I enjoyed The Sun is a Also A Star more than I thought I would, since romance flicks are not in my current job description.
The acting was pretty good, and I will say our two star-crossed lovers had great chemistry. The target audience — teenage girls — will not be disappointed. Charles Melton has the face of a fashion model, and exudes confidence in his role. And every young girl will want the face of Yara Shahidi, or at the very least, her hair.
Parents should feel comfortable taking their teens to see The Sun is Also A Star. It has very little cursing, no explicit love scenes, and no drug use. There is a thread running through the movie of destiny, hope, and perseverance — a good message for teenagers.

I’m giving The Sun is Also A Star a generous B-, based on the expected demographics. Their response to the chemistry between our two stars pretty much drives the movie.
Grade: B-
About The Peetimes: This movie is mainly dialog-driven, making it easy to find 2 good Peetimes — one of which is an Emergency Peetime — coming near the end of the movie.
There are no extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of The Sun Is Also a Star. (What we mean by Anything Extra.)
Rated (PG-13) for some suggestive content and language
Genres: Drama, Romance

Couldn’t live without this app anymore. Perfect to time my run for another glass of wine or two. Works great with my smart watch.
