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.

Audience Says

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

Pallavi Keswani

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.

When it's funny, it's laugh-out-loud hilarious. When it's not, it's really, incredibly not. Still, the cast puts in their all (especially Rebel Wilson) and it's surprisingly heartwarming at times.

Its no brainer movie. Dont think or expect too much and just enjoy the ride. I love how this movie have a meaning that popularity doesnt mean much, and "perfect life" is just illusion (the cab scene). What matter the most is people who love us, and the adventures along the way. Its fun comedy, love the dancing routine..

It was a decent, fun film for an evening that we had nothing planned. There is some vulgar jokes that were not necessary. The movie provided a couple of chuckles while we were watching it. The 90's soundtrack WAS GREAT. The thing is with movies such as this...the script is pretty predictable.

Excel A

Senior Year In this movie, Stephanie Conway (portrayed by Rebel Wilson), a beloved high school senior aspiring to be prom queen, falls into a coma due to a scheme orchestrated by her nemesis. Two decades later, she emerges from her coma and resolves to complete her senior year. Senior Year taps into 2000s nostalgia and benefits greatly from Rebel Wilson's comedic prowess. However, it falls short in depth. While the plot shows potential, it quickly feels underdeveloped. The stark contrast between young and older Stephanie is puzzling, as she ages physically but not mentally, seemingly played for laughs. The numerous characters here don't elevate the story, and they're not always fully utilised. The ending is rushed, and leaves loose ends; the fate of some characters remains unknown, case in point Tiffany and Blaine. Ultimately, Senior Year is a tropey and predictable flick but it also has its golden moments that help make it tolerable. 5.5/10
