Stargirl - S.T.R.I.P.E. television review

Working as a second-half to the show’s pilot, “S.T.R.I.P.E.” offers a proper introduction to Pat‘s (Luke Wilson) robot teased at the end of the first episode as well as Courtney Whitmore (Brec Bassinger) in costume for the first time as Stargirl. Once again, the show downplays high school life, other than a scene to remind us that Courtney is largely ignored by the student population, while focusing on the willful teen embracing her super-hero destiny over Pat’s objections (including a humorous montage where she makes good use of the school’s sewing room to remake Starman’s costume into her own).

Just Okay

Just Friends is less about the love story between Ryan Reynolds and Amy Smart’s characters than about creating situations for Reynolds to deliver sarcastic jokes in his understated style.  It’s a good thing Reynolds is so good at playing the role as the love story falls flatter than a Disney edited Lindsay Lohan. Chris (Ryan Reynolds) was the fat kid in school who was in love with his best friend Jamie (Amy Smart) who never acknowledged or returned his feelings.  After a disasterous post-graduation party Chris leaves hometown Jersey to fly to L.A.
