Sierra Burgess Is a LoserMovie · 2018
Get ready for a rom-com that's equal parts sweet and super cringe, in the best way. This movie gives us a modern take on the classic catfishing trope, with an unlikely friendship forming between the 'loser' and the 'popular girl' over a shared crush. You'll be on the edge of your seat wondering when the truth will come out, and honestly, we are absolutely not okay watching Noah Centineo do his charming boy-next-door thing. It's a messy, high school vibe that's all about finding your voice.
High school senior Sierra Burgess, a bright but often overlooked student, finds her world turned upside down by a prank gone wrong. After popular cheerleader Veronica gives Sierra's number to a cute football player, Jamey, Sierra starts texting him while pretending to be Veronica. To keep the charade going, Sierra and Veronica form an unlikely alliance, navigating the complexities of their crushes and high school social dynamics. This coming-of-age story explores identity, self-worth, and the blurred lines of online romance.
