We're about to make a review based on the plot of the movie.
Sierra is clever and aspirational, and struggles to get admitted into Stanford University. Sierra is not a popular girl in her school and many students say that she's unattractive. Sierra has a beautiful and very popular classmate, Veronica. There's a handsome boy named Jamey from another school and he plays football. He doesn't know that Veronica has a boyfriend so he asks for her phone number but Veronica gives Sierra's phone number instead because she wants to avoid Jamey and she also assumes that if Sierra got Jamey's attention, she would feel ashamed.
Jamey intends to text Veronica but instead it is received by Sierra. They exchange messages and they flirt. Sierra understands that Jamey mistakenly believes he's communicating with other person and not her, but she starts to have a crush on him. Sierra tells his best friend Dan that she met a guy but Dan disapproves because he takes that as catfishing and it's illegal for him. Sierra defends herself by saying that Jamey's decisions to attract with her have been based only on his interactions with her.
Sierra talk to Veronica, who's upset after being dumped by her boyfriend, Spence because he considers Veronica to be too dumb. Sierra offers to tutor Veronica, but in exchange she needs to help Sierra continue talking to Jamey. Veronica agrees and they begin tutoring. As they continue helping each other, Sierra learns more about Veronica's stressful family life. Veronica also opens up about how her father abandoned her mother and how it has changed their lives. Veronica has to deal with her cocky mother who pushed her into cheerleading and popularity. There's one night, Jamey video calls Veronica, who appears on the screen but it's Sierra who talks. The video calls ends when Jamey thought Veronica is lagging and as soon as they hang up, Sierra and Veronica laugh together over the fact that it worked. Sierra and Veronica end up being friends.
Jamey asks Sierra, whom he believes to be Veronica to go on a date with him. Veronica goes with him because Sierra told her to. Jamey suddenly tries to kiss Veronica but she tells him to close his eyes and Sierra kisses him instead. Jamey believes that he kissed Veronica.
Veronica is angry at Jamey because he kissed her before a football game. She feels like she's betraying Sierra. Jamey believes that she was the person that he kissed but he doesn't get why Veronica is so angry. Sierra knew about them and assumes that Veronica did that on purpose. She decides to expose that Veronica was dumped by her ex-boyfriend as revenge. During the football game, Veronica angrily tells Jamey the truth. Sierra panicked and attempts to defend herself. As soon as Sierra opens her mouth, Jamey recognizes her voice. He tells both Sierra and Veronica to stay away from him and he leaves.
As an apology, Sierra writes a song called "Sunflower" and sends it to Veronica. Veronica shows up at Jamey's house to make him listen to the song. She tells him that Sierra is a great girl. Jamey decides to forgive Sierra and take her to homecoming with a sunflower. Jamey confesses and admits that Sierra is exactly his type. They go to the homecoming together. Sierra and Veronica see each other and without a word, they reunite by hugging and joined by Dan.
That's it for the plot.
Sierra Burgess Is A Loser is a highschool-set romantic comedy about a teen Sierra on the fringes of the social structure who pretends via text and telephone to be her beautiful, popular rival for the affections of the boy she's crazy about. In addition to the movie's commentary on the split between truth and appearance, heightens the main character's self-discovery. Characters include a "mean girl" a manipulative young sexual predator and a reliable bestfriend. Though there's no nudity or sexual activity, characters kiss and talk about sex and in one case, have had a sexual experience off-screen. Characters trick another character into kissing someone he wasn't expecting to kiss. A teen party scene inludes underage drinking , drinking games and some drunkenness a girl vommits. Fans of Sierra (Shannon Purser) will be very interested to see her in this leading role. I love the scene when Sierra's father give the poem after he listen Sierra's sing Sunflower song.
"Family like this has often a deep sadness in it,
Nature, that great tragic dramastist,
Knits us together by bone and muscle,
And divides us by the subtler web of our brains."

This film helps clarify the fact that a simple click cannot be taken back and can have disastrous results. Why is it important to be aware of the con sequence of internet delivered emotions, such as angry? This is to prevent the occurrence of suicide due to depression.
Lets take a look at the poster's film.
The poster is very simple and stunning, it shows all the main character in one frame. It also quoted "Just Be You" on top of the poster to give a hint abput the movie's storyline. From the poster we can see this movie is about highschool student. It just a simple photo but people will interested when they look at to this poster maybe because of the actor or maybe because they think this film has a good storyline. This only my review for this movie and for the poster.
Thakyou hope you enjoy this blog!!! xoxo
