Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter A bold look at fandom rings true. Nov 4, 2020 Full Review David Cuevas In Review Online Antoinette Jadaone's Fan Girl proves to be an endlessly fascinating character study that never once settles for easy answers. Jun 7, 2021 Full Review Oggs Cruz Rappler It is relevant and necessary, especially in this day and age where questionable idols do not just mouth quotable quotes to earn kisses from their leading women; they also govern.

Ian W Uncomfortable viewing at times. Janie is obsessed with an actor - Paolo - and ends up at his house. As the two get to know each other, Janie discovers that he is a deeply flawed person. As Janie realizes the difference between real Paolo and the screen image, it brings clarity to her own real life. Deftly made and absorbing. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/24 Full Review Read all reviews
