Hey guys so today I'm going to be doing a short AF movie review on the movie "Sierra Burgess Is A Loser". As usual, this review is going to be short and sweet (like the title suggests), and spoiler free. (However there will be the IMDB synopsis in this and sometimes they can contain spoilers however 9/10 times they don't. It's just something to keep in mind if you're planning on watching the movie)
"A case of mistaken identity results in unexpected romance when the most popular girl in high school and the biggest loser must come together to win over their crushes."
So I've been hyped up for this movie since the advert came out because one netflix have been bringing out some fab movies lately and two something about it reminded me of late 80's early 90's teen movies. On that side, it did not disappoint. It was quirky, it was funny there were so many parts in this movie that was just relatable. However.. (This bit is slightly spoilery, but not at the same time) Sierra Burgess was a body positive young girl who told herself she was wonderful in the mirror at the beginning of this movie. At the end of this movie she was insecure because of a boy. This was a huge disappointment. There's not enough movies out there which shows body positive girls and then they show one and take it away the moment a boy is involved. I know this makes me sound like a stuck up feminist, but it just was sad to see. This movie could have been a real feel good movie if it was not for that. There were some characters I adored the development of, especially veronica, and I just wish there were more of that in the movie. I would recommend this if you like movies like this, because it is an enjoyable movie. That was my only fault with it and it's not enough of one to tell people not to watch it, and also not enough to not watch it again. If you get a chance too and you like movies like this it's currently on netfix right now!
Have you watched this movie yet? If you did, what did you think of it? Do you have any movies, series or books you'd recommend for me to watch/read or want me to do a short AF review on? Please let me know down in the comments below!
Have a wonderful day,
Love, Lyndsay
