A highly flawed, occasionally dumb, but fascinating blast of neon, revisionist girl power, and social media wanderlust.

Every line, every twist and every note of music feels painstakingly focus-grouped.

For a movie about someone learning to come out of their shell, Jem and the Holograms is utterly confounding about what it even means to be authentic.

Jem is honest enough in its aims that the sacrilegious divergence from the original material can almost be forgiven.
