Amazingly good!

This movie was better than what I expected! They should definitely make a second part! I want to know what happens when he comes off tour and if they get into a relationship or not! Matt did an excellent job at acting and I really think he should start doing it. Very pleased with this movie. 10/10. If they make a second movie I would love to see more about Jordans life and more from his point of view. The movie is basically a fan girls fan fiction come to life and yes I did fan girl a little not going to lie , but I would honestly love to see a second part to this movie. If you haven't watched it , go watch it , you won't be let down! And if you're from the UK and want to watch it , they have put it on Netflix.

Basic fun teenage romance?

It's perfectly mediocre, with a classic teenage romance trope between a 'pop' kid and a regular kid. Even so, it's a good form of escapism from everyday life.

Good Escape

I completely agree with the other review. I picked this movie because it seemed like something whimsy that didn't need all my attention. But, like the other review also states, I found myself pausing it when I needed to step away and would rewind if I missed something. There were a couple of slow parts and I think you notice them because most movies have a lot more action. Whereas this movie just told a story with a really basic message. Even though it's a teen movie I think the message transcends to any age. You need to see the whole thing to understand why it is good, and after you watch it you think about. The movie left me hopeful. Feels weird but I don't hate it.

I took off one star due to a couple awkward scenes that have been over played in all movie plots.

Lovely teen movie with a message

When I watched this movie's trailer I thought this was a copy of Starstruck,that DCOM where the main characters meets a pop superstar that she hates and after sharing some time together they got a love connection. Does that sounds like this movie? Yes. Is that 100% true? No. "Be Somebody" is more than a movie with a girl meeting a pop superstar and falling in love to each other. In this movie I watched two young artists trying to find themselves with the other one's help. For me, it was a very slow plot but that didn't make stop watching it. The message is there since the first scene. It's also a movie that you can have fun watching it. Definitely something you should watch in a free time just to have a good time and a little dose of inspiration.

Very good

I really liked it. Its a quiet film, no action but is powerfully lead by the dialogue and chemistry between the two leads.

It felt like Jordan Jaye may have been modelled ever so slightly on Justin Bieber? Or maybe I am overthinking it.

Highly recommend it!
