Accepted

I can remember being 11 years old, crying of laughter when I saw the movie Accepted in theaters. Justin Long, facing rejection after rejection when applying to colleges as a high school senior deicded to create one place, a safe haven if you will, where everyone is ACCEPTED. With the help of his buddies who include Jonah Hill and Blake Lively, he is able to create a fake college. At first it was to get his parents to stop thinking he is a complete failure, but when his plan goes awry and people actually start to attend the college, he develops a compassion for all the other people who were rejected to. With immense whit and humor this movie will have you on the floor laughing. I give this movie a 9/10

  1. Readng this brought back memories. It made me laugh out loud remembering all the moments in the movie. My favorite part is the guy in the kitchen yelling at the fruit "WHAT ARE YOU" haha I liked your review I think you fit in the plot just fine without dragging it out into something that wasn't needed

  2. Zoe - I enjoyed reading your post on Accepted. I thought this movie was hilarious also, especially since I definitely related to it as I watched it around the time of applying for college, hoping I didn't end up like the many students at S.H.I.T. Fortunately, though, I was accepted into a few of the schools of my choice, thus I didn't have to attend a S.H.I.T.T.Y. college. See what I did there? Anyways, thanks for posting about a solid movie I actually saw!
