Review Admission (2013)

genre: comedy, drama



Admission should not be seen as a comedy, because it fails as one. However as a light drama it excels. It is filled with themes that are touched upon subtly or less so without it becoming too heavy. Every viewer will be able to relate to at least one of them. Most focus naturally is given on the admission system of those elite Universities. I will reserve my opinion of the system, because I very likely will anger some people with my views. I always do. However for once it is of no consequence what any ones think to the main plot. Whatever we feel, it's all about Tina Fey's character discovering what she really is about and where her passions lie. With her we go on a small journey that while not providing the laughs as one might expect it goes into another direction that is very sincere. This makes Admission an incredibly thoughtful and heartwarming film. For me absolutely worth the time.
