The quirky new girl at school (newcomer Grace VanderWaal) intrigues a low-key student (Graham Verchere, Summer of 84) and goes from ridiculed to celebrated in this Disney-made coming-of-age dramedy based on the best-selling young adult novel.
Feeling like the cinematic love-child of the films of John Hughes and Cameron Crowe, Star Girl is peppered with catchy tunes (most notably the school spirit anthem Be True to Your School) and memorable moments (heartfelt speeches, a crowdpleasing finale featuring a classic banger by The Cars) that will delight audiences of all ages.

The relationships and situations aren't deeply explored, but it's not that kind of movie. Does it effectively deliver its message of embracing uniqueness in oneself and others? Sure. It's pretty nail-on-the-head.
