Stargirl
b'
Whoo boy - we hope that there aren\'t any big fans of Stargirl because we are not fans of either text.
Brenna at least appreciates the (unsuccessful) attempt by Spinelli to unpack the cost of being a manic pixie dream person. Joe, on the other hand, is frustrated by the simplicity and obviousness of the book\'s message and both of us think Leo is a garbage protagonist.
The film has its own share of problems: namely a lack of conflict, characters, lazy inclusion of POC secondary and queer characters. It also appears to be an extended music video for former America\'s Got Talent contestant Grace VanderWaal.\\xa0
In short: this is an angry episode, folks!
