Be Somebody Trailers

Pop superstar Jordan Jaye (Matthew Espinosa) has a big dream he just wants to live like a regular teenager. When he's chased down by some excited female fans, he finds a perfect hideout and a reluctant new friend from a small town, high-school art student, Emily Lowe (Sarah Jeffery, Descendants). Despite being from different worlds, they soon discover they have way more in common than they ever imagined. Over the course of several days, the two embark on an unexpected journey of friendship, first love and self-discovery -- proving that maybe opposites really do attract.

It's easy to see that they have tried to make the script as "real" as they could but the result was really cringe-worthy and not real at all. The character of the lead girl (Emily) it's "I want to leave town because everything here sucks, the girls are sl-ts and the boys are just fu-kboys" type of teenage girl, which wouldn't be a huge problem if the script was well-written. The acting, specially of Matthew Spinosa (Jordan Jaye), is just plain bad, it just doesn't seem like real emotions.

This movie was better than what I expected! They should definitely make a second part! I want to know what happens when he comes off tour and if they get into a relationship or not! Matt did an excellent job at acting and I really think he should start doing it. Very pleased with this movie. 10/10. If they make a second movie I would love to see more about Jordans life and more from his point of view. The movie is basically a fan girls fan fiction come to life and yes I did fan girl a little not going to lie , but I would honestly love to see a second part to this movie. If you haven't watched it , go watch it , you won't be let down! And if you're from the UK and want to watch it , they have put it on Netflix.

I completely agree with the other review. I picked this movie because it seemed like something whimsy that didn't need all my attention. But, like the other review also states, I found myself pausing it when I needed to step away and would rewind if I missed something. There were a couple of slow parts and I think you notice them because most movies have a lot more action. Whereas this movie just told a story with a really basic message. Even though it's a teen movie I think the message transcends to any age. You need to see the whole thing to understand why it is good, and after you watch it you think about. The movie left me hopeful. Feels weird but I don't hate it.I took off one star due to a couple awkward scenes that have been over played in all movie plots.

Honestly I don't know why this was even made in the first place the two leads have no chemistry whatsoever, the acting was disgraceful, Emily (Sarah Jeffery) didn't seem to bad but she would probably be better in theater, now on to Jordan (Matthew Espinosa) a huge reason this film was probably even made his 'acting' was by far the worst thing in the film it somehow managed to be worse than the dreadful plot I don't know how he stuffed up such a simple character to play but he did he brought down his co-stars performance and everything felt so forced it was honestly hard to watch.The story line was about as cliché and mediocre as they get, everything was predictable the romance was underwhelming as they did nothing not even a kiss (but honestly the actors would probably have messed that up to) other than that there wasn't really anything that exciting the whole film just seemed like it was a message which overall wasn't to bad it's the delivery of that message which was terrible.Overall the message was fine I'm more surprised how bad the actors were in such a simple role especially Matthew who wants to be 'one of the greats' which is quite laughable since he is a horrendous actor(which I shouldn't even call him an actor as he's not worthy of the title) the only reason this film is a thing was because of his internet popularity he should stick to the internet and please don't do anymore movies cause if he even gets a glimpse of the real Hollywood they will laugh at his 'acting'
