Audience Member Elle Fanning is phenomenal in an overly-familiar story arc the title means both the singing competition and the amount of spirit Violet Valencia has to win so badly she's 17, Polish, lives with her mom whose husband left her, and she wants to get out of the farm-life/diner lifestyle she runs into a former opera singer who sees her as an opportunity to make himself useful since his past was very hard to walk away from Violet is asked why she entered the competition in the first place, she says she likes to sing but what exactly does she want from the whole experience, and more importantly, what does it mean for her after she wins? the movie is amazingly short, full of modern versions of familiar songs, and I was tapping my feet to a lot of them any competition is fierce plus the more experienced singers may overshine you, it's easy to get lost in the fame and success, and it's important to sing from your own heart Fanning is an amazing lead as well as a vocalist and the familiar songs will also be a treat to millenials the movie does its job without overdoing the many cliches Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/20/24 Full Review Victor P Teen Spirit does have a familiar engaging story, but Elle Fanning's vocal-performance was spectacular and it kind of reminds of a combination between a competition of TV reality shows like American Idol and The Voice, and director Max Minghella does a good job with high-energy, wonderful visuals, and great pop songs. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/24 Full Review Michael L Different to expectations based on marketing. Solidly good but the viewer needs to do a lot of work in filling-in the drama of the backstory and the emotional motivations that perhaps could have been explored more in the writing and on screen.
