Others have described the film. I'm here because I realized I now have a good way to sum up the pros and cons of it: If you liked the divisive Stranger Things 2 episode "The Lost Sister," you will LOVE this movie, which may well have been one of Lost Sister's main influences. You need a high tolerance, and ideally an enjoyment, of awkwardness and intense feeling throughout the film. I'm talking about the kind of overall tone that the average person often finds stilted and preachy, but conveys true joy and wholeheartedness. It's the kind of experience that matches adolescence almost too closely. You also may really like this film if you like high camp, such as "Can't Stop the Music" and the comedy episodes of "Xena: Warrior Princess."
If you are in this film's target audience, you should also see "Pump up the Volume" director Allan Moyle's flawed masterpiece "Times Square," which was largely destroyed by the Robert Stigwood production machine, and thus has limited modern appeal. Enjoy!
