Watch Admission Movie Online No Survey Tina Fey (30 Rock) and Paul Rudd (This is 40) are paired for the first time on-screen in Admission, the new comedy/drama directed by Academy Award nominee Paul Weitz (About a Boy, In Good Company), about the surprising detours we encounter on the road to happiness. 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 Release Date Admission Mar 22, 2013 Wide | |

Review For Admission |
What appears on paper to be an ideal three-dimensional, morally complex role for the quick-witted comedienne backfires in practice, relying on Fey to be funny in a movie that works better serious. Peter Debruge-Variety
Equal parts amiable and weightless, tough to take seriously and yet light on honest laughs. William Goss-Film.com
Paul Weitz betrays an erratic grip on the comic tone, and the misguided central characters emerge, in the end, as less likeable than they ought to be. Todd McCarthy-Hollywood Reporter
Assigned to the wrong director, Chris Weitz, who has not made a decent film in a decade, Admission is a misfire, despite the presence of the gifted comedienne Tina Fey. Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com
Tina Fey's first big blunder. Cavalier and flippant regarding serious issues. Sloppy directing, terrible acting. Where is Helen Hunt when you need her? Victoria Alexander-Film Festival Today
The estrogenic elements prove widely ineffectual, but they're just pieces of this overlong, overloaded misfire whose double-entendre title ultimately just goads the jaded viewer to admit defeat. R. Kurt Osenlund-Slant Magazine
Engaging dramedy about a college admissions officer who suddenly finds herself adrift on a sea of difficulties which test her identity and deepest values. Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice
A terrifically fresh narrative backdrop and the often delightful interplay of two timing-savvy comedians, Tina Fey and Paul Rudd, help give wings to director Paul Weitz's Admission. Brent Simon-Screen International
Off the likability charts Jordan Hoffman-ScreenCrush
It eventually elevates itself above its genre, which can be fully attributed to Paul Weitz's knack for this type of material and the brilliant pairing of Tina Fey with Paul Rudd. Edward Douglas-ComingSoon.net
