It was a good story overall that made if fun to imagine what you might wish for to happen from the Universe if you had the power.

Not the best movie. Could guess what the plot was going to be like, and it didn't really end up anywhere. It feels very, very Disney. A cringier version of Highschool Musical.

This movie had me in tears, i don't know if it was because the character playing Lonnie reminded me of how my high-school life was, being overweight and friendless. And by the end he had many friends. Or if it was the performance from Ross Lynch and Olivia SMOKIN ASS Holt! p.s Brec is smokin as well. this movie should have a Fresh rating of at least 79% but no America doesn't care for high-school love stories i guess. maybe it's just me!! i will 1,000% be re-watching this LEGENDARY movie!!!

I am shocked by this movie. It was a nice surprise. In this film, he is committed to a new type of masculinity. The script is perfect, it keeps the viewer tense and each comic gesture responds to the plot and enriches the characters. I found the performance of these guys fabulous and overall I consider it a really good movie to motivate and empower teenagers and young people.

Starts off funny but becomes a frustrating exercise in dj vu for anyone who's graduated from high school or seen a movie.

As delete-worthy as its social media inspirations.

If ever a film demanded to be viewed on a phone, it's this one.

Spectrum Culture

Little more than a feature-length tween sitcom episode, Status Update is not exactly a good movie. However, its script is earnest enough and its cast is endearing enough that it's just a better editor away from being not bad.

Rated: 2.5/5

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

This teen comedy with a "be yourself" message is slickly artificial, grinding painfully through extremely well-worn plot mechanics and essentially failing to follow its own message.

Rated: 2/5
