I have been following Sofia’s journey for over 6 years now and seeing how much she’s grown as an artist is so beautiful. She’s finally getting the recognition she deserves and I couldn’t be more proud of her.

[@idk-uq5gu]

She literally sounds the exact same as the actual song, no autotune needed, just pure talent So glad she's getting the recognition she deserves

You don't understand. I've been a fan of Sofia for years now and seeing her finally get the recognition she deserves is such a joy. She's incredibly talented. She's so beautiful and she's truly humble. I love her. The world should know more about her, and I hope she gets more projects after this film. Thank you, Jimmy, for having her on the show!

Fr, she's grown from her Disney days

[@andreahernandez9385]

This movie was 10/10 in photography, direction, and acting. It is not the most complex love story, which is good because everything happens at the right time and it is not like "We are gonna put the whole story in the last 10 minutes and do your best to understand." You get to see not only their amazing chemistry, but the reason why they fell in love. I watched it with zero expectations and I loved it. This was a good one.

[@jackpotjoy123]

I agree. Zero expectations and boom!! Superb!

[@menage9136]

YES! The pacing of this movie is 10/10, I couldn't believe it is 2 HOURS long. It flies by so quickly and keeps you engaged and is a nice slow build up.

[@khloeg8222]

YES U HIT IT RIGHT ON THE SPOT, it’s so beautifully constructed and I could only help but to feel obsessed with every little detail and the music that puzzled the movie together.

[@b2284]

I agree on almost all of it, as a 30 year diabetic I do have to say some of the diabetic parts like leaving to go test your sugar in the car was so over dramatized but I get why they decided to do that but I had to laugh a little at that part

[@sandbysea]

story was kinda weak for sure

Her voice and singing is so beautiful. I’m glad she’s getting way more recognition, she truly deserves it !🤍

Sofia is a sweet and talented soul, I’ve known her since she was on Disney channel on descendants as Evie, she has a voice that makes me calm and feel like I’m in heaven, her music is amazing as well even I love the songs she did for Purple Hearts as well. She’s an amazing actress and singer, I adore her so much 🤍
