Senior Year
It’s 17, going on 37 meets skip to the future but it’s not a fantasy story about magical wishes or time machine DeLorean. When a high school cheer routine goes totally wrong, it sends poor Stephanie (Rebel Wilson) into a coma for 20 years. After she wakes, she decides to return to high school & complete her senior year where she was the cheerleader captain & the popular girl competing for prom queen. This is a fish out of water story where all of her classmates are now grownups & she is stuck 20 years behind competing against a “woke” generation. It’s a comedy of errors as Wilson does what she is good at. It’s a predictable storyline & seems to be an excuse to stage several music video style scenes.
Alien gives it 2 “Go Wildcats” stars out of 4.
