There are many good movies and recommendations on TikTok, trailers, and social media. Some popular movies coming out or have already come out are, Mean Girls, Anyone but You, and many more for any age. One popular movie that’s coming out soon is Despicable Me 4, which comes out on July 3rd!

After interviewing Bayla Hawley, a 9th grader at Fruita 8/9, she says “ I loved the movie Anyone but you. They did an amazing job balancing the cheesy and more realistic, serious acting. It was funny, lighthearted, and a little ridiculous which made it awesome. I think everyone can find some way to relate to the movie… I would absolutely recommend everyone go with their friends and watch it. I would definitely see it again.” Anyone but You is a movie released on December 22nd, 2023, and rated R. The genre is comedy/romance. A short summary of the movie, Bea and Ben have had a great first date but it quickly turns sour. When they unexpectedly find themselves at a wedding in Australia, they pretend to be the perfect couple. 

While talking to 9th-grade, Lexi Reimer, about the new musical, Mean Girls, she said “ I liked the movie. I would recommend it and I would see it again!”  This movie is a spin-off from the original movie starring Lindsey Lohan, made in 2004. The movie is rated PG-13 and is a comedy/drama. 

To conclude, many different movies are coming out and there are lots of reviews to go with them so it is good to keep an open mind about everything because one review might differ from your own opinions.
