Maddie Baillio (who played Millie) was great. I hope Netflix options the book about her character

Not a fan. Boring/cheesy.

Really cute. Watched it with my ten-year-old and she loved it too. IIRC it has one instance of bad language but otherwise is totally appropriate.

I also watched this tonight and thought it was so cute! Now we are re-watching Twilight and WOW I forgot how bad the acting was

I enjoyed it, but it was a bit slow.

I thought it was cute and so heartwarming. I loved watching it— kept me entertained while exercising.

Yeah, kinda agree. I think it was cute, but really predictable & far fetched as well. But maybe that’s why people like it. I did like the cast and how nuanced the Willa character was.

I really liked the movie and didn't find it boring or overhyped.

I really wanted to like it too given the hype but also found it a bit boring.

To be honest, I watched it because I love RuPaul's Drag Race and Ginger Minj. But I did think it was pretty cute! Didn't realize it was a book. I'm curious - does the book explore the connection between the aunt and the drag queens a little more than the movie - aside from their mutual love of Dolly?

I thought it was boring too. Not really funny, not warm or touching enough...really didn't check any of the boxes for me. I kept waiting to be moved in some way but it just didn't happen.

I'll go ahead and be the outlier. I didn't like it. I thought it was boring. It was nice to see Jen Anniston show that she can play a different character.

But I found myself looking at the time left on the movie several times.

Beats all expectations. But Why does the fat girl always need to also always win the too cute guy too?

Just watched it and LOVED it.

To the person asking about 9-10 year olds. I would say it’s not inappropriate, but it’s just not the target audience. Have you already discussed body image issues with them? There’s taunting/bullying and some really emotional scenes. I would say 13+ is better.
