Admission




We all love Tina Fey from the hit television show '30 Rock' and we've grown to love Paul Rudd no matter what role he plays; 'The 40 Year Old Virgin', 'Knocked Up' or 'I Love You, Man'. Pairing these two successful actors together - well, pretty much serves up a slice of jocose genius - or does it?

2013's 'Admission' written by Karen Croner and Jean Hanff Korelitz and directed by Paul Weitz had two of Hollywood's hottest to bring this comedy-drama-romance to life. Unique and fun-loving story that brought humor but also plenty of the 'Awww-factor' as things went from bad to worse and then refreshingly okay as the story unfolds with more than perfect comic timing.

With an estimated budget of $13 million USD, filmmakers were able to gross $18 million USD at the box-office. Like-able cast and talented actors but I'm not sure Rudd and Fey had the most believable chemistry; they made it work but perhaps it became a bit fantasy/disney towards the end, when life-changing situations seem alright and easily forgiven.
