zihan z Not accurate to the book at all. Very disappointing. Cuts were bad. So was acting. Movie was far too fast paced. Without the background context of the book movie makes no sense. They completely skip over the beginning part? Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/04/24 Full Review Dale R A Disney+ original film that is a coming of age story about two teenagers in Arizona that is based on a book by Jerry Spinelli. Grace VanderWaal plays Stargirl and for a singer/songwriter that won America’s Got Talent she does a great job acting. Of course, they utilize Grace’s singing and ukulele skills well during the film. I wasn’t sold on Graham Verchere in the lead role, however I was cheering for the relationship between his and Grace’s character. There are some slow points in the movie that I checked to see how much was left. The ending was worth the wait as the life lesson was appropriately shown. I would recommend this film if you’re in the mood for a teenage coming of age story or are interested in Grace VanderWaal’s career.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/04/23 Full Review Mato S "Stargirl" is a heartwarming coming-of-age story about a quirky and unconventional high school student named Stargirl Caraway, who captures the hearts of her classmates with her unique personality and talents. The film stars Grace VanderWaal as Stargirl and follows her journey as she navigates the ups and downs of high school life and ultimately finds acceptance and belonging. One of the strong points of this film is the fantastic performance by Grace VanderWaal, who truly embodies the character of Stargirl. Her portrayal of the quirky and confident Stargirl is both endearing and inspiring, and she brings a strong energy to the film. The supporting cast also delivers solid performances, particularly Graham Verchere, who plays the lead male character Leo Borlock. The cinematography in this film is beautiful and captures the essence of the high school experience. The director, Julia Hart, has a keen eye for detail and uses creative camera angles and transitions to enhance the storytelling. The film's soundtrack, featuring original songs by Grace VanderWaal, is also a standout element and adds to the overall mood and emotion of the film. One criticism of the film is that it may be predictable at times, and some of the plot points feel a bit clichéd. However, despite this, "Stargirl" still manages to deliver a touching and uplifting message about the importance of individuality and the power of friendship. In conclusion, "Stargirl" is a charming and heartfelt film that is sure to resonate with audiences of all ages. With strong performances, beautiful cinematography, and a touching message, it's definitely worth checking out. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review yash b There are an endless supply of coming of age movies, and I tend to enjoy most of the entries. I don't think "Stagirl" is among the best of the genre, nor does it bring many new themes to the table, but it is a sweet and likable movie that I enjoyed. The movie is good natured and isn't very long, so it is easy to watch. I liked the characters and thought the movie had plenty of feel good moments. One thing I like about this movie is that it makes a coming of age story more accessible for younger audiences, unlike some other more serious movies in the genre. Overall, this is a harmless and cute movie that many age groups can appreciate together and a solid orignal offering from Disney+. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Very well done. Loved the whole thing and casting was just perfect. Usually, Disney creates brainless garbage for their channels - doesn't offend anyone, follows a formula, extra characters that don't need to be there, etc. But, this time - things flow smoothly and the movie/story stays on track. Loved the sequel too. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
