“Hollywood Stargirl is the perfect sequel! We reunite with favorite characters from Stargirl and see how much theyu0026#39;ve grown. By the end of the film we are left wanting to see more of these characters-which is a good thing!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHollywood Stargirl is very relatable and follows Stargirl (Grace VanderWaal) who has recently moved to Los Angeles. She meets new friends in her apartment building and begins filming a movie. In the first Stargirl film, Stargirl herself is incredibly free spirited and inspires others. In Hollywood Stargirl, she struggles with her emotions, living somewhere new, and wanting to make friends. Seeing a teen girl who is lost and isnu0026#39;t quite sure where her place in the world is so comforting because it reminds young audiences that others feel the same way they do. And itu0026#39;s a good motivation to live life to the fullest.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eStargirlu0026#39;s wardrobe is spectacular, and it encapsulates her character perfectly. Graceu0026#39;s acting is magnificent, too, and how she shows Stargirlu0026#39;s deepest emotions in quiet scenes is very engaging. Stand out scenes like Stargirl singing in her room and going to a club to watch singers perform are heartwarming-itu0026#39;s wonderful to see her grow comfortable in herself and her music. Graceu0026#39;s chemistry with her co-star Elijah Richardson, who plays Evan, is phenomenal. Two young actors bring comedy, friendship, and all awkward teenage emotions to the screen with such simple performances. Hollywood Stargirl proves that contemporary cinema needs more movies like these.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eStargirl learns several lessons throughout the film. She learns to communicate her feelings to her mom, to feel comfortable in her music and how to turn her life into an adventure. For the first time, Stargirl learns the importance of friendship and camaraderie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI give Hollywood Stargirl 5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. It begins streaming on Disney+ June 3, 2022.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBy Heather S., KIDS FIRST!”
