I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

'Accepted' is a fun movie that will satisfy those who are partial to a silly comedy. Everything about this film is ridiculous. The whole thing is set up to cram as many jokes in to the 90 minute running time as it possibly can. Some of them are funny, others less so, but that's what you get with these sort of films.You have to be in the mood for a film like 'Accepted'. If you're not then this is an easy film to hate on, but if a silly comedy is exactly what you're in the mood for then 'Accepted' is definitely worth a watch. It does a decent job at doing what it sets out to do - being completely stupid.

Bartleby Gaines (Justin Long) is a high school slacker schemer. He is rejected by every college. And his parents won't give him the college money so he comes up with a plan. He and various college reject friends start up their own fake college. Only the website is so real that all kind of people show up after being accepted. Now they have to fake a college for real.Justin Long is his jittery self. Jonah Hill is still fat at the time. Blake Lively is the hot dream girl. The premise is stupid stretched thin to insulting. There are a few good laughs, but it's not enough. The movie just runs out of gas.

I am writing this review mainly because everything, the reviews (a meager 37% on RottenTomatoes, seriously?), the box-office, etc., seem to be against this film, and I feel that this film doesn't deserve any of these "negativity"s. Maybe because I watched this film without any expectation (which seems to be the case with most people who've reviewed this film in IMDb) or because I am a teenager and can relate to it, I really enjoyed this film. I'm a fan of the comedy genre in general, especially of the "feel good" or "energetic comedy" sub-genre-- the ones in which films make you laugh as well as feel good and at the same time inspire you. I know a lot of people railing against this film complain about the general implausibility of the plot, and I do admit that they are right, but seriously, I have never understood why people always want films to have realistic plots. Come on, Lord Of The Rings, Star Wars, Forrest Gump, do any of these have "realistic" plots? Of course not! Yet they are fantastic, really enjoyable! And this film is somewhere along the similar lines. Maybe some of you will feel indignant for my comparing this film to LOTR and Star Wars and Forrest Gump and all, but that's just your cynicism talking! I really enjoyed this movie, and I believe anyone with an open mind and not-so-general-air of cynicism toward teen movies will enjoy it as well. But of course, since I'm a teenager, I can't tell how adults are going to take this film, so I speak only for teens and/or people who enjoy teen movies.PS: This is my first IMDb review. I'm really glad that I wrote my first review for the film that I really liked.

I just got this movie from my friend and had a good time watching it... This movie is amazingly funny and also really enthusiastic too ! This movie says about the truth of today's education system, maybe abroad or here in India, it's all the same... It is an excellent portrayal of the "system" in question and how ridiculous it truly is. The funny portions in the movie r really funny, because they say the truth ! Many other movies just become stupid, actually meaning to be funny, but this isn't a movie like that! this is actually a funny and meaningful movie that every student and Parents too should watch !!!Hope you have a good time watching this movie!
