 Sierra Burgess is a Loser
Sierra Burgess Is a Loser is an American teen comedy-drama film directed by
Ian Samuels. The film was released on September 7, 2018, by Netflix. The film is a
modern retelling of the Cyrano de Bergerac story, and stars Shannon Purser as
Sierra, Kristine Froseth as Veronica, RJ Cyler as Dan, and Noah Centineo as
Jamey. Sierra has pretty much lived her life knowing she isn’t like the Veronicas of
the world. Despite how skinny and petite her mom Jules is, she is the opposite. She
is tall, has meat on her bones, and gets teased at school by nearly everyone her age
but her best friend Dan. Yet, when one of her biggest bullies gives her phone
number, from her tutoring flier, to a boy named Jamey, she finds momentary bliss. A
hot guy, who through texts and phone calls, seems to genuinely like her. However,
there comes the issue of wanting to face time and go on dates. Leading to Sierra,
thanks to movie magic, befriending her enemy and elongating the ruse. But, with
Veronica having a troubling romantic life, and home life to boot, and Jamey sweet as
can be, there seems to be a momentary lapse in remembering she is helping Sierra
and not dating the boy herself. And with that lapse, Sierra goes insane for a second
and yet finds herself, with a simple song, “Sunflower” healing all wounds and strife.
I like this film because there is a lot of good points here but you have to
suspend your sense of disbelief to the point you have to consider this fantasy. Not
because of a guy like Jamey liking Sierra, but because of how we get to the point of
him liking her specifically and not her person with Veronica’s face and body. The
movie contains a lot of good message and the plot is unique.
 Princess Diaries
The Princess Diaries is a 2001 American teen comedy film produced by Walt
Disney Pictures and directed by Garry Marshall. The film was written by Gina
Wendkos and stars Anne Hathaway as Mia and Julie Andrews as Clarisse, with a
supporting cast consisting of Héctor Elizondo as Joe, Heather Matarazzo as Lily,
Mandy Moore as Lana, Caroline Goodall as Helen and Robert Schwartzman as
Micheal. Mia Thermopolis is the average teenager - sweet, a little geeky and pretty
much invisible to everyone with the exception of her mother, best friend Lilly and
Lilly's older brother Michael. Making it through high school without throwing up is a
challenge in itself for Mia, so it doesn't come as welcome news when her estranged
grandmother shows up out of the blue and calmly informs her that she is in fact the
heir to the throne of a European country called Genovia. Suddenly Mia's life is
thrown into complete overload. She's being taught about scarves, waves and pears
in order to become a perfect princess, she gets a makeover and a tough looking yet
sweet bodyguard/limo driver called Joe. Things get out of hand when the media gets
a hold of the story and suddenly Mia is thrust into the spotlight in both the
newspapers and in school. On top of all that Mia has a choice to make. She must
decide by Genovia's Independence Day Ball whether she longs to relinquish her
claim on the throne or to become the princess and heir to the throne her father and
grandmother want her to be.

I like this film because of the personality of the main casts especially Mia’s.
The story is unique and you get to see the life of being a princess. It is enjoyable
watching the character development of every cast. I like watching teen comedy films
because they are fun to watch. Throughout the story it somehow teaches a few life
lessons along the way.
 50 First Dates
50 First Dates is a 2004 American romantic comedy film directed by Peter
Segal and starring Adam Sandler as Henry, Drew Barrymore as Lucy, Rob
Schneider as Ula, Sean Astin as Doug, Blake Clark as Marlin, and Dan Aykroyd as
Dr. Keats. Henry Roth lives in a Hawaiian paradise with the company of endless
women with no strings attached. This is until he meets Lucy Whitmore. Both Henry
and Lucy enjoy the company of each other and feel the start of a serious relationship
occurring. Approaching Lucy the next day, Henry is confused when Lucy fails to
recognize him. This is the moment Henry discovers that Lucy actually suffers from
short term memory loss and can't remember each individual day. Henry won't let this
stop him and is prepared to make her fall in love with him all over again, each and
every day.
I like this film because I am a big fan of romantic comedies. The storyline is
unique and the idea itself. One of my favorite unwind films. I love the silly story, the
cast work together magically and they really enjoyed making this film so the
chemistry is there. The soundtrack is adorable and ironic. The film displays that you
can do anything for love and the heart remembers what the mind can't.
