Every spring, high school seniors anxiously await letters of college admission that will affirm and encourage their potential. At Princeton University, admissions officer Portia Nathan (Tina Fey) is a gatekeeper evaluating thousands of applicants. Year in and year out, Portia has lived her life by the book, at work as well as at the home she shares with Princeton professor Mark (Michael Sheen). When Clarence (Wallace Shawn), the Dean of Admissions, announces his impending retirement, the likeliest candidates to succeed him are Portia and her office rival Corinne (Gloria Reuben). For Portia, however, it's business as usual as she hits the road on her annual recruiting trip. (c) Focus Movie Release on Theater Mar 22, 2013 Wide | |

Admission Movie Review | |
| What is most distressing about Admission is that it serves as further evidence that Tina Fey, despite her dominance of the small screen, has not yet mastered the big one. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic This is certainly an interesting idea, though the movie is badly handicapped by Fey, who must venture beyond her usual snippiness into scenes of genuine poignancy and proves unequal to the task. J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader Granted, this is not automatic laugh-riot material, nor should it be, but didn't Fey recognize how hackneyed it all is? Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor If Fey ends up making movies as good as this one over the next few years, television's loss will have been cinema's gain, for real. Glenn Kenny-MSN Movies You'll be glad you enrolled. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger This would be a good movie for a parent to watch with a high-school-age child facing down the college admissions slog-it's mildly snarky but resolutely uncynical. Dana Stevens-Slate A rather bland comedy that never rises above its sitcom premise. Scott Nash-Three Movie Buffs Fey is flawless as a stickler for rules, order, and over-rehearsed patter whose desperation to maintain an even keel at all times results in puckishly inappropriate behavior when things start to fall apart Andrea Chase-Killer Movie Reviews A comedy that's not especially funny, and a satire of the college admissions culture that isn't especially incisive Stephen Silver-EntertainmentTell Admission squanders its most interesting aspects, flattening them out into a tidy, dull narrative instead of running with their more outlandish aspects, or focusing deeper on the pain at the heart of the characters. Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide When Admission is over, you're left with the feeling that you've seen something whole, complete, and enjoyable - albeit not all that memorable. Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant Depending on your point of view, then, Admission is either a so-so comedy, or a quirky drama that's never fully formed. Kirk Baird-Toledo Blade Doris Day will be 89 in two weeks, which makes her exactly half a century too old to play the lead in Admission. That's a pity, as perhaps only she could have done it justice -- if it had been made in 1958. Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer Once Weitz makes up his mind, 'Admission' finds its voice as a drama in time to reach a satisfying conclusion. Jeffrey Westhoff-Northwest Herald (Crystal Lake, IL) [Weitz] wrings out solid humor from Portia's comic struggles to balance her professionalism with her newly unearthed maternal instincts. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune An alternately comical and thought-provoking cautionary tale that's every bit as hilarious as it is sobering. Kam Williams-AALBC.com It's not often a film comes along that's just as much fun to watch with your parents as it is to watch with your partner or friends, but Admission is just that sort of film. Rick Marshall-IFC.com ... a wonderfully entertaining comedy with good pace and sparkling performances... Tony Medley-Tolucan Times Teen-friendly comedy has laughs but is uneven. S. Jhoanna Robledo-Common Sense Media It's mostly harmless, but also pretty lifeless. Ethan Alter-Television Without Pity "Hey, look who's here," the film says excitedly as Rudd and Fey routinely attempt to make a stale screenplay humorous, "Why aren't you laughing at them?" Matthew Razak-Flixist.com These guys could make taxes seem charming. Pair them up romantically and surround them with a competent three-act screenplay and the rest takes care of itself.
