4/10
The Sun Is Also a Star is this generation’s version of Before Sunrise, but nowhere near as endearing or meaningful. I think the best thing that happened/didn’t happen in the movie is these two main characters did not get married to save their situation. I would say this film is a good selection as a date night movie. Considering there was only five of us in the theatre, this was a movie that should have been on Netflix, not given a major release. Yara Shahidi and Charles Melton had decent chemistry, but not enough to win me over or make this a better film.
