Accepted (2006)
Every parent’s dream is to get their sons and daughters to a good university. If they fail to do so, there’s still dozens of university that will accept them anyway right? Well in the movie “Accepted” shows otherwise. Written by Adam Cooper and directed by Steve Pink, Accepted is a teen-comedy movie that was released on 18th of August 2006.

The story revolves around Bartleby Gaines (Justin Long) that has yet to find a college willing to admit him. From each letter from the college he applied to, the message would always say the same thing. Bartleby is a nice and reasonably bright guy. However, his academic history was not too impressive. After being turned down by his last “safety” school, Bartleby and both of his parents loses hope of what he could become, until then he comes up with a crazy idea.
Bartleby and his friends create a website for a non-existent college, South Harmon Institute of Technology. As it happens, they rebuild an abandoned building as their so called university so that Bartleby parents will be convinced that he’s actually matriculating there.
Neither did Bartleby and his friends know that hundreds of people that gone to the same phase as Bartleby actually signed up at South Harmon Institute of Technology, the imaginary college they’ve created. The plot continues to a more exciting events and moments.
I think the plot of the story is pretty original and they did a good job on balancing both conflict and comedy. The actor and actresses also did a good job on delivering the situation they portrayed which makes the movie is enjoyable to watch. There are lots of moral message in Accepted that teens would probably relate more than anyone. They teach us to continue to try and dare to express ourselves more freely. Overall, if you want a good comedy movie that holds good message in it, then you should try watching “Accepted”.
