woman who wakes up from a coma 20 years after a cheerleading accident and returns to finish her senior year, the film is filled with over-the-top humor and heartfelt moments. Wilson delivers her signature comedic energy, making the film a fun watch. While the plot can be predictable and a bit cheesy, its feel-good tone and themes of personal growth and second chances keep it enjoyable.

Esse foi de longe o pior filme que eu assisti na minha vida inteira, e olha que assisti em 2022, e estamos em 2025. Ainda não encontrei nenhum filme pior. Quando decidi assistir, estava ansiosa para ver, porque prometia uma nostalgia aos anos 90 (época em que fui adolescente), e todo o clichê de escola de ensino médio e adolescentes, bem "sessão da tarde" no Brasil. Me decepcionei com a qualidade do filme. Péssimo, horroroso, mal escrito. A Rebel Wilson totalmente sem graça, não tinha nenhum sal, não tinha uma piada que de fato fizesse rir. Eu não recomendo nem para o meu pior inimigo.
