Jessica Darling's It List Trailers

Jessica Darling – a smart, witty, opinionated girl heading into 7th grade – was never too concerned about where she'd fit in the middle school hierarchy. But before her first day of school, her older sister — the super popular Bethany, now in college—decides to help out by giving her the “It List”—a cheat sheet on how to navigate the middle school maze and rise to the top of the popularity chain. The instructions appear simple enough to follow, but, like life, nothing is as easy as it seems.

Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
HeavenlyCreatures A charming family film with positive messages and lessons for young girls and boys alike. Jessica Darlings it list is a coming of age drama comedy that portrays a young girl starting a new year at school. Realising she has grown apart from her childhood friends - she must start again and try to make new friends of her own. But when she becomes somebody she doesn't like she realises that in life you cannot be anybody but yourself.
Kyle Hurcomb This movie you should show to you kid's. My thoughts behind this statement are as follows. During the film there are multiple points were I thought, "This is not what real life is like at all. Not one living soul has ever had these experiences". Now you may be asking yourself, "why are you recommending this to my child" there is one answer, to confuse the ever loving heck out of em. No one knows how school is going to be like. I didn't so they shouldn't either.
robin12 I have only one thing to ask who made this movie: what were you thinking, It was pretty lame and unrealistic.
Reno Rangan Come on! This is an underrated film for sure. There are lots of children's films that are totally unrealistic. Well, there's no excuse for this film as well. But the thing is it was not like those ones. I'm talking about the clichés. When a film talks about a kid and his/her school life, like to be famous, they tend to do anything to accomplish that. So in this, the girl has her own 'to do' list, that's where the story kicks off.Jessica is a below average girl when it comes to mix with the rest of the school. But she's good at studies and physically fit. Her new attempt to get along with everything like her best friend, Brie, is now a big task of her life. Following the footsteps of her older sister, becoming a cheerleader is the first obstacle. How she fares it and other developments in the tale comes in the latter parts.The film was like 80 minutes long. The storyline was very simple and familiar. But the scenes were slightly fresher. I mean when I thought there will be mean girls in it, it avoided that. Similarly, jealousy, rivalry, the film sidelined them with limits. And ended positively. That's why it was a short and beautiful film. The actors were so good. Emma Ryne looks like a kid version of Blake Lively. I hope they would have a bright future. But I definitely want a sequel. If possible, turn it into a television series. This was based on the novel series, so there are lots tell about Jessica Darling.8/10
