I’m not sure why I kept watching this once I realized this Netflix musical was for and about middle schoolers. I’m not the target market but I once was a 13 year old (who didn’t break out into song randomly) … Continue reading
For a movie called Easter Sunday, this has about as much to do with Easter as my big toe. Also, and perhaps incidentally, I saw this at the theater and there was a trailer for a SUPER gay film called … Continue reading
