A Extraordinária Garota Chamada Estrela em Hollywood

Movie Review: Hollywood Stargirl

IN A NUTSHELL:

Disney's "Hollywood Stargirl" is a sequel to the 2020 Disney+ film about free spirit Stargirl Caraway (Grace VanderWaal), a silver-voiced teenager whose simple acts of kindness work magic in the lives of others. The upcoming film follows Stargirl's journey out of Mica, Arizona, and into a bigger world of music, dreams, and possibilities. When her mother Ana (Judy Greer) is hired as the costume designer for a movie, they relocate to L. A., where Stargirl quickly becomes involved with an eclectic assortment of characters. They include aspiring filmmaking brothers Evan (Elijah Richardson) and Terrell (Tyrel Jackson Williams); Mr. Mitchell (Judd Hirsch), one of Stargirl's neighbors; and Roxanne Martel (Uma Thurman), a musician Stargirl admires and encounters on her journey.

The film is directed by Julia Hart.

THINGS I LIKED: Grace VanderWaal offers a quirky, innocently sweet performance. In case you didn't know, she won America's Got Talent a few years ago! She charmed the pants off of the judges and...America. She's a bit more mature in this one but still has that irresistible charisma.

Other cast members include Judy Greer, Judd Hirsch, Tyrel Jackson Williams, Elijah Richardson, Sarayu Blue, and Uma Thurman, who sings in the movie!

Did you know you can watch movies outdoors at the Hollywood Forever cemetery? Is that still a thing there? I've never been there but I love the magic of watching films outdoors.

If you haven't seen the first Stargirl movie, you might wonder if you'll be able to enjoy this one. The good news is that this is a stand-alone movie that can be appreciated. Some viewers are saying this one is better than the original. Others say the reverse. What do YOU think? Have you seen either one of these movies? The 2020 original film by Disney+ was based on a book of the same name by Jerry Spinelli.

A big element of the movie is watching 3 teens trying to make a movie. I love movies within movies.

The film is family-friendly and sweet.

THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: The audience is somewhat limited: teenage girls, their moms, and their grandmas The line Grace VanderWaal says MANY times in the movie is "What?" It's pretty predictable.

It doesn't seem that realistic, but hey, dreams DO come true all the time!

TIPS FOR PARENTS: No profanity Two teens kiss and hug.

A single mom raises a girl.

Stargirl has no sense of "stranger danger."

THEMES: Dreams Fear Friendship and loneliness Home Making movies The Creative process Kindness Family

I don't know where to even begin. This movie is so cute and amazing. I loved it. I will definitely be watching this again. I recommend for all ages. From beginning to end it's really hands down the absolute best.

LOVED THIS! Such a sweet story, so uplifting, and fills you with hope.

Watched it with my 9 & 12 year old girls and we all fell in love with the story.

Great music, great movie! Highly UNDERRATED!

The second movie shouldn't have been made or at least they should of made it less corny. The relationship star girl had with the producer seemed inappropriate. Every scene felt like he shouldn't be friendly with this high school girl. The way she acts too is so corny in real life you would think something is wrong with her mental development and the way she acts so carefree seems almost borderline promiscuous. She goes around meeting new people and being overly friendly getting into cars with strangers, accepting gifts from strangers, kissing a stranger romantically for a movie she magically got tossed into. The black people in the movie felt like they were written by white writers. They were the whitest portrayal of black men I ever seen in my life. I'm from LA and the hipster type black people I run into which I think is what they tried portraying in this movie don't act like that. I started getting a workout in the movie. Finished my workout 10 minutes before the movie ended and shut it off to take a shower. I saw the majority of the movie.

"Hollywood stargirl" is full of energetic, alter and friendship one.

It's a movie where I find myself completely into it. With every starting new scenes in this movie, I had felt something a new energy rising inside of me. In the same way, the attitude of extrovert presented in this movie, just inspires me to be someone new that I am afraid of to be. As we heard many times, doing friendship is easy but maintaining it, is a hardest thing to leave a mark on. That's how I was and am still. But this movie try to make a impact on my life with a still Hope on it.

Talking about the acting, all the cast had done a wonderful job. But somehow we know that it still can be better. The place where a film was shooted was a best choice ever made. The directing things with different angle made me to love it.

Somehow this movie is worth to watch for once. Thank you ...hope you like me mine review and yes kind of........
