Straitlaced Princeton University admissions officer, Portia Nathan is caught off-guard when she makes a recruiting visit to an alternative high school overseen by her former college classmate, the freewheeling John Pressman. Pressman has surmised that Jeremiah, his gifted yet very unconventional student, might well be the son that Portia secretly gave up for adoption many years ago.

Without Tina fey and Paul Rudd this movie wouldn’t be half as charming.

Watch it once and you’re good. It’ll fill your night and you won’t feel like you wasted it.

Decent enough movie to put on when you’re awkwardly hanging out with family.

I really liked it. Not too silly, just the right amount of funny. Perfect ending. Not what I expected.

Fantastic chemistry between two immensely likeable leads doesn’t stop this from being a thoroughly bland rom-com. Give it a pass.

Just an odd movie. I found the pacing and story off putting and ultimately forgettable. A waste for these actors
